Obama's values: Obama, larger government, smaller military.

Yes, God help us all. Because his coffers are full and he needs only to spend it to defeat one contender while the republicans have to fight one another and they are looking like fools doing so. Also, Obama can count on 98 percent of the blacks that vote, most of the hispanics, most of the teachers, most of the union voters and a lot of the government workers that vote, toss in the liberal vote, and there may not be enough left to defeat him. Our hope to defeat him is that his supporters stay home.

Carter did not have common sense, he tried to move the nation in what he thought was the right direction, although his view was in error. Obama is attempting to destroy this great country deliberately not move in a good direction.

I believe Carter loved this country, while Obama hates it.

Can you tell me where Newt Gingrich stands on gun control??

Results of Carter's Presidency were unplanned and largely unforseen by him. Obama's results are carefully planned and intentional.

Carter was honestly stupid. Obama is dis-honestly a congenital liar.

I don't know if the America that we all know and love, will survive another Obama term.

Carter was definitely inept but a portion of people cashed in with high interest rates(13%) on C.D.s. Obama is managing to screw everybody while he takes the country down the toilet!!!!

Carter was merely inept. Obama is a Manchurian Candidate, a Socialist/Communist, and an American hater. To allow this treasonous bastard one more term in office is to sound the death-knell of our once-great nation.

He has no values ... He is an Ego-maniacal Narcissist!!!

Hey Al Duda,the topic is Carter vs. Obumma. It is not Gingrich stay on topic.

They BOTH were showmen in public, but Hussein STRUTS; particularly, when he gets off Air Force 1.

Please God Obama won't win another term. And please God take away Reid somehow (Maybe his conscience will get him to resing), Pelosi and many more of the awful politicians set upon destroying America. At least Barney Frank will be out, but it galls me he will be living it up on the taxpayers still, after he had such a profound influence on the destruction of the economy.

No. I must disagree. Obama is doing what he set out to do. He is not incompetent. His systematic destruction of America's freedoms, economic tragedy and his supposedly inattention are well planned and working well. He golfs because he can. Who can tell him what to do? No one. He lets both party's in congress display their greatest talent. Doing nothing and getting the media promote it. We .have elected the worst of us all. Now we pay the price. Vote them all out. None are worth a drop of saliva from rabid bat

The Liar in Chief has no values.

Unfortunately I am afraid that Obama CAN win re-election especially if the Republicans do not get their act together and find someone who has the moral fiber and intelligence (or maybe just public speaking skills)to run against him. I am not thrilled by any of the current choices. God help us if he does get re-elected!

While James Earl Carter clearly harbored socialist inclinations and apologetic view of America he, unlike Barack Hussein Obama, did not possess the arrogance or the will to believe he could destroy the nation's economic and Judeo-Christian pillars.

One black one's white. Obama was never in military, never ran a business, never was a governor, never born with Southern values, wouldn't know grits from a jet fighter, never fought off a swimming violent rabbit, graduated from a liberal college vs. a military academy and Obama thinks peanuts grow in jars as peanut butter.

God help us in 11 1/2 months.

Jimmy Carter was well intentioned but totally unprepared for the presidency. The current occupant is devious, dishonest and totally unAmerican. Carter tried to help resserect the economy but again was totally out of his experience level. The current occupant is doing everything he can to destroy the USA as we know it. His goal is establishing a socialistic government, destroying free enterprise and enslaveing the American people.

His main goal is to destroy our Constitution.

What we're comparing is incompetance vs. outright attacks on society. The current idiot Must be thrown out or we will certainly experience another flesh & blood revolution.

Calling Obama incompetent is a grave error. He has done everything he set out to do: destroy the economy, trample the Constitution, and promote abortion.

He will not leave the office. Do not underestimate him.

It's like the difference I've always maintained between ignorance and stupidity. Ignorance is not knowing something. Everyone is ignorant of something. Lot's of us are ignorant of many things. But stupidity is knowing enough to see that what you're doing or trying isn't working or going to work, but going ahead and doing it anyway, or continuing to do it. Sort of like the definition of crazy being doing the same thing and expecting a different result. Now, I'll leave it up to you to decide who's ignorant and who is just plain stupid. I don't like to use the terms in regards to the office we're discussing. It isn't respectful of the office.

Can Obama win a second term?? God I hope not!!!!

Carter didn't hate Americ and Obama does.

Carter never declared war on American citizens, Obama does that daily.

Carter meant well, but was an absymal leader.

Obama does not mean well. His aim is to crush and bankrupt the United States. The sooner he is removed the better for the salvation of our great

country, and people. He is a giant wrecking ball.

Some people complain about his excessive golfing.

I wish he would live on the golf course 24/7.

Yes Obama can be reelected. We still have the same idiots that voted for him the first time out there occupying anything except a job.

Socialism.

Obama has "created or saved" more wars than any other President, including Pres. Carter.

Obama is a communist. He and all of his friends hate America.

'Nuff said.

We should not succumb to the media and fret over a primary process which doesn't begin for five weeks.

Holy cow! The republican standard bearer has not been selected yet and already we're caving to the MSM who snipe at each Republican Candidate to rise above mediocrity in the polls.

Calmly and deliberately we must decide who is the best candidate to lead this country out of the morass created by successive administrations since the later part of the 18th century. Our fall from greatness began approximately 120 years ago with the dawn of progressive ideas which made otherwise intelligent individuals think there is a way in politics to solve the ills of society. We have reached the nadir of that experiment and now must save our country from the consequeces of our folly.

He exhibits a marxist approach to all things concerning the country and he is supported by a liberal socialist leaning media that works at spreading the socialist proganda and covering all negatives about Obama. When you add in the public school system's approach to education, you then have to agree with Karl Marx's statement, "students are useful idiots". That system works tirelessly to produce emotional driven young people who cannot make objective decisions.

No difference. WE had Americans taken hostage in the Middle East under Carter.The United States is in a sence being held hostage under current and proposed policy of the Obama adminstration. The USA needs a delta force to rescue us. The problem? The people of this great country are the Delta Force. We have guns with no bullets. Ken Keane USNR Retired

Barry was born and raised a MUSLIM,has has consistantly expressed his STORNG MUSLIM FAITH BEFORE he has been corrected by his nedia toads. I believe he is accomplishing exactly what his handlers wanted to destroy the SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL SYSDTEMS IN THIS country. The progressives have been incrementally destroying our liberties and constitutional rights since the 60's.

Both parties have been inculcated by progressive elements and now, neither can be trusted to defend our RIGHTS.

obama is somewhat Black American, Muslimand of the Chicago mob.. Carter is White American, Baptist??... Both failed in the job as President.. neither knows what the truth is. Both set their sites on the Destruction of this Great NATION. Carter caused the death of some 50 Military in what he told the news media the night before the raid to recover some of our prisioners in Iran. As s Navy Admiral said. Carter could not make a pimple on the ass of a Naval Officer( WE ALL Agree). obama being a dedicated Muslim set his sites on destroying this Christian NATION, by bankrupting us, he is almost there now.. Unlike Alla my GOD tells me not to hate others(which is very hard ) However I will continue to tell others about his Muslim beliefs and how they are determined to kill each and every one of the Christians and Jews of this world. If this NATION is to survive then vote him out of the white house along with all of his Muslim/ communist friends..

My God I hope not. If he is, the job will be finished along with the Republic.

Obamas values are "Me". As in himself.

There is a huge difference between Carter and Obama. Carter was a goof ball and had no idea how strange his ideas were and are. Everything Obama does is with a deliberate intent, to cast GOD and JESUS CHRIST, out of America and turn America into a Muslim nation and so far, he has done an excellent job at turning us into a Muslim nation. What he does not know, what he cannot understand, "There is no way to get rid of JESUS CHRIST AND GOD." They are here to stay.

We should not succumb to the media and fret over a primary process which doesn't begin for five weeks.

Holy cow! The republican standard bearer has not been selected yet and already we're caving to the MSM who snipe at each Republican Candidate to rise above mediocrity in the polls.

Obama is a traitor, endorsed by the mass media, hell bent on the total destruction of the greatest country on earth.

Some won't bad mouth Obama out of respect for the office. That's ridiculous! I bad mouth him because of the greatest office in the world that he smears with every breath. I refuse to respect a man elected out of stupidity, corruption, greed and sloth. He is a blight on mankind.

The thing I could never figure out about Jimmy Carter is -- if he is indeed a committed Christian and man of faith -- how he could be a Democrat and continue to support the Democrat agenda. That doesn't make any sense to me, given their support for abortion, homosexuality and numerous other anti-biblical things.

Values? He ain't got no stinking values!

Carter was a Constitutionally "legal" President, natural born citizen who believed in utopia and the idea that other people beside himself should pay for it.

Barak Hussein Obama is a criminal who knowingly broke the law by running for a position of public trust when he was not legally entitled to hold it. His Union thuggery and the DNC committed the biggest form of voter fraud in history and the criminal behavior has continued ever since in every department of the Federal Government.

Obama will win a second term because, unfortunately, we've created a society with too many Americans that are corrupted by the promise of getting more for nothing. Deep in their hearts they know it is wrong and unsustainable but our culture of instant gratification leads us to take what we can get now with the hope that someone else will have to foot the bill. Obama and his croneies will roll out the promises of pork and entitlements and the majority will fall for it.

Jimmy Carter MEANT well, Obama has meant evil, intentionally pushing big government and socialistic programs and attitudes.

The difference? Carter was wrong but thought he right. Obama is wrong and he knows it.

How are they different?

Well, I would have to say that the most obvious difference is that Carter was a joke - a bad joke, in poor taste, but a joke, nonetheless; hell, I remember indulging in Carter-bashing in grade school ("... 'cause Jimmy Carter has a way of screwing up the USA!") - while President Downgrade is an insult, plain and simple.

Carter, when he realized he was in way over his head, had the class to at least not seriously approach the 1980 election seriously. Downgrade is evidently oblivious to thendamage he has caused - or is clearly aware of it and thus the most evil man in American Political history.

Carter's eligibility to serve in the Awful Office was never in question; in many quarters today, von Dupnikov is still unaccepted.

Let me think... Y'know, there is something else... I just cannot put my finger on it... should be staring me right in the eye, too...

Nope, nothin' else...

Considering the current list of candidates for the GOP I have the inate fear that BO will indeed triumph. I don't understand what the socialists think they will have better in their beleagured minds once our freedoms are gone. I would love to see one liberal idiot stand at the podium at Arlington and address the crosses and explain why their sacrifice was in vain. Isn't there anyone we can turn too?

i find that our country is in bad condition, sparked by bush's do-nothing, let things go for the rich, attitude! What with the world in financial trouble, why wouldn't we be having trouble coming out of bush's recession? My only fear is that the right-wingy's may have gained so much power that we might not be able to get things turned around!! The result will be the poor, and middle class will continue to suffer!!

My early synopsis of the 2012 election is that it could go 1 of 3 ways.

1. Romney is chosen as the canidate and Obama will win. To many voter will come out to vote based on his unstable background. "The devil you know", and, "I didn't vote for either canidate", will be common statements/thoughts.

2. Perry is chosen and Obama has to put up a fight but will just barely win. He will draw more voters than Romney due to his fairly constant stnd on things even if they don't agree with him. However there are more folks in the middle who would vote for Obummer again than for that, "murdering, vacinating, Texan", canidate.

3. Somehow Ron Paul is chosen (Please!) and then the fight will be to close to call. Paul's drug and forgien policy views will alienate some of the Republican core. However, he will pull many more voters from the middle who are upset with the current administration and see him as uncorrupted by the system. All the while continuing to uphold and defend the Constitution as he has for his entire career.

Obama's values? Me for me and you for me too. Or else.

Carter and Obama are different in that the one had a prune-sized brain and a heart as big as all outdoors, and the other has an adequate intelligence and an evil mind (heart). Carter, inept as he was, was NOT trying to destroy (out of hatred of this country) the very country that gave him the opportunity to reach the highest office of this great land. Obama is a sociopath who is hell-bent on destroying everything that makes this the greatest country in the world. Of course, after he's done, he'll still be a wealthy man with a pension and Secret Service protection (at taxpayer expense) for life. You and I (and our grandchildren) will be paying for his crimes against the state forever.

You bet he can win!!!!! There are STILL 4 out of every 10 people thinking that he's doing a fine job. How can that possibly be???????

Of course he can. I am consistently amazed at the ability of Republicans to shoot themselves in the foot. Here you have the opportunity to take him on head to head and what will you do? Dither around so as not to make the electorate think you are racist. No, he is incompetent, incapable, and wrong headed. It is time someone told him to his face that he is just plain wrong for this country and to take his brand of socialism to somewhere it is welcome. Not Greece, not Italy, not anywhere it has been tried and failed.

When you prefixed "democratic socialism" with "authoritarian," you created an oxymoron - a self-contradicting expression.

But in doing so, you illustrate the Democratic Party's dilemma when they demand compromise. The Republican Party, so far, has resisted compromising their own democratic/republican principles (found in the Constitution) with the authoritarian measures that Mr. Obama and his Party wish to employ.

Carter was a professing Christian, white, southern with a wife possessing class and he was over his head with the responsibiity of the office. He was surrounded by selected staff who were equally incompetent or worse. Carter who would have been otherwise not electable was elected on a wave of discontent in a knee jerk reaction to the discontent with the previous administration.

Obama, black, mid-western, elected on a wave of discontent with the previous administration who would otherwise not be electable, with a wife who demonstrates enmity toward the USA, who has no class other than that purchased, both of which attended a church for some years, which was lead by a man who demonstrates equal or greater enmity toward the USA. Obama while articulate has a questionable history, shallow experience and demonstrates either a tendency to destroy the USA by design or by incompetence and is not bothered by his and his wife's tendency to present a royal like consumption of taxpayer funds for personal comfort.

In either case we were in trouble with Carter and now with Obama and the likelyhood we'll get out of trouble this time is questionable.

One can prove citizenship, one does not.

I disagree with your perception that Obama is more inept that Carter. I think that Obama has been quite effective in accomplishing his objectives. The problem is that his objectives are detrimental to this country as we know and love it. He campaigned with promises of bringing about fundamental change, and it was clear to those who paid attention what kind of change he wanted. The problem is that he has been too effective in accomplishing his goals.

America as we know it can not survive another Obama term.

If Mitt Romney is the best the Republican Party can do, then it's screwed. Why not re-run McCain? Bob Dole, anyone? Ross Perot?

Someone talk Paul D. Ryan into running. Please. Before it's too late.

0bama's values and objectives match those of many of his constituents who believe that they do not have to accept any personal responsibility for their behavior and the government will stand ready to jump in and bail them out of the resulting negative consequences.

If gamblers were a big democrat voting constituency, 0bama would likely offer to cover any gambling loss with federal handouts.

Carter was well intentioned but over his head. He worked as a peanut farmer and was a governor of a state. Obama has never held a job and never lead people. But, he is lead by many. Among them they are Frank Marshall Davis, bill Ayers, Saul Alynsky, Rev Wright and George Soros.

Carter was a failed leader. Obama is a failed follower.

The difference between Carter and Obama...very

simple, Carter was a Christian and Obama is a

Muslim. But,they and their ideologies did and are now creating severe problems in our country and

around the world.

These problems will be corrected on Nov.6, 2012.

Carter was inept.

Obama is mendacious and malevolent

I disagree with your conclusion that President Obama is more inept than Jimmy Carter.

Both believed that only the government possesses solutions to problems, whereas by contrast Mr. Reagan believed that "government is the problem".

Both men have demonstrated apparent ineptitude on a number of issues, but it is clear that Mr. Obama is determined to accomplish his objectives to destroy the United States as envisioned by our Founders. He has not been inept in this regard. He has fooled far too many citizens for far too long.

I ask God daily to provide us with godly leaders, and I look forward to the day that Mr. Obama leaves the White House as it's resident.

I grew up in Plains, GA often spending time with Jimmy Carter's children who were just a bit younger than I. I was a student in Jimmy Carter's Bible study classes at the age of 10 or 12 at the Plains Baptist Church and can attest that he was indeed of good character. A devout Christian he was but with socialist views which I've failed to understand as I grew older and I now completely disagree with. Somehow he missed in his reading of the Bible that family is to take care of family, that church is to take care of God's children and that government is simply a necessary evil and not the answer to problems the citizens may have - other than protection from military threats. He somehow failed to recognize evil and that a Christian is to 'stampt the dust from their feet' and walk away from those who will not hear the truth.

Values, that's a joke! The only values he has is reaching in someone else's pocket. The man is unethical, incompetent and lazy. The only belief's he has is in sharing everyones money and not working for his own.

Obama is a muslim and a communist and if America is to survive he must be stopped.

The difference between Carter and Obama is this:

Carter loves his country.

General Welsh is quoted as saying, "Leadership is a gift. It's given by those who follow." You have to be worthy of it." I'm sure he knew that was said by General Patton.

Chances of BHO for 2 terms? right now 50/50 for me which are bad odds. The Republicans need to consistently use his record to show his flaws, stick to facts, and not attack each other. they must peel away all those independents who were duped in 2008.

Carter had some conscience and a lot of his misguided moves were dictated by his religious convictions. Obama is a totally immoral, lying, egotistical narcissist. He has never uttered a word that wasn’t either divisive or a lie. And all, of course, were targeted to reelection, to hell with the country.

His mantra, jobs, jobs, jobs, and yet he kicked the can down the road on the pipeline that would have generated 20,000 jobs. Who was that decision hurting? The middle class working man.

Obama is a Marxist and has a deliberate plan to destroy this nation. Carter was just stupid.

With former President Carter it was peanuts- with President Obama his plan for america is just plain nuts.

I would take Carter over Obama. Obama is going down in History as the President who broke the bank and didn't give a Damn. The President who employeed the Commie Czars who broke the Country. 5 Trillion dollars in 3 years is uncalled for and he needs to be booted out of office.

While I hate the idea of him winning, there is a better than 50% chance he will. I believe this because the conservatives are totally under estimating him; just like this article, you are mischaracterizing him as incompetent; he is not. He is in fact a radical socialist who is bent on tearing down and rebuilding an America that we don't want.

The last election cycle you put up John McCain who couldn’t beat George W and now it seems like the republicans are bent on advancing Mitt Romney who couldn’t beat John McCain. Stop recycling non winners.

The two major political parties appear to be incapable of fixing the mess they have created. The only group that seems to stick to principles which puts us a path for a good America is the Tea party. As an independent I blame our government far more than Wall Street. Democrats are ruthless and have a mindset that the end justifies the means; the republicans are weak hypocrites who don’t defend the principals that they claim to believe in.

And both parties seem to think that they can spend more money to get us out of the problems the spending has created, which is total insanity. Unfortunately they have learned that they can spend our money to stay in office. We need to change that and throw everyone out office that has not shown fiscal responsibility.

There have been and are exceptions but rather than supporting these lone wolves you hang them out to dry.

Most voters elected Obama, Reid, Pelosi, Frank, et al. Most voters WANT a government unrestrained by the Constitution. They WANT democratic socialism as a government form. They WANT their children indoctrinated, not educated. They WANT tyranny regardless of the cost to Liberty.

And who said mob rule couldn't happen here?

Carter meant well, even though he had no clue how to proceed. In Obama I have begun to suspect there is something sinister. It seems that he hates this country and is determined to destroy it.

It goes without saying, that Carter was inept. His actions while in office and his subsequent comments all prove that.

I have come to believe that Obama is not only inept but also has an agenda which includes the destruction of our nation. His concealment of his grades while in school tell me that we're probably not dealing with a great brain but rather with someone who is being controlled from the outside. I suspect I know who that person or group of people is and that most thinking people do also. I have come to believe that he is little more than a puppet whose strings are being pulled by one or more of the elite's.

It is truly sad to see how the electorate has been seduced and fooled by a few unscrupulous people. It is even sadder to watch the destruction of a nation that has done so much to lead the world for many years. It is clear that we are leading a nation to our children and grandchildren that is far less than the one we inherited.

Socialism has never worked and never will. Margaret Thatcher summed it up pretty well when she made the statement about how Socialism never works because one soon runs out of other people's money.

Can he be? Absolutely. Will he be? I pray not. The Republicans need to gather round our candidate and fight fight fight for him or her. Four more years of Obama will be more than the beginning of the end for America it will transfer us through the end of the beginning and into the progressive destruction of this great nation.

When you prefixed "democratic socialism" with "authoritarian," you created an oxymoron - a self-contradicting expression.

But in doing so, you illustrate the Democratic Party's dilemma when they demand compromise. The Republican Party, so far, has resisted compromising their own democratic/republican principles (found in the Constitution) with the authoritarian measures that Mr. Obama and his Party wish to employ.

It is unfortunately all too possible for 0 to stay in the White House in 2012. Note, I did not say, "win re-election".

At least Carter is a Christian and believes in God.

the gimmegang almost outnumbers the producers..a bad omen despite the meaningless polls...obamas reelection means doom to our way of life..unemployment will SOAR...industry will flee to the orient..sloth will become a way of life...a worthless brainwashing education will prevail...alduous huxleys brave new world will be welcomed by a braindead culture..the only consolation is that i probably wont be around to see it..very sad end to the last viable civilization on earth...

Carter was to intelligent to lead. He was consumed by minute details that paralized his ability to make a decision. Obama has no affinity for details and prefers a myopic view hundreds of feet above the details. Like Holder and most leftists, Obama thinks this gives him cover to blame everyone but himself. His lack of personal responsibiliy for anything reminds me of the EU waiting on Germany to bail them out rather deal with their addiction to other peoples money.

Perhaps I'm naive, but the main difference between Carter and Obama is that Carter had no intention of bringing down the U.S. unlike Obama, who is determined to ruin this great nation. The axis of evil has migrated to this current White House.

Obama cannot WIN re-election but the expert and professional Chicago (I grew up with them) democrat machine can STEAL the election. They have gone national and have merged with the less talented democrat vote stealers across the nation whom they have been educating in the art of voter fraud. We MUST pay attention to the election process on election day.

Obama is much more of an aggressive socialist than Carter. Carter was trying to continue LBJ’s Great Society, whereas Obama is more of a Marxist or hard line socialist. Obama feels rich people are evil and the poor and less fortunate are entitled to a full and prosperous lifestyle by reaching into the pockets of the working and rich classes. Carter was inept and Obama is malicious and incompetent.

What frost my cookies are the people that say the man is brilliant. He's as dumb as a box of hammers, no common sense and swings a golf club like a girly-man. God help us ! Jim

Carter was profoundly inept and exhibited a disconnect from reality but Obama worships at Lenin's altar!

He is the most dangerous president in the history of this constitutional republic.

Carter was an incompetent, but well-meaning doofus; operating under a deeply flawed set of personal and political suppositions. He was in way over his head, yet did the best he was capable of. He loved his country but didn't really understand what made it work.

Obama is just evil. The best comparison that I can come up with is Pinky and the Brain.

Obama`s values He has none and no soul.

Carter was a poor president, but he got a few things right after trying everything else.

Carter abolished the ICC (Interstate Commerce Commission) thereby freeing competition in trucking and rail freight. That was very good for America.

Carter, in the closing days of his administration, appointed Volker to head the Fed, and Volker, with Reagan's support, pulled the plug on the Fed's printing press, thereby ending the Nixon/Ford/Carter inflation and saving the dollar. That was very very good for America.

The peanut subsidies - not so much. How the heck did they ever justify that?

To paraphrase "The Wizard Of Oz," Carter wasn't a bad man - he was just a bad wizard. Obama, on the other hand...

The impact on America of both Carter and Obama is the same -- decline and loss of individual freedoms. The similarity ends with that. Carter was inept. Obama, the Great Deceiver, is quite competent if one understands that his agenda was to radically change the American landscape so that it conforms to a community activitist's world view.

Of course he can win again, but only through voter

fraud and the stupidity of voters that have no idea

how socialism will affect their way of life. That is

because a percentage of the voting public did not

get a proper education that would alert them to the dire situation this country is now in.

Ask them where are the jobs that were promised, the

transparency of government, respect for our great

republic and the Constitution, the Rule of Law, and

responsibilty for their actions. They can't answer for they have learned that all you need do is to

keep voting and hold your hand out. Your fellow countrymen will provide you with all the essentials

you will need to survive. This is Socialism !!

Wake up, America !!

Carter was an incompetent fool. Obama is something else. He detests everything America stands for, thinks the Constitution is something to work around (in violation if his oath of office), and has no respect for the American people - excepting, of course, the coastal "elites", Socialist fellow travelers, and useful idiots like the "Obamaize" Wall Street rabble. Here's a scary thought: What if he's not incompetent and is doing exactly what he intends?

There are severe differences between Obama and Carter, however both are contributing to the failure of the US. One was inept, one is an enemy of the US.

For those of us who were listening in 2008, Obama told us what he wanted to do, and there was enough information out there then to know what he is. I said back then that this man is dangerous to the US. However most voters only listened to the mouthpiece rather than looking at his prior actions and statements.

As we know, the media (also socialist) elected Obama, and they are obviously campaigning again for his re-election.

Carter, I think, was following the democrat/socialist agenda, and was not truly trying to defeat America. He just didn't/doesn't know any better.

Obama is following the democrat/socialist/racist agenda as spewed from his handlers. He is probably more militant against America rather than just "democratic/socialist". Their intent is to destroy our way of life... on purpose.

These people are all enemies of the US. They should all be brought up on charges and put in jail - at the least. The democrats, supreme court justices, federal judges, czars, along with some republicans, all of whom do not follow the Constitution in voting and upholding the laws should be incarcerated.

I just don't understand why the Republican congress-members are complicit with the Obama administration. Why are they not challenging him?

If this country is to survive, we must take a stand now; prosecute them, so that this will never happen again in this country.

As I keep saying, 2012 is too late.

I also make one other prediction - The republicans and Tea Party better prepare for the election by attacking the democratic/socialist platforms, rather than only preparing to defeat Obama. I believe he will not be the one that they will be campaigning against.

Of course Obama can win the White House again and will likely do so. He is the provider of the goodies . . . Uncle Sugar. As long as the Republicans fail to provide a real alternative to run away socialism, the left will remain an active and viable force, even if not in the White House.

George Washington warned us about the evils of "party" and they have come to pass. The establishment, old guard Republican party has ceded the debate on the role of the federal government to the radical left, and consequently, there is no longer a "middle." If you are against the eutopian ideas of the left, you are an ignorant racist. If you support a constitutionally limited federal government, you are an ignorant racist. If you support the concept of federalism, you are an ignorant racist.

If we are stuck with a two-party system, as we seem to be, our only chance is to take back the Republican party from those that want to be "less socialist", and put it in the hands of true "republicans." We need a candidate that is not afraid to drag the debate back to the middle. This candidate will have to fight the socialist media, the leftist establishment and the Republican party leadership.

The odds are against success and I grow more pessimistic with each day and each Republican debate.

Obama most certainly can win the election if the republicans continue to beat each other up, trying to convince the American people that none of them are ready to lead us. Some one from the right needs to start reminding the public why we cannot afford any more Obama and counteract the liberal press that is working so hard to re-elect him. This man is a direct threat to the preservation of our way of life, but all of his opponents are only attacking each other, not the real problem. Someone needs to wake up and start leading the fight to defeat Obama and quit trying to destroy every other candidate. Remember Regan was elected with a large majority and he refused to slander any other party members. He ran against his opponent from the left, who like Obama, had provided so much ready ammunition to fuel an assault.

Realizing Obama gave a national speech on Thanksgiving without ever mentioning God ia all you need to know about this usurper, to understand what his values are about. That, and the fact that he is not "natural born" and knew it, thereby gaining office illegally by violating the Constitution (with collusion of Nancy Pelosi as chairperson of the DNC which certified him for candidacy, knowing he was not eligible) simply stand as the top two reasons he is different from Carter.

Unfortunately, they, at the same timea, lso share the same ineptitude at being a strong President leading the country, and well as egos and vanities that far exceed their abilities.

At least Carter was "his own man", as opposed to Obama, who is a puppet of all of those who had a stong effects upon his life, and has a cabal which has literally be responsible for most of his destructive actions against the well being of our country.

May God once again show us his favor by not letting this man be reelected. Should that happen, I believe it would lead to our ultimate demise. All of us who believe in God should pray for his help and forgiveness not to let this man be reelected.

At least Carter was just stupid, Obummer is a Muslim terrorist with no interest in our Constitution. He should be impeached NOW.

There is such a difference between actual facts, and then the ones that are clearly 'made up' like the ones presented in this opinion piece.

I am so thankful for the public getting some intelligence back and seeing these talking points for what they are...talking points.

Reagan spent 3 trillion dollars and left Bush I a massive deficit.

Clinton gave Bush II a surplus and a decade of the largest economic expansion the Country has ever seen. Yea, Clinton...not Reagan, created 23 million jobs AND balanced the budget.

After Bush and the Republicans, the auto industry and banking industry were collapsed. We were in the midst of two wars, 911 happened, and the country was shedding 750,000 jobs per month. Not to mention spending an additional 5 trillion dollars.

No man, woman, or God could fix that sort of mess within a few years. We are back on the right path, and hopefully in a few years more and more folks will realize the failurs and devastation that our growing income inequality has caused this nation.

We should all try to live in a 'WE' society instead of a 'ME' society.

Greed has and always will be this country's undoing and in the 80's, under Reagan, the top were much better off and the middle class was on the verge of destruction.

Thanks

Carter was demonstatively bright. You can't become nuke qualified without being really smart. Obama not so much. It is only the media saying he is smart. He won't even release his collegate records (if they even exist) to show he is/was smart.

Fresh out of College in 1979(having worked the entire way through I will add), when I heard the Malise speach by then president Carter. The very next day I went to the SOE and changed party affiliation to Republican. I was delighted to vote in the best president of my lifetime Ronald Reagan and I have NEVER considered changing back. There will be more like me this time too.. Just my thoughts.. gk

Can Obama Win Another Term?

Yes. I honestly believe he can - if America does not experience a cranial extraction SOON.

If WE, THE PEOPLE do not exercise our power to become informed and active on that information, then we will be begging for another four years of this. Of course, it shall be possible to remove him then - but much harder.

The election cycle is the breaking point. That is the weakest point - and that is where the break will be easiest and cleanest.

Carter was an educated man who was well meaning, but quite inept at doing anything except creating well-intentioned circumstances. While I was in the Navy, Carter's regime instituted a diversity-oriented "racial awareness" program. It was designed to show us that there were differences in people's values and thought processes, among other things. What it did was accentuate the differences and, as all diversity programs, provide for divisiveness between the participating races. For the first time that I can remember, instead of Americans, there were White-Americans, African-Americans, etc.

Obama is an educated man who plays this hyphenated American card to the fullest extent and is creating more divisiveness to further his agenda, which is the bringing down of America.

While many scholars believe that Carter had good intentions for the country but is considered the worst president in history with the exception of our new leader, I believe that B. Hussein Obama's intentions are purely to undermine the Constitution and American way of life. His books revealed a lot about him that people missed while surrounding himself with radicals, extremists, and Marxists. I believe that he wants to break down the system with the help of his community organizing system & unions.

Obama does not like this country, he sees it as evil. Carter was wrong about a lot of things but I saw nothing that indicated he disliked America.

Carter, for all his stupidity and naiveté, was at least an American who wanted the best for Americans. Carter was not a cunning traitor seeking to destroy America.

Obama hates God and America and white people. He is a traitor who will do everything he can to destroy America. The fraudulent photo-shopped “birth certificate” that he reluctantly presented is absolute proof that there is something very important relating to his qualifications to serve as president that requires him to conceal his real birth certificate.

Obama is NOT INCOMPETENT. Obama is accomplishing his objectives. They just weren't the ones of most Americans. His campaign website in 2007, in the top right hand corner, said (condensed version) he would overturn the foundations of this nation...that it would be painful for a while; but, to hang in there with him and it would get better. So, he has changed the medical world, he has changed the banking world, he has changed the auto manufacturing world, he has changed the energy production world...taking us further from a self sufficient country to one dependent on its enemies, he has changed the definition of marriage, he has changed the military's view on homosexuality, he has changed the military from a fighting machine to a social needs provider, he has dumbed down NASA to ending its discoveries for the US to assisting enemy nations to improve their self esteem over their science, he has taken down the influence of Christianity, he is attacking capitalism and trying take America into socialism and communism, he is ignoring the constitution and the laws of the land. He said he would be transparent; but, he has continued the Washington corruption on a larger scale than anyone else has ever done. He truly is a "Citizen of the World" which is how he referred to himself in a speech made in Amsterdam prior to his election to the presidency. Americans have had their heads buried in the sand assuming things would work out for the better. WAKE UP!

Carter had the minimum requirement to be a POTUS, credentials and a BC. He may have been a idelogical ignoramus but he was qualified and vetted before he reached office.

This Mysery Man may as well be called a fraud,among his other traits he has displayed, he is niether qualified by credential, BC or vetted, he also is a idelogical idiot but with a gangsta mentality and has no legal right by law to hold this office.

This is about as similiar as one can make this comparison.

I believe Carter loved America inspite of making wrong decisions for America. I do not believe Obama loves this country as much as himself. They had entirely different focuses.

His values of social and economic re-distribution of wealth are reflective of his fatherless upbringing and the bohemian lifestyle of his mother. When parents choose to be "different" in spite of their own rearing, the children always suffer. The fact that he has always been on the Government dole or the "scholarships" he has received proves his lack of willingness to do an honest days work.

Carter was actually and completely inept. Obama, on the other hand, is absolutely and completely dishonest! In New Jersey Criminal Law, his actions personify Malice aforethought. It is as though America voted-in a person who has put together a 'team' of people who are playing at government. They're enabled by our corrupt Congress and Supreme Court. Until we return to recognizing God as the Power He is, and return to strict Constitutional Government, we will continue to fall prey to all the evils we now suffer. "Nothing changes, if nothing changes."

MERRY CHRISTMAS to all.

Carter:

1) Avowed, Public, Active Christian

2) Admitted multiple times to his failings.

3) Dominated in his prior work by a Overwhelming, practical boss

4) Married to a woman who tried to support him.

5) Untrained and incompetent to be President.

BHO:

1) Avowed non-practicing Christian.

2) Has never admitted to making a mistake

(except in underestimated his oppnents).

3) Dominated in his prior work by a series of Overwhelming radical bosses.

4) Married to a woman who has - as written in her Princton thesis - hew own radical agenda.

5) Untrained and incompetent to be President.

Be watchful for 0bama to retain power by other means if the elections don't go his way. Like Putin, he will not easily relinquish his post. If you think otherwise, you don't truly understand the nature of this “beast”.

The Mysery Man under the proper circumstances could win a second term. A violent communist overthrow of the government, declaring himself dictator for life and of course if hell freezes over...I politely decline to select any of the above.

Carter was misguided and inept, but in all likelihood he meant well. Obama, on the other hand, may be inept but he intends the harm he causes. We must stop believing that the Left is still well meaning but incompetent or misguided. Currently, the Left is hell-bent on destroying this country as we now know it. They wish to destroy Capitalism and replace it with the universal misery that is Marxism. I'll leave the "why" of it to better minds to figure out. What I do know, though, is that to expect solutions for the problems we face to come from the people who created the problems in the first place... is pure folly. Letting Frank, Dodd and company work out the "fix" is all but criminal.

Carter put forth an image to America that he was the kind old Uncle.. in reality he was an egotistical fool that knew nothing about economics and was wrong about foreign policy. Obama? he's just a plain narcissistic Marxist, that wants to destroy the America we know, and make it HIS Amerika.

I cannot understand how a person so anti American could fool so many people and become President of these United States of America.If we elect him for a second term, we the people must surely be crazy and deserve the results that will surely follow. I feel he has full intentions of taking all freedom and greatness from the USA.

I truly believe that our very foundation of life hangs in the balance-with Obama we will disintergrate into communist/socialist slavery. OUR ONLY HOPE RIGHT NOW IS TO ELECT A REAL CONSERVATIVE PRESIDENT.........AND A CONSERVATIVE CONGRESS. Even if all our wants and wishes were to be granted, we still face a very hard fight against the VERY corrupt press and the VERY corrupt federal reserve system--they are the ones pulling the "strings"/ WE NEED A RESTORATION OF all things-we will be free or die...God help us to choose the right.

Absolutley nothing. Both are imbeciles.

Carter was inept. Obama is not incompetent. Corrupt, yes. Unethical, yes. Determined to bypass congress and run the country like a Chinese emperor, yes. But he knows exactly what he is doing and why.

Despite Obama's current low ratings, once party loyalty, mainstream media support, induced class envy, mud slinging, voter fraud,and the 35% socialistic/communistic/parasitic population are all factored in, he still has a better than 50% chance at reelection.

Many conservative hating leftsts may be dissattisfied with some of his policies and performance, but their hatred of Republicans will not allow them to vote for a Republican.

The only apparent one I can observe is that of holding his immediate family togther...he certainly can't hold a nation together. He values undermining, divisiveness, and he appears to definitely value himself...for whatever reasons are obscure to me!

Yes, Hussein will be re-elected! The National Socialist Party (a.k.a. Democratic Party) has slowly, patiently since the 1930s built an entitlement-based constituency that in 2008 became the majority of voters.

Pre-2008 America and its work-ethic values are gone.

They are not different. They are both totally destructive of freedom and the capitalist economic system. It's like saying you can be a little bit pregnant! No, you can't. Perhaps you would die more slowly under Carter but death would be the same under either of them.

this excuse for an american president has only one goal-and that is to marxicise the usa--the man is a liar supported by state and government unions who have lost all honest thinking and allegiance to the success of this country--

it is so sad to compare carter with obama-

Obama should not win again ... unless the Republican Party (conservatives & patriots included) screw things up by nominating the wrong candidate. There comes a time when we have to stop saying "I'll go with the lessor of the evils because he can get elected over Obama." The great Silent Majority of this country is ready for an honest,intelligent, experienced, conservative candidate who is ethical and does not have a ton of baggage to overcome. One by one we see these candidates fall by the wayside as they get uncovered as moderates or have other deep flaws that prevent them from being acclaimed as someone worthy of being our President. Finally, under the radar, as they say, comes the stealth candidate who has what we really need in terms of harsh medicine that is required to get our house in fiscal order. That man is Ron Paul. Patriot Post needs to reevaluate their selection criteria and get behind what we need ... not stretch out the continued search for someone that matches your vision 100%, but someone who can get the job done.

Unfortunately, Yes. Americans must want personal responsibility and freedom, and many do not. The 43% who pay no tax are happy just the way it is with Obama's class warfare. Blacks unwittingly will vote for Obama since he is half black. Hispanics will vote Obama since he at least tells them he is for letting the Illegal immigrants stay here.

If America is going to turn it around now is the time!

Unfortunately, yes he can. We are at a point where the "Makers" are outnumbered by the "Takers". I only hope that Independent voters educate themselves prior to November 2012 and that they can see through all of the slanted left wing propaganda put out by our Main Stream Media!!!!!

OBAMA IS DOING EXACTLY WHAT HE PLANNED TO MDO. HE IS ATTEMPTING TO SET THE TABLE FOR THE U.S TO BE A EUTO STYLE SOCIALIST NATION. HE IS EVIL. AND IF HE IS NOT SOUNDLY DEFEATED IN NOVEMBER, WE ARE DOOMED.

The major difference is, Carter was defeated and is no longer in office. Obama has not yet been defeated so he is the current leader of the USSA.

At least Carter can now hold his head high as he is no longer the worst president in history.

I am a Business Owner in the Financial Services industry. I'm in my 35th year of my business. The last couple years have been terrible for me. My income is still ok, not great, but to keep it ok, I've had to really work a lot harder. Most of my failures in the last couple years have come as a result of people afraid to move forward because of uncertanity in the economy.

I never voted for Obama, would never support him and am getting tired of living in an "Obamanation"!!

Even Democrats are grumbling!

May we be blessed WITHOUT a second term Obama presidency.

Carter was and is a buffoon, inept and wrong on more levels than can be counted.

It would be a mistake to compare the two, as Barry-O uses the appearance of dysfunction and malfeasance to mask his true agenda.

The Fraud-in-Chief and his minions are being handled,

and what seems to many people as foolish, ill-informed decisions by an unqualified group of politicos is in fact a furthering of a well thought out plan.

Do not let the pretense of this group of traitors bumbling from conundrum to crisis deceive you.

We are being flim-flammed!

First off, President Carter meant no harm to our country and I do believe, sincerely, he loves the USA. Whereas, Obozo wants to bring down the USA and has no love for this country what so ever; he despises what it stands for. Granted, President Carter wasn't the best president but he far out shines that despicable individual who is now taking up space in the Oval Office.

I served under Jimmy Carter. He was a disaster, weakening our military to the point of severity. He was so inept that the standing joke among the military was, if the Russians called on the Red Phone and told Carter to surrender, he might. Make no mistake Obama is much more dangerous than Jimmy Carter. Because from all of what I have read about him, he does not like America, he even resented his mother because she was white and he resents whites plain and simple. Obama views the U.S. a rogue elephant who needs to be taken to her knees and a military that has grown too powerful and the American military machine needs to be dismantled. No suprises with this guy, just do some reading and learn how many of his closest advisors have ties to the Communist Party. Alot of people call Obama a Socialist, don't we wish that was all he was. When Obama had the bust of Winston Churchill returned was a huge insult to one our closest allies, but when you have studied Obama, you can understand his disdain of the West in general as well as contempt for the country that has done everything for him. Someone recently asked me after serving 26 1/2 years if I would do it again. Absolutely but let me preface that, but not since Obama has been President, I am totally disappointed and ashamed that a person of his background and associates found his way to the highest office of the U.S.

Obama stews about injustices that he never personally experienced and feeds his warped worldview by withdrawing into a "smaller and smaller coil of rage." He lives with a "nightmare vision" of black powerlessness.

Obama says that the hate doesn't go away. "It formed a counter-narrative buried deep within each person and at the center of which stood white people -- some cruel, some ignorant, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives." No matter how much of this hatred was influenced by his father and others, it was further learned at the church he chose to attend for 20 years.

Thank's Mr Alexander;

It's wonderful to have Wise Intellagent People in this world. I know there are many but YOU sir are alway's there to keep thing's streaght for unintellagent foke like me!!!

Thank's again.

Carter only liquidated killer bunny rabbits, Barry is killing America!

Carter had no idea what he was doing or going to do. Totally inept.

Obama knows exactly what he is doing and would like to do, given four more years. In his eyes America must pay for it's past sins.

Mr Feldbush in all due respect, Ron Paul should scare the living daylights out of you. One minute he says something that makes sense, gets cheers from a crowd of over and or under educated crowd of Post Turtles, then Ron falls off the cliff with something crazy. He is not ready for prime time and If I still lived in Texas, I would move the hell away from his District. I am sure you remember Ross Perot who put Clinton in office by running in third party, and Ron Paul has hinted at the same thing. Scary scenario right, Guarantees IMAM Obama another term.

Carter was a misguided true American but Obama is a misguided foreigner with a Marxist ideolog for the distruction of America as we have known it for 235 years. He is a globalist one world government advocate being controlled as a puppet from outside sources. 4 more years of him and America is done!

Is all the PP can do is rant against Democrats? How about some the positive leadership and accomplishments from the conservative side? There is a Republican majority in congress, what have they done that is positive? Can you write about that? How are you going to fill your pages if a Republican is elected president?

Obama has already funded his campaign. Were do you think most of all the stimulis funds went? Why, to his croanies who will pour tons of that cash into his coffers.

I just pray that it still won't be enough to fool the majority of voters again.

Sir;

Mr.Obama is not incompetant, he has an agenda that mandates the destruction of our way of life and the freedoms we have been willing to defend with our young men and women over the past two hundred plus years!

Carter was dumb. He had no clue. Obama is as dumb as a fox. He knows exactly WHAT he is doing. He's an avowed Sol Alynski Socialist and an avowed Davis Marxist.

He's not incompetent. Unfortunately for America, he's been quite successful.

President Obama makes President Carter look like a Saint!!

Yes he can win because we don't have aviable competitor other than ROn Paul who the media will not permit to win.

Unlike Carter who was and is a loyal American (albeit misled), Obama is a usurper who is following an agenda which is tailored to bring this country down ala "The Manchurian Candidate".

The only recognizable difference that I can see immediately is that Carter claimed to be a Baptist and Obama is a Muslim. Allow me to make another analysis; If we don't nominate and elect Ron Paul as President in 2012 it will just be business as usual. because Gingrich is a member of the Tri-lateral commission.

No sense speaking about Obama's Values, he do not have any, plain and simple.

Carter was a Christian, Obama is certainly not. It could be said he is Muslim, as his father was. that's the rub, this is a Judeao Christian nation. Where is Obama? Not worthy of the office he holds.

BO-BS (Barak Obama-Barry Soetoro) is a non-American, Anti-American, Anti-Christ. When the majority of the American voters elect such a deceiver, it exposes the depth of the declining American culture. BO-BS must be removed from office, by impeachment or citizen vote, or America is lost! And with him, must go every person in Congress who voted for & sustained his dictatorial socialist policies and actions. There is no room or time for political party business as usual. Remove him and all of his Congressional supporters!! BW

Let's pray that Obama does not get reelected. Our country is spiriling downhill with Obama at the helm. We need honest leadership to get back of track. We will never get honesty with Obama.

There are glaring differences between Presidents Carter and Obama, namely: 1) Carter served this great nation in the U.S. Navy--Obama did not; 2) Carter actually worked for a living, prior to becoming a "public servant;" 3) Carter had executive experience-Obama did not. Carter's accomplishments notwithstanding, he was still a colossal failure as POTUS. What is the old saying? "Ideas have consequences."

Yes, Obama can get re-elected. If he steals the election. Look at his constitutency: 96% of the black vote (Cain could have taken 10-15% of it...but it looks like he will quit), Left wingers starting with the Communists, Unions, wellfare recepients, federal employees, democrats/progressives, majority of women, teachers, academia,...do I have to go on? We The People better get to the voting booth....!

If this socialist trained, Soros selected pawn is elected again there is no doubt the country is GONE!

The liberals, Hollywood types and inherited wealth folks do not have the smarts to realize they will be the FIRST to go when the country falls to socialism. They seem to be brainwashed as bad or worse than some of the union members who can't see tthey have priced themselves out of the market.

At the very least, Carter was liberal, but in no way a follower of

communisum.

The difference is that Obama intends to destroy the American way of life, collapse our economy, convert our free country into a communist dictatorship through any means necessary, while Carter meant well for the country, he was just stupid!

The difference between Carter and Obama is simply that Carter was a leftwing extremist President who believed his Social Justice efforts would work. Obama is a Progressive Liberal Communist who hates America and is systematically and intentionally using the Cloward-Piven methodology to overload and collapse the U.S. monetary system and reducing America to a third world country with a president-for-life dictator.

This destruction of the American monetary system is achieved by reducing jobs while simultaneously increasing entitlements to where over 50% of the pupulation is almost totally dependent on the government for their survival. Who do you think they will vote for. By the way, we are now at almost 50% of the population on the government doll!

I disagree that the Kenyan marxist is "incompetent". My perception is that he entered the office with the goals of destroying the American middle class, rendering our military incapable of sustaining a war and reducing our economy and standard of living to those of a third world nation. He is well on the way to achieving all three. it is not incompetence that is driving the results of this administration but rather the willful actions to destroy the country.

Easy. Carter is not a Marxist.

BHO says it's our fault.

Well, ya got that right, pilgrim. It's our fault because too many of us voted for ya.

The comparison is unfair to Carter. Carter while inept at least had the the American spirit and even though a Democrat he would never dream of turning the United States into a typical Socialist country in which the government knows best and can control all of our thoughts and actions.

Obama, through his background from his mother and farther, his grandparents and uncle Fred as well as his Chicago church and the usual Socialist thinking associates and professors, seems to believe that a Socialist government is best and if congress is standing in the way of achieving it,use Executive orders and run away commissions and agencies to accomplish it. Our founders formed the country to do away with strong central government control and here we are in 2011 returning to it. So much for a government of the people, be the people and for the people.

Both from the same Socialist cloth

The one way Obama could "win" the 2012 election would be to either steal it outright or corrupt the electoral college. Both are possibilities at this moment.

If we want to defeat Obama we need to publish and air his own words in his own voice. All the money in his campaign war chest can't help him if the American people see and hear for themselves the un-edited, without the teleprompter, version of who he really is, and what he stands for. And, while we are at it we also need to defeat his willing accomplices in the House and Senate.

Obama has no clue !!!!

Carter was a good-hearted, caring American who was confused about the way the world works.

Obama is a self-centered, foreigner who hates what America stands for and is actively (but surreptitiously) working for the collapse of the USA.

Jimmy Carter wasn't trying to destroy our country but that was Barack Obama's intention from the beginning. Why those who voted for him couldn't see this is beyond me. He stated his intentions from the beginning but they and the mainstream media turned a blind eye. America, please wake up before it's too late.

Carter was just plain incompetent. He couldn't run the corner store much less the Wal-Mart.

Obama, on the other hand, is treacherous. He knows the seeds must be planted, then nourished to grow a socialist/marxist society anxious to be controlled by a regime determined to rob us of our freedoms one by one. Obama heralds big government as the solution to all problems. He destroys private enterprise as a hobby and gives the spoils to his loyal union minions.

He chooses the worst traits of mankind and trumpets them as tolerant and all inclusive. We must accept the perversion of open homosexuality or we are homophobic. We must accept that all corporations are inherently evil or we are blind. We must accept that the rich got rich by stealing from the poor or we are stupid and uninformed.

Unfortunately the products of our education system believe these lies and misrepresentations. They are the useful idiots.

I am sure Obama can win another term. (Not only am I sure ...I am terrified for my adult children and grandchildren.)

With a billion dollars, voter fraud,and Obama zombies all we can do is vote, pray and buy ammo.

Another Obama robbery of the tax payers to pay his contributors. Why can't congress impeach Obama and get rid of his appointed radicals.

REPORT: ENGINEERING FIRM ‘CH2M HILL’ CUT THOUSANDS OF JOBS AFTER RECEIVING $2 BILLION IN STIMULU

Obama has evolved to be like a "third world dictator." Carter didn't seem to be that to me.

There is a big difference between not getting things done at all and doing the wrong things. Obama had made all the wrong moves. We have a dicatator for the Executive Branch,s Legislative Branch called Congress that can't get anything done, and a Judiciary Brach that will not enforce the law. What kind of a mix is that? Wow!

Can Obama win a second term? It is possible but I think a more important question is: Can true conservatives win majorities in both houses of Congress? Should conservatives win Congress and Obama win a second term, that second term wouldn’t last any longer than the impeachment proceedings against Obama.

I may be a group of one that believes this and that's fine but... I do not believe Obama is incompetent. I believe he is doing exactly what he set out to do to the nation he detests! And that is our destruction I believe him to be a puppet... and the puppet masters are very successful. America is failing. And those in power do nothing to prevent his unconstitutional actions!! No one could fail accidently at everything he touches as much as Obama has done. I remember quite some time ago hearing him say something like, "My plans are working." He is destroying our ability to get our own energy. He is destroying our health care, our investments, our jobs, our small businesses, the middle class, and what's left! He is spending our money like it has an eternal source...giving it away to his personal cronies! He and his family travel the world like they are royalty. He encourages revolt in our streets and cities, as those involved as being frustrated, but law abiding Tea Party folks were terrorists!. He surrounds himself with Communists. And you think he is incompetent?

Carter was dumb

Obama is STUPID

The obvious differences aside;,Carter was born and raised in one of the originak Colonies expectantly with values we all understand and cherish. Only God knows where and into what culture Obama was born and to what values he adheres, beside Socialism, Communism and the Gay lifestyle Certainly Carter was at best inept, at worst stupid and arrogant. Obama demonstrates a total disregard for American values, adhere to some of the very worst and most disgusting practices known to man. He too is an arrogant and narcissistic atheist possessing no Chroistian charity or love of God.He must be IMPEACHED, and not allowed to retire on our dime with the undeserved honor of ex-president and a lifetime retirement of $199, 000 plus benefits. Obama is, in my opinion the absolute worst creature a bunch of starry-eyed fools could have ever elected. His Impeachmentt would remove him from the dole and his deportation the stench he brought with him. He has dishonored everything American with which he has come in contact. Benedict Arnold was a hero compared to both Obama and Carter.

Jimmy Carter gave us trucking and airline deregulation. He also appointed Paul Volcker to the Fed who did the hard work of wringing double-digit inflation out of the economy much to Reagan's (and America's) benefit. Hard to imagine Obama doing either of those things.

But let's not get too carried away with Carter nostalgia. He was and is an insipid and supercilious nag. He has been an awful ex-president; completely void of grace and class. Plus he compares Israeli security measures to South African apartheid and has shown a soft spot for ruthless thugs like Castro, Chavez and more than one Arab potentate.

Carter is white; Obama is beautifully black!! Therefore excuses for Obama is more appropriate!!, otherwise you are a raCIST!!

For all his misguided policies, I believe that Jimmy Carter sincerely wanted the best for America. I can strongly disagree with his politics and still consider him a good person and a proud American.

I believe that Barack Obama is not as incompetent as he is knowingly subverting America's interests in favor of a global agenda. I don't think he holds any loyalty at all to America or our Constitution.

BHusseinO is a communist, muslim, socialist, marxist, dictator. He has no values!

The greatest difference I see between Israel-hating Carter and Israel-hating Obama is that Carter professed to being a Christian. As to leadership, neither one could lead a dog to play. Obama is a socialist -- I never figured out what Carter was. But after leaving office, Carter did something useful in building houses for the poor -- can Obama? Frankly, I doubt it.

Obama is not inept or stupid. He simply has a different agenda and is right on track to make sure America is not a colonialist nation. Please read the roots of Obamas rage and his actions become quit clear.

Can Obama win a second term?

Good God, I hope not.

Obama is younger.....

I can't wait to read Obama's next book, "The Deconstruction of The USA".

I have always considered Jimmy Carter as an innocent, both in our way of thinking,good not evil. And also in the Latin way of thinking, not knowing.

By contrast, BO in my thinking is mentally challenged or a traitor; it could be both I suppose.

There is not much difference in Carter and Obama. The way they look is about the only difference I can see. One claims to be a Christian and one is a Muslim. They are both idiots except Obama told the sheeple what he intended to do to our country and Carter lied about his intentions. The ideology is the same for both idiots, except Obama is working at a much faster pace. The state of the economy under both is the same - horrible.

GOD in Heaven I hope not!!!!!

Carter was smarter and more honest than Obama.

Gary

Obama is a Socialist.Truth is not one of his values.

Gary

Obama is clueless as to a Presidents role ; Re-electing him could trigger the downfall of the United States. I firmly believe this man hates our country and would anything to destroy it.

Of course he can.

Obama is doing exactly what he and his minions have set out to do.

Crash our financial system, take control of the private sector, take over our health care system, destroy our Constitution.

Our rights are being taken from us with every piece of legislation.

He is behind the scenes pushing for chaos in the streets.

Oh yes he knows exactly what he is doing!!!

Hang on folks this is going to be very dangerous in a few more months.

Hopefully we will survive for another year.

cy

Obama will be re-elected if the Republicans don't address the issues this country is facing because of attacking each other. They need to attack Obama's failures and not each others. We already know what all their makeup is and their past performance. Some of the Republican candidates are no better than the current demon in office. That needs to change....why is it we keep getting those same rejects placed before us on the ballot time and time again and somehow they survive our rejection!

Of course he can win ... those dependent on government handouts are not likely to vote against the man who wants them to continue, or make them even juicier ... there are millions of illegals who, if Obama has his way, will be standing in line with you at the polling places ... and even if he's convinced to step down, the spectre of Hillary stands in the wings, just waiting to ride in on her broom to continue Obama's good works ... if a Republican doesn't win the presidency next year, we are doomed; this country will slide down the tube greased by Rome, Sparta, Spain and even the U.K., and the dreams we've shared for so long will be gone. If I believed in God, I'd say God help us ... but we need to help ourselves and make sure that Obama and the Democrats are sent packing ...

Of course he can.

"No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people."

It was true then, and with the help of the mainstream media (yes, that includes Hannity and company) it is even more true now.

Yes he will because there will be enough stupid and ignorant Americans who will vote for this socialist radical because he will pander to the 'entitlist' mentality of the leeches in our country. It will be the last nail in the coffin for America. As Norman Mattoon Thomas stated in 1944 when he addressed the nation while running for President,"The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism, but under the name of "liberalism", 'they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened'. 'I no longer need to run as a Presidential candidate for the Socialist Party. The Democrat Party has adopted our platform.'

It is obvious to all that if the Democratic party does not carry the black vote it will never win another election. By contrast if the Republican party does not carry the conservative vote it will not win another election. Barack Obama has the black vote. Can the Republicans produce a candidate that the conservatives can back? If not, Obama has his second term.

Carter was white and Obama is RED and perfers islam over Christianity.

Plus...we ask Carter to leave but we are going to through Obama OUT!!!!!

Carter was totally inept, but was seen at least as a man of integrity and honestly- albeit honestly wrong. Obama, however, has displayed the fact that he is ruthless, self-absorbed, and will not let any moral scruples get in the way of his quest for a second term. He is a true student of Saul Alinsky, and so he will use all means at his disposal to destroy anybody and any thing that gets in the way of this goal. That could never be said of Carter.

I believe Jimmy Carter had done some real work prior to serving as president. Carter had allegedly been a peanut farmer. Obama has only sucked off the government teat, voting "Present" as his wife sucked even harder, doing nothing more than bringing government money in to the hospital where she sat.

Obama is by far the most narcissistic, pompous ass ever to occupy the Oval Office.

NO!!!!

As far as I can tell from watching this clown inaction (in his case one word!), Obama's values are hurray for me, and the devil with the rest of you. Especially the rest that don't agree with me.

Frederick Hughes says, " I believe Carter loved this country, while Obama hates it."

Yes he does hate it, and his actions show clearly that he is trying to destroy our beloved United States of America. He is, pure-and-simply, a traitor.

Carter was quite inept. Obama has been quite successful (aided by ultra liberal Senators) carrying out his agenda. What would he do differently if he were a closet Islamist out to bring down this country and hence the Western world? Example of his perfidy--When and where did he convert to Christianity from the Moslem belief? If he did why was there not a fatwa issued calling for his death as an infidel as required by Sharia Law?

One is white, one half-white, and both wrong!

How are carter and Obama different? They are not really different they just followed different roads to the same failure. Carter was inept and Obama is and always has been incompetant. The big mistake that they have in common is that they think government is the answer. Albert Einstein said it best : Doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result is insanity.

Carter was inept certainly, but not maliciously evil. Barak Obama's designs are the dismantling of the Republic. Carter's personal philosophy was a misguided application of the Social Gospel of the 1800s. Barak Obama's personal philosophy is the deliberate application of facism/statism. Carter was wrong in his efforts to use the federal government in place of individuals & private organizations in the relief of human suffering, but at least he was wrong honestly. Barak Obama deliberately dishonest about his positions on issues and objectives in office.

Can Obama win a second term? I believe he can. The GOP is in disarray, has no real Constitution/Rule of law candidate, and has the Liberal left media against it. In addition, the number of voters(legal and illegal) that are on entitlements combined with the brain washed out number those that truely care for our country and freedom as it was laid out by our founding fathers.

Yes, he can win.

Obama has perfected Carter's flaws and Obama surpasses Carter's ineptitude. God help us!

Carter professed to being a Christian and most beleived that... Obama, on the other hand, Professes to be Christian but MOST know this jerk is through and through, A MUSLIM.. President Bush (God bless him) spent a lot of many getting rid of a dangerous Hussein in Iraq and the American people turn around and put the MOST DANGEROUS Hussein smack dab in the White House.. Big Ed

I consider Obama To be an amoral person. He has no position that he will not ultimately compromise or abandon. He absolutely no leadership skills, acting more like a common street bully and Communist sympathizer

I do think President Obama can win another term. Look at what we have to choose from. Where are the candidates with honor and integrity? (There are a couple out there, but everyone says they are unelectable.)I will never vote for Obama, but I am afraid given the choices that seem to be shaping up, many will. We all need to be on our knees seeking a God solution not a solution from men.

Carter was at least intelligent enough to graduate from the Naval Academy and go the undersea warfare route (subs)- eventually being selected by Adm Rickover for Nuclear sub duty..

Obama would not get through a single day at a service academy.

Carter and Obama: An Unfair Comparison

Carter was inept, but Obama is totally incompetent

You assume that "O" is totally incompetent at your own risk. He is NOT. If you study Islam at all, you will know that YOU are the one that is asleep. All that he has done and (contra-) accomplished, is strictly to schedule and absolutely competent to his purposes. If it walks like a mooslum, and quacks like a mooslum, it must be a duck. Quack, quack. The jokes on you. Dismiss this advise as you may, but I as well as you will pay.

CAN OBAMA WIN RE-ELECTION? Unfortunately, I believe not only that he can but that he will be DIFFICULT to beat. Because of his ability to perform extremely well in the campaign mode, I think the president will put a Republican candidate to tests not experienced by others in politcal campaigns for the presidency. He will become the man with the golden tongue, working the con like the snake oil salesman that he is ... and that will make him a tough opponent in 2012.

Jimmy Carter was inept but at least he had integrity. Obama has no integrity and doesn't have a clue.

The only difference is the color of their skin and Obama’s inflated ego. Carter was passive to the level of weakness and Obama is bullish on socialism. Both are equal on increasing the power of the government and both made bad decisions on foreign policy and the economy. Both have terrible problems on damage control and it’s usually damage that was caused by their own policies. Both will share the top ten worst presidents list and their failed policies will be the only thing they will be remembered for.

Carter meant well. He was wrong on many points, but he had good intentions. He seemed to think he could smile and talk his way to peace with enemies.

Obama is stupid if he has good intentions. I don't think he is stupid, so I must therefore say and believe that he - on purpose - is trying his best to wreck and weaken this great nation. The GOP has almost begged him to lower taxes, stop the gross spending, and cut regulations; but he goes on as if deaf. He has stopped or hindered Oil drilling, which will hurt the economy. If he had just compromised a little with the GOP, by cutting taxes, and regulations, plus making the Bush tax cuts permanent, then he would probably be sure of a second term victory. But he is so obsessed with his agenda, he is willing to risk being a one term president, rather than compromise. Therefore he is in a sense, not a failure, because he is fighting hard for his flawed program, and making great "progress" in his eyes. Our nation may not be able to survive a second Obama term. Almost half of voters do no now pay income tax. After a second Obama term, suppose that number of non-tax paying voters grows to 55 or 60%, then it just might be impossible for a Conservative to win in Congress or the White House, because so many voters will be voting for the Liberals to keeping handing out the dole to them. Some in the GOP are saying that if their man (for example, Ron Paul) is not the nominee, then they will not vote; and if many have that attitude, it could well give us the curse of another Obama term. There is no perfect person running, but all of them are at least a hundred times better than Obama. Please vote for the GOP nominee, and don't risk another four years of Obama destruction to our economy and freedoms.

Obama and Carter are different in that Jimmy Carter just believed in the big government tax and spend agenda. However, Obama uses some of the same strategies but his goals are different. Carter did not hate America and did not want to bring her to her knees. Obama was raised by his father to hate America and Great Brittan. He has taken every wrong turn you can take as a president but gets a pass from the lame steam media every time! Four more years of Obama and a weak political driven do nothing congress will seal Americas fate for the many years to come if not forever!

Interesting that you should compare Obama with Carter. I was just thinking about a contrast of leadership under similar circumstances - Ronald Reagan vs. Obama. You can make a strong argument that President Reagan inherited a worse economy from Carter than Obama did from President Bush. If I remember correctly, When Mr. Reagan took office we had double digit inflation and unemployment. Interest rates on 30 year mortgages were near 20%. Yes, President Reagan didn't spend taxpayers money to "stimulate" the economy, he lowered the marginal tax rates and got government out of the way of the American people. By his third year in office, the economy was well the way to recovery.

Carter was a man who believed in our way of government - Obama does not - Obama is an anti-American socialist who unfortunately also believes that he is the savior of the nation - kind of a Washington resurrected.

Never has a more dangerous man sought to lead the nation - a man who lies until he wins then lives out the truth of what he really is!

[To the point, Newt Gingrich rightly protested, "We don't have a problem with America being too soft, we have a problem with Barack Obama just being plain wrong." ]

Please don't tell me the PP supports Newt. He is a liar and will continue to put the USA on the road to Globalism. The democrats and Republicans put on a good show for us, arguing and pointing fingers, acting as though they are different from one another. Behind the scenes they are working together for their NWO agenda. Newt has been deeply entrenched in the system for way to long to have been unscathed by the corrupting influence of power.The decay is deep and thick. Isn't it time to throw them ALL out and start again?

Obama is a product of people who held no allegiance or love for any country, only themselves. Somewhere along the way, someone convinced him that he was smart, eloquent and persuasive enough to be a leader. They lied to him. He cant give a speech without reading it and is easily bufooned by placement of an incorrect word in the sentence he is reading.

Obama holds no feelings that could be called "core values" because he has always been told what to think and what to say.

Sad thing is: once he is no longer President of the USA, he will likely be placed in some position in the United Nations where he will continue his assault against the USA and other free countris.

That a nobody, an invented man with no provable past; could be elected President is an indictment of the entire electoral process in the USA. Iraq has a better system with paper ballots and purple ink on the thumb!

Carter was an idealistic Bozo who thought that his Kumbaya mentality could be foisted on the rest of the world. His world-view was through the lens of the American attitude; he failed to understand that the enemies he faced (Islamists-The same ones we face today) were basically uncivilized saveges and should have been dealt with on the terms of the savage, not those of enlightened civilization.

Obama, on the other hand, IS a Muslim Manchurian Candidate,NOT an inept bungler. He was groomed somewhere during the years he was allegedly at Columbia to become the President and destroy America from within. In this capacity he has proven frighteningly competent and if, God help us, he is re-elected this country is over. We'll have a hard enough time digging ourlselves out the abyss he's dug for us, but shoudl he get four more years, as they say in the fish business, we're scrod!!!

Carter meant well and acted with good but erroneous intent.

Obama is following his desire to destroy the United States.

Eisenhower won The War – world respect, suburbia and full employment was the reward.

Nixon brought China into the 20th century and made them a valuable trading partner. His domestic policies were also pragmatic and conservative. Inflation was not a concern.

The Ford administration was weak, non-eventful and perhaps conditioned the East in believing that America was getting weak.

Carter was intelligent (worked in developing our nuclear submarine fleet) and was a good business man, but when he began to serve as President, he surrounded himself with inept and naive good ole boy advisors.

His domestic and foreign policies led to gasoline and oil shortages, deterioration of consumer confidence, and inflation that saw mortgages higher than 16%, and commercial loans greater than 23%.

His administration inferred that they may freeze prices, so the manufacturers of hard goods (farm, industrial and construction equipment) increased their prices in excess of 25%; and then provided “rebates” to bring the prices back to the current levels. This is when the rebate programs began.

His was an administration of mistakes, bad financial advisors, and weak military.

Obama is purposeful in his actions. All of his advisors are agenda driven.

He wants Americans to suffer because it is wrong for Americans to have, and the rest of the world is lacking. Americans are not unique or exceptional, they are just lucky and privileged. If it wasn’t for a strong government, no one would prosper.

He is anti God / anti free market, and anti American.

The sooner he is out of office, and has no power the better.

It depends on how many votes can be stolen.

No I cant believe obammy and bite me joe can survive it first off even the dummest of welfare cheats see this as a communist ploy and I think there are too many gun owners that voted for this idiot that woke up too the fact of what he is, even God wont let this happen again!!!

First, it just wears me out to hear and read accusations about one candidate over another. Can we just let the selection process proceed?

I will support and vote for whatever candidate runs against Obama.

Obama's values center around himself. His biggest mistake is that he believed all his press before he was (s)elected. He is an ideologue whose primary desires are (1) gain more power for himself, (2) gain more power for the party that will help him gain more power for himself, (3) take the prescribed steps already outlined by his party (Dem. or CPUSA? Both?) to pull down the United States without arousing too much suspicion -- just enough to get by and at the same time accomplish destructive goals, (4) grow the size of government so that as many people can become dependent upon the National (formerly Federal) government as possible, (5) gain control of industry, (6) pull down the wealthy class and at the same time agitate/propagate among the poor a hatred for the wealthy, thus collapsing the middle class, and creating a subservient proletariat under the control of a Politburo (the new "peerage"), destroy the family and erase all morality, making it subject to the state . . .

Essentially, he is a fraud, a "ringer" brought in to do the dirty work the progressives, Left, and other communists and anarchists have desired and planned for 100 years. His ideals are based on self and humanism (man becomes his own god).

To answer the question as to how Carter "The Inept" and Obama "The Communist" are different is to compare a well-meaning cretin to evil incarnate. It all comes down to the desired results. Carter wanted a nation loved by one and all. Obama wants a nation brought down to the level of Zimbabwe and a populace holding their begging cups "hoping" the state can drop a little "change" in their vessels.

Given the absolute unprofessonalism of the opposing party he is a shoo in. These clowns make him look good to all but a true conservative.

I will not vote for Obama or anyone like Carter. They blamed others for their mistakes. I hope and pray that a republican is elected. Yes Reagan possessed a high academic diplomacy

Obama does not need another term to "finish the job." He needs another term to finish us off.

Compared to Obama, Carter was a Saint.

Unfortunatly Obama could be elected. He has money and the "Bully" pulpit of a sitting president. He can be beaten by harping on his record an questioning record and qualifications to be prwsident. I for one, do not believ he is a natural born citizen, therefor, not qualified to be a president

Why oh Why can't a good conservative rise up?? Do we not have satisfactory conservative leaders willing to run?

Obama's Value? About $1.98 after tax.

I hope that Obama is not re-elected. However some 45% people polled would re-elect him. I do not understand, He is at best inept, his agenda is crippling the country and 45% can not see it?

Most likely Obama will be reelected. Any opposition candidate will be savaged by the 'press' until nobody will be willing to come forward as a candidate.

It is a possability for Obama to be reelected but

highly unlikely, if there is voter fraud and a

mass case of halucination at the voting polls

combined with a national suicidal bent, yes

he gets three more years to destroy America.

Leadership does need to be deserved, and a good

leader also is a need to be deserved, as America

has moved away from Christianity and embraced

immoral behavior, decadent social convictions

and high mortality because of abortion, the

blessings of God become undeserved.

Change and repentance is in order, a move back

to God in Churches and the Nation, preaching

Jesus Christ and the Cross, this is the way,

no other will do....................William

Carter was trying to do what he thought was right, Obama has a hidden agenda to destroy America.

One element missing in Alexander's essay is any mention of Obama's unwavering support. The mainstream media(print, broadcast, and entertainment), academia, his crony capitalist friends, and the public employment unions. No matter how significant his blunders turn out to be, they will collectively try every trick in the book to minimize or ignore them. They have the power, and are using it, to execute every imaginable kind of character assassination on any would be challenger.

He has none. If their be an anti-Christ who will one day rise; depending on your interpretation of prophecy, President Obama is made of the material Satan is looking for in a ruthless, heartless and narcissist dictator. There is nothing in him that would deny Satan that opportunity. Is he the anti-christ now? No! Could he become the anti-christ? It is possible. Whether he does or doesn't I beleive we are getting a preview of the kind of material the anti-christ will be made of. God ultimately holds the cards that will unleash the tribulation. There are many in the world who are anxious for such a man and have been hoping to find him for decades. If he suddenly becomes many times more eloquent and charasmatic without a teleprompter something has taken place. Those who read this comment and claim Christ must take notice how thiRev 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.

s type of individual will be overcome. Rev. 12:11 "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death" We already see it in Marxist and Muslim countries. At this very moment Christians are being beheaded in Egypt. May they not shrink and may we not shrink if we find ourselves in a simalar state.

Win the election? No, steal it, suppress opposition votes? Yes!

Jimmy Carter was a retired naval officer and a gentleman.Obama is nether. I have never met anyone who voted for him so I don't know how he got in. He really did not have any experience in leadership in anything.People wanted to show the world that they could elect a black man as president and I hope they are happy now.

President Carter was a genuine Christian and a proud American, although a lackluster president. President Obama is not a proud American and we have no real clue as to his belief system.

President Obama most certainly can win a second term if his voter base does not desert him and it is unlikely that they will do so. Moderates and conservatives MUST unite behind the Republican candidate to be able to defeat this man.

I hope not. I cannot believe that the people in this country can sustain more debt, more illegal immigrants, more 'executive decisions' that undermine our foundations. He has to go, or America will.

HE IS BY FAR THE WORST PRESIDENT IN USA HISTORY. HE SELDOM TELLS THE TRUTH, HE PAID A HIGH PRICE TO COVER UP HIS PAST. HE IS A SOCIALIST AND TRUE TO HIS MUSLEM BELIEVES. HE IS ANTI-AMERICAN. HE HAS SURROUNDED HIMSELF WITH CZARS THAT ARE SOCIALIST, MARXIST, ETC.. HIM AND HIS WIFE ABUSE THE OFFICE BY TAKING LAVISH VACATIONS. HE HAS SADDLED THIS COUNTRY WITH A HUGE DEFICIT. WE NEED THE SUPREME COURT AND THE ATTORNEY GENERAL TO BRING OUT THE TRUTH ABOUT HIS PAST. HE HAS MANY SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS, ALIASES ETC. JUST THE BOOKS HIM AND HIS WIFE HAVE WRITTEN, THE STATEMENTS THAT ARE ON RECORD ABOUT WHERE HE WAS BORN AND HIS CLOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH REV. WRIGHT SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO PUT HIM BEHIND BARS FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE.

I absolutely trust that he doesn't receive another term. One is more than enough. I dearly hope we'll get back to traditional American values.

I contend that both are the of the same mold, both want to destroy our great country.

Can you imagine what O will do if re-elected. He wont have to face another election. He will not be restrained from doing EVERYTHING he wanted to do in his first term.

there is nothing to stop him from throwing out the rule law and use executive orders to mandate his every wish. Kind of like wishing he was ruler of China.

Oh God help us if he is not defeated. Cause prayers will be the only thing we will have left to fight him.

Hello America,

Both Carter and Oama are socialists at two different degrees. Carter believed he was helping the country in his ineptness. Unfortunately for us, in liberal fashion as he downgraded the military, a common liberal conundrum, he promoted big government social programs. His downfall was the hostage situation in Tehran.

Obama's socialism is in the definition of Marxism. Coupled with his Muslim leanings and love affair with America's enemies the Islamists. The Bama's intentions was always to run the country into rut we find ourselves under his leadership. The White House is party central, Air Force One is the Bam and the Bama momma 'Meshell My Gal's own tour of the hot spot vacation destinations of the world at taxpayer expense. He is not only incompetent he is waste of humanity in his position. The destruction of America is intentional with the Jeremiah Wright Marxist disciple.

The Turban Torpedo

Obama is taller than Carter, younger than Carter and he is half black and Carter is not.

As far as differences between Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama go, I think they are significant.

Carter came from an intact family, and knew his legally married father. Barack Sr. was a notorious womanizer, who had never bothered to divorce his previous wife before marrying Stanley Ann Dunham. There are reports he also had a wife in the Philippines. He never seems to have taken an interest in his son.

There has never been a question of whether Jimmy Carter qualifies as a "natural born citizen."

Jimmy Carter had a security clearance.

Jimmy Carter served honorably in the U.S. military.

Mrs. Carter was not ashamed of America prior to her husband being elected president.

Jimmy Carter didn't blame his predecessor for every problem he faced as president.

Jimmy Carter didn't authorize a personal staff of personal assistants for his wife.

Jimmy Carter didn't create new Czar jobs without the authorization of Congress.

Jimmy Carter was a businessman before becoming president, and actually held a real job before having his own business.

People know something about Jimmy Carter's background and activities.

Jimmy Carter didn't go to court to prevent people from knowing about his personal education and history.

Jimmy Carter has been known to work with his own hands to help those less fortunate.

I think Carter's foreign policy was very ineffective, but he was nowhere near the disaster of Barack Obama. Obama's reading a "toast" from Shakespeare during the UK national anthem was simply incredible. What was he thinking? Probably that his was a really neat toast and everyone would think he was brilliant. Obama, as always, thinks it's all about him. I cannot see Jimmy Carter thinking that way. And,while I am not a fan of his presidency, but I think he is an American, and a decent man who cares about America.

Carter was well-intentioned but totally wrong. Obama is not well intentioned. He is an intelligent, dedicated communist actively doing all he can to destroy the United States of America.

Is he worse than Carter? Carter was merely pathetic. Put Barry in the big leagues - Is he worse than Lyndon Johnson? Worse than Woodrow Wilson? Worse than Franklin Roosevelt? These are the real heavyweight division for subverting the Constitution and bankrupting the country for decades to come. They were very good at it.

Let float a theory. What if there is not an election next year. There are currently executive orders in place regarding how to control the population during an emergency. What if they devalue the currency, shut down the banks, declare a national emergency, and then he just becomes king and dictator. Stranger things have happened, and he has certaily shown no reticense about running over and around the Constitution and the Congress to try and accomplilsh what he wants. Just asking.

At this time we can't afford any what if's. What we need is to get this unqualified idiot out of the W/H and the sooner the better.

The one in the W/H should never have been put there in the first place, his agenda is what has helped to cause so much damage to this country and our economy. All one needs to do or should do is look at the state of things at this time and what they were 5 years ago.

For insistence when bush was in office gas was around $1.79 a gallon now at this time it is close to $.00 dollars a gallon. Can this country stand another term with this pres. I think not. He has done end run upon end run around the CONSTITUTION time and time again. He has already said that the Constitution is no longer needed and that a new one needs to be written for today. He has broken the law so many times that had this been any other president they would have been impeached and then imprisoned for life. he has been on at least 2 occasions introduced as either king obama or prince obama. this type of thinking has to be stopped. He has shown hatred of this country and every thing that this country stands for, He has made a mockery not only of our laws but of this Nation as well. He has even gone so far as to throw a foreign law in our faces with this islamic law. I pose this question. HOW MUCH MORE CAN WE TAKE BEFORE A CIVIL WAR BREAKS OUT?

Your reference to Obama's "atheist mother" smacks of a canard. I have little doubt that this was a dysfunctional family, and that his mom was a piece of work. None of that has to do with her atheism.

I mention it because, while I highly value the Patriot Post and largely agree with it, there is still more than a whiff of anti-atheist bigotry here.

Atheists are patriots, serve in the military, and make good parents. If you have a political point to make about Obama or anybody else that's fair game. Atheism is *not* politics.

Many of the founding fathers were religious, running the gamut from Christians to Deists. They were extremely wise to set up a secular government. Atheists have every reason to celebrate that, and the religious should be even more grateful for a secular government.

Carter was, and is, a misguided Liberal (aren't they all) but, a decent man I still believe.

Obama is an unapologetic Radical whose politics are a disturbing amalgam from many ideologies; Marxist, Socialist, Hippie, Liberation Theology, Chicago Thug Politician, Community (Union) Organizer, and yes, Communist - you name it, if it is of the Left this President will embrace it. A dangerous mixture for someone who openly admits he wants to "fundamentally" change this country. Nevertheless, Obama is as veiled about his substantive political beliefs as one can imagine. If this Nation survives, future Historians will openly wonder why BHO was not tried for treason. If he prevails, those future generations will be silenced, never appreciating the Freedom lost and condemned to a life of servitude. He is far worse than simply incompetent.

RW

At least we are sure that Carter is a U.S. citizen.

Please, Lord, NO SECOND TERM for this offensive pretender!!!! I sincerely fear for our nation should this man be allowed to occupy our White House for another FOUR years!! May God deliver us from this oppressive administration, and may the stench remain in our nostrils so we will not quickly forget what socialism sounds, looks, feels, smells, and tastes like.

Obama stands a very good chance of obtaining a second term - during which he will destroy the remains of this nation. This will come about because the Republican candidates cannot seem to get their act together. Instead of focusing on what is wrong with the country, there are hell bent on finding & picking at the faults of the other candidates. Instead of trying to fight among themselves or find ways to 'cooperate' with the Democrats, one good candidate MUST come forward who is more interested in shutting down ALL of the bureacracy that is not authorized in the Constitution. Instead of saying, "it can't be done" or "it will harm/destroy the fragile economy", it is time to at least put forth the effort to start the ball rolling. Even if success cannot be achieved in one or two terms, making an truly honest, valiant start will do a whole lot more than doing nothing.

Can/will Obama obtain a second term? Absolutely, as long as the US citizens are more excited to keep all of the countless 'gimmees' & 'handouts' that continue to violate the Constitution, there is no other choice. After all, a vote for someone who will merely continue the status quo is the same as voting for Obama!

Carter, as stated in the essay, was well-intentioned, but totally inept. He put his trust in all of the wrong things, and did nothing good for the country. His "Christianity" is dubious as well, focused on works rather than faith and fundamental values.

Barrack Hussein Obama, on the other hand, is driven by one value - that of Barrack Hussein Obama. His stated intentions are to "fundamentally transform" America - not a return to the values of the founders, but to those of his controlling, globalist, elitist ilk.

I do not believe B.H.O. to be "totally incompetent" - I believe he is accomplishing exactly what he set out to do.

I think we need to put our collective heads together to come up with a new job that suits B.O., for when he is defeated in 11 months. Maybe like algore, B.O. can make science fiction movies? Or like Bill, we can send him on special missions to hostile lands, maybe start with Mars? Jimmy Carter worked with Habitat for Humanity. Maybe B.O. could start up Habitat for Occupy. That would help get them off the street...

The absolute truth is that Obama is totally dedicated to driving this nation into a pure markist/socialist state. If one would read a book entitled "The Naked Communist" you'd see that what he has done, is doing and plans to continue on with until we see the last of him.

Every catastrophic move he has made; and there have been many which have positively disenfranchised the Constitution of the United States as our nation's guiding principles. He is the frontspiece of a large and very wealthy organization that is dedicated to the overthrow of the Capitalistic System practiced in the USA.

Comparing Obama to Carter is doing a disservice to Carter. Although totally inept as a President and even more so as an "Ambassador At Large", Carter did not have the destruction of our way of life, our values, our dedication to this nation and certainly did not try to cast out God, Obama has done all that and more.

The choice is simple. Get Obama out of our Government altogether. If we wait for November 2012, it may just be too late to stem the communist/socialist tide.

Barrack Hussein Obama has NO values, at least not what most Americans would consider to be values.

B.H.O. values: The power of Chicago politics; The power of destroying America; The power of using the race card at will; The backing of a left-wing, Anti-American press; The opportunity afforded by a weak RINO as the only opposition to his glide to the highest office in the U.S.; and an unending narcissistic belief in himself as the Marxist/Muslim conqueror of the "Great Satan".

It is unfortunate that he can get another term. I believe that he was in office too long within the first four seconds after his inauguration. That is my opinion of the job he has done to date. He has Marxist (communist) leanings. He has surrounded himself with people of questionable character. Therefore, he is one of them.

NONE-save getting re-elected.

Jimmy Carter was (is) a Patriotic AMERICAN who served his country honorably. His ineptness as President is secondary to his loyalty. We got over it. We aren't sure whether Obama is a legal American; he certainly isn't Patriotic nor loyal. We may not have a chance to get over it if we don't wake America up.

The only difference between Carter and Obama is their openess about who they are. Carter couldn't come right out and push for his true agenda. It was a different time. Now Obama comes along with lots of communists in the Congress. Communism and Socialism are no longer as forbidden as these forms of political persuasion were during the Carter years. It is still a mystery to me that apparently a majority of the voters ignored Obama's objectives which he clearly stated long before he was elected President. Well, I am sure there were a lot of voters who knew and voted for him for that very reason...those voters are the ones who hate the U.S. But the rest...I can't believe they actually wanted to destroy our way of life; the voted for change without really understanding just what that meant. Why can't we pass a law that requires a voter to pass a test that demonstrates his knowledge of the Constitution and what it means?

I think that he might be

re-elected...I don't know how

that is possible..but it won't

surprise me...I hope not for allof our sakes.

Carter was (and still is) an incompetent boob with socialist leanings, but he is an American and a Christian who loves his country. Obama is not American in any way and wants to destroy it so it can be built back up as a communist/socialist nation based on European standards. The only reason he attended a Christian church (Rev. Wright's) for 20 years was so he could make connections and enjoy anti-American rants from the pulpit.

jimmy Carter had and has a strong belief in God and I believe that he at least asked God for help.

Through his actions, it would appear that Obama considers himself above asking a benevolent Father in Heaven for any help. Thus, he obviously has not and will not receive any help. It is indeed a frightening situation to find at the head of our country, founded upon a strong belief in God, is now led by one who continually does everything he can do to eliminate any connection to this God of our Founding Fathers.

Carter was born in the U.S.A.

Carter is a Christian.

Carter served in the U.S. Military

Carter was inept, but essentially truthful.

Carter is a patriot, though misguided.

Carter attempted to govern.

Carter didn't base EVERY decision on partisan politics.

Carter was not stupid. He graduated from USNA and served on active duty. He was way off base in his thinking. Obama is just way over his head. He is thinking of his Father's dream of African socialism and is trying to install it here which is the wrong place at the wrong time. he is pushing for what he wants with no regard to what the people want. The same goes for the advisors he has around him.

God forbid that it should happen!

I love your simile, but I must disagree with your conclusion as an over-broad generalization. When you wash a window, you do not generally scrub one corner sparkling clean , then smash the glass and replace it all. You continue scrubbing until the window is done. We cleaned up one corner of Congress in 2010. We need to continue cleaning next year, and we won't be done then. If we smash the glass, how do we know we will get anything better?

Now in the Executive branch, it's a much different story. It's not enough to clean out the White House. We have to replace or eliminate entire agencies. We have to do a lot of voter education before we get a Congress that make that happen.l

I move we give Mr. Obama a big aluminum grain scoop shovel and have him clean up behind Occupy whatever protests and other Democrat Party rallies. Maybe he will figure out how do something useful like organize community anti-litter campaigns.

Carter also had to deal with George HW Bush stabbing him in the back from his perch in the CIA. The Iranian hostage crisis that so marred Carter's tenure was a result of destabilization created by Bush's agent provacatures in Iran trying to bring down Iraq. Then Bush brings us a crack epidemic in his Iran-Contra drugs for guns for missiles scheme that Ollie North took the fall for. Nothing has hurt more Americans in the last century than crack cocaine. Reagan turned his back on America when the scandal broke to protect his vice President. I loved Reagan until he failed us by not holding Bush accountable. Just say no? Well, unless you have lots of influence. Bush lite? Gimme a break. That criminal MasterTard took a surplus and gave us the most rapidly declining economy in recent history. And for what? More of the same. Afghani opium and Iraqi oil. The only benefit we have seen is more kids on heroin and methadone. Carter is, and always has served the people. Reagan, Bush, and ditto only served themselves and their cronies. Obama is not doing well trying to dig out from under Bushes mound of debt and financial crimes. But there is NO candidate running who has any chance to fix America. I know Newt. He is not a moral man and if elected will keep America involved in some costly Conflict just to keep Lockheed and others of the military industrial complex getting paid. Bring our troops home and focus our energy on fixing America. Patriotism is loving your Country enough to fight it's government.

Of course he can.

"No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people."

It was true then, and with the help of the mainstream media (yes, that includes Hannity and company) it is even more true now.

There is no difference when it comes to Islam. They both hate Israel and favor Islamic supremisist.

The differnce is that Carter wasn't trying to destroy America and destruction of America and Americans is Obama's goal.

Comparison of Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama is easy: Jimmy Carter attended the U.S. Naval Academy, was a successful officer particularly schooled in nuclear technology, was a successful farmer and the 39th President of the United States. He may have been inept but only because he didn't have a grasp of the Washington reins and leverage of power. Barack Obama's background is still in dispute and he was a community organizer in Chicago. He understands politics immensely but he's totally bereft of any concept of leadership preferring instead to shine a spotlight called blame.

Carter was hated by level-headed Americans. Obama is hated by false americans that are pure bread racists! I believe in my heart those who hate Obama are racists!

While I agree with most of Alexander's comments, I disagree on one point. I do not think Obama is inept, but he wants you to think he is. He is doing exactly what he intends: the destruction of America. He is a born & bred socialist and is using the "ALINSKY MODEL" as his plan and he is working his plan. What's more, the enablers in Washington are letting, helping him do it.

THIS MAN IS DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE IMPEACHED.

Jimmy Carter sincerely wanted to, believed he could, help America.

Barak Obama has desire to help America. He wants to use America for his own benefit - at the expense of the American citizen and his freedom.

I am in Australia, and just the other day, shortly after Obama's visit "down under", an Australian commented that he thought Obama is the most dangerous man in the world.

Who can say more?

I left out a word in my previous comment.

I said Obama has desire to help America.

I left out a key word: Obama has NO desire to help America.

As soon as we get it through our heads that this clown in the WH is out to destroy everything that is good and decent in this country, the better off we will be; yes, he may be incompetent, but on top of his massive incompetence is a fire inside of him to DESTROY.

Mr. Obama does know what he is doing, and it may be that the Tea Party can find ways to 'organize' him out of office! I sincerely hope so!

During the Carter years, at least you thought that he liked America. Obama does not. All of this economic and social turmoil is exactly what he wants.

No, Barrack Hussein Obama cannot and will not be re-elected. His own party recognizes this. They will nominate someone else, probably Hillary Clinton. If he does not step down willingly he could end up like Vince Foster or Ron Brown. That is the way the Democratic Party takes care of its problems.

Most people have commented to say that Obama should not be reelected. I do not disagree that he should not be reelected. However; the question was "Can Obama win a second term?". I believe the answer is yes. If the same naive people who voted for him in the last election buy into his retoric, then the people will again elect to further restrict our freedom.

I wish I truly knew what Obama's values are. And I wish I knew if HE knew what his values were. Power, manipulation, control, supression, seem to be his goals. Is he truly a gut level socialist/communist, or is he being manipulated himself to these goals? -- his narcissistic need for adulation and recognition has been fed by his position. Has he been propelled to the presidency to accomplish the destruction of our nation?

He appears to me to be an empty suit, blown about by a deeper agenda held by more powerful and intelligent men who truly wish to destroy America as a republic. The alternative is that he is a destructive and immoral man. And both may be true.

No

With Obama, it hasn't been about any one issue or how to really help anything. It's about how much damage he can do at the right time and place to futher his private agenda to destroy the country!!! After all, what else would you expect from someone who surrounded himself in the past and present with so many Marxists!!!!!

As an American, I would compare the two Presidents as follows: Carter made me feel embarrassed, but Obama makes me feel ashamed.

Carter was a Socialist who didn't hate America until his later years. Obama is a Muslin who hates America and wants to bring us to our knees--He wants to destroy everything in its wake.

If Obama is reelected in 2012, our country is lost for generations to come.

Given the current candidates for the Republican party and the apparent disarray of the party, I fail to see how the Obamanator won't win re-election. It will be close, but he will come out on top. The Republican's will fail to see the depths to which the Democrats will sink in order to prevail(we are just now getting a taste). Once again we will snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Jimmy Carter while a failure on many levels as our President was consistantly a man of strong religious convictions, who faithfully served our nation in the US Navy and commanded a nuclear submarine for a time. His post-presidency activity while at times vocally leftist is still filled with service to others including building homes for the homeless.

Obama on the other-hand is a man at best described as "adrift".

- His 20 year experience of "Black Liberation Theology" as espoused by Rev Wright is an aboration, even though Obama seems to have not heard anything.

- His selection for friends can best be described as radical Anti-American, including such people as Bill Aires who participated in killings and bombings as part of his violant anti americanism past.

- Obama's weak background as a low level Associate Professor who was unpublished and unremarkable in his efforts even as the much bally-hoo of the Community organizer, contrast mightly to Carter's military service.

- While spouting teleprompter phrases of jobs efforts he has very well killed off Gulf Oil Drilling and the now the Gas Line construction from the Canadian fields...missing an opportunity to create jobs. So I guess in that way he is like Carter who had gas / Opec issues in '73.

- Carters's self improvement, education and background speak loudly of the American Experience of Opportunity and contrast to Obama's self(?) documented praise of a Father arrested by the British Gov't as a Marxist. Or of his own self loathing of things American.

All-in-All I would agree that much like the often used disparagment of the "drunken sailor", the same applies to Obama's horrible performance of character and leadership as inflicted thus far makes Carter seem so much better.

Carter was inept, with obama what is at work is a deliberate attempt to destroy our way of life

Yes, Obama can and most likely will be re-elected. He will be elected by the constituencies in which he and his socialist pals have engendered a fierce loyalty to him and his administration's policies, i.e. those on the government dole, turf/benefit protectionist unions, and the growing ranks of the unemployed, all of whom fear losing benefits. In my opinion, the republicans have a chance only if Gingrich becomes the republican nominee, and then only if Obama agrees to Newt's seven, three hour debate format. Should this occur, clear distinctions between the liberal vs conservative philosophies will be drawn and presented to the electorate. Then hopefully, people would understand and choose the right path for America.

For the sake of our Nation we should pray that Obama returns to his native land (where ever that really is) in 2012 as a citizen of little renown and of greatly diminished voice.

Whatever qualities he has and displays are those given of satan not of GOD.

I pray to God that Obama doesn't get elected for a second term. It will be the end of this wonderful country of America as we know it. We're already going down the toilet fast under his total incompetence.

While both are incompetent at the job of President of the United States of America, Carter is representative of a true American family with deep-rooted respect for his country. Obama doesn't give a damn about this country, only himself and how many rounds of golf and vacations he can squeeze in during his tenure using taxpayers' dollars. His arrogance disgusts me, and it is time for him to go - anywhere - just not back in a second term as a President Missing In Action.

Jimmy Carter was a graduate of the Naval Academy and served this country as a Military Officer before leaving the military to pursue other opportunities. Noone can question his loyalty to the USA and that he is a US citizen. On the other hand Barak Obama never served in uniform and does not possess the same value system as President Carter. One cannot compare them except in narrow contexts.

Obama doesn't have any values, they are nonexistent, and how he was elected President of the United States of America is beyond me. If people had only done their research, he wouldn't have got past even the most stupid. He was never eligible to run for President, and the Democratic Party should be held accountable for the lack of vetting a prospect for the most important position in our country, our Commander-In-Chief!

It is quite possible,I believe,for this non president to win a second term if the Republicans cannot stop the infighting and back the nominee.

I don't think he can be re elected, I certianly hope he will not be re elected. I lived through every President since FDR, and by far Obama is the worst President, Ive known. I've never been so concerned for our country, as I'm today. He has NO Leadership skills, and also lacks the other qualifications a leader needs.

I believe there are enough informed, conservative voters to vote out Obama; however, we must all firmly support our candidate and ALL VOTE!

Obama is on fox news right now; uh,uh,uh... What a great speaker, not! I heard the unemployment rate is down, not! People are just being dropped off the list. Employment is about the number of people working and not working. It's just another scam by our government. Can Obama be reelected? I didn't think he would be elected the first time and it just amazes how many people voted for him the first time. If people would just vote, insist of saying they’re going to vote then Obama doesn’t have a chance.

How are Carter and Obama different? Carter was a peanut farmer from southwest Georgia, Obama is an asshole, and we are not really sure where he is from, it depends on which birth certificate you read.

Can Obama win a second term? Well, based on some of the stuff I have see from so-called average folks on YouTube lately, it's a distinct possibility. There are just too many credulous Americans out there who are willing to buy a pig in a poke because what is being sold sounds really great. They have no background in history or the Constitution. They don't realize that if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it must be a duck. To them, it's the duck that laid the golden egg, even if it's a drake. I won't go so far as to say they are stupid, but will say they are seriously mentally challenged. If he gets re-elected, it's the "free loaders" that will do it. This guy is a loser, and no matter how you dress him up, or portrray him, he's still a loser. You just can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.

Alexander hit the nail on the head. Carter was a very nice well meaning Christain man that was badly misguided. Obama is a socialist dictator wantabe. He does not care at all about anyone but Barack. His personal power is the only thing he really cares about.

Although an extremely poor President, the Obama machine is masterful at the campaign. Since it was almost impossible to get the truth during his last campaign, I believe that the people of this Nation need to get that truth to the masses. He can win with platitudes and hollow promises....it already work once.

His record of his first four years needs to be thrown in the faces of the voting public and shown for what it is. Mr. Obama is the greatest disaster this Country has ever had, and he will continue to destroy the founding principles of this Country if left in power.

Jimmie was just super liberal, well intentioned, incompetent, ineffective, and wrong. Barry is all of these and evil.

NONE. He has none.Will do anything to get his way. Anything! Hates the USA and wants it to fail. I pray that the people who still follow him will have their mental blindness cured by the truth.

Part of the problem in this country deals with the fact that this country was founded by christian people.The problem being a lack of underdtanding what the word "Christian" implys.Simply put,a Christian is a person who follows the teachings of Jesus Chirst. Jesus Christ is the saviof of mankind.Your choice to believe and follow Christ is between you and Christ and neither Myself nor anyone else knows the convictions of your heart.On the other hand ,to be a Christian,to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ would and does mean that you cannot acceppt,agree with or support someone or some party whose platform supports abortion.homosexuality,feminism and the wellfare .Thus salvation and the so called christian life are two seperate definitions. This ,in short,is why politicians such a problem with Christianity.They simplt don't understand the concept or the Christian world view.

God help Us all if this incarnation of hitler/stalin/mao wins again,remember Lexington and Concord

Jimmy Carter was (just) an insipid Progressive, whereas O'Butthead is clearly a mindless Marxist Moron.

Both are terrible presidents, but Carter I don't believe was a Marxist, as Obama is. If the American public does not wake up to the danger we are all in, due to the proflilgate spending of the past thirty years, this nation is headed for the ash heap of history.

Carter was well-intentioned, a nice guy, but misguided in some respects and quite inept. He continues to be misguided in regards to Israel. He has done admiral work with Habitat, and should stick to that and keep his mouth shut on politics and international affairs. Obama has no appreciation for America's uniqueness, has no love for this country and has no core values unless they be socialist/Marxist. He is a Muslim sympathizer while denigrating Christianity. He is severely lacking in leadership and statesmanship qualities. He either has no clue on the economy or is deliberately destroying it so that he and his cronies can "fundamentally change America". I strongly suspect it is the latter, unfortunately.

Obama's values? You mean those of a drunken Marxist, an uncaring communist mother, a radical terrorist, a bogus, racist preacher, a group of criminal community organizers (ACORN), a gaggle of criminal Chicago politicians, the traitor Saul Alinsky, or those of his fellow travelers in the Democraptic party? Or all of the above?

Carter meant well, Obama doesn't.

Obama's values are: Basketball , Golf, & living high.

Obama could easily win a second term against either Mitt or Newt, both of whom are as far left as he is as evidenced by their actions rather than their words.

He doesn't have any. He wouldn't recognize a value if he saw one.

Obama's values? It's simple, "DAS KAPITAL"

At the rate the GOP is wavering between old and older men, He's a shoe-in. If the GOP keeps nominating the "good old boys" of the party it's a given that these guys have no appeal to Joe average. The GOP needs to find a younger candidate with good credentials.

Herman Cain has the best background to lead the country and had appeal but the mainstream media has taken care of that.

The young brainless voters who got him into office will vote for BHO again.

I'm no fan of Obama. It would be more credible if your work was accurate. I could not subscribe because of this. You dissappoint me Mr. Alexander.Not conveying accurate information and then asking for believers is mentaly ill. If you really are a follower of Christ which I do not believe and only you know when you look in the mirror you have to reach for truth inspight of your feelings. Grow up.

carter was a president who mean,t well.ovomit is a trader who told us to go to hell.ovomit could,nt hit the floor if he tripped.he is a liar,trader,a marxist.and a junior senator from illonis.out of the night when the full moon is bright comes a a---ol- from chicago.jesse venture or frank serpcio for president.god bless america

If there is nation-wide use of Chicago-style politics, with voter fraud, ballot stealling, etc., Obama WILL win another term! ---from a foremer Chicagoan

One is a typical South Chicago thug and the other is a Georgia peanut farmer!

yes i believe he will be relected because there is still enough stupity left in this country to get the job done!!!!!!!! i am so,so, sorry to say.

I truly pray he can't win another election to continue as President. If he does, we may truly go under.

Obama is not incompetent. He is accomplishing exactly what he said he would with his absurd antics creating diversion while quietly destroying the middle class Alinski style. Do you have any reason to assume the 2012 Presidential election will not be literally stolen? [We] - local small business folks - are already building our walls concealed from the hate and resentment-filled racist Federal government.

Family values and the name of Obama? Please!

Barry "Obama" has no values at all. I wouldn't put it past him to fake an assination attempt just before Nov 7, 2012. He certainly has the thugs to carry it out.

Carter may have been inept - but, Obama is certainly NOT incompetent.

Obama is doing EXACTLY what he intends to do. He may cloak it all in the clothing of incompetence, but that is NOT the case in actuality. Obama set out to destroy the economy and the will of WE THE PEOPLE and he is doing just that.

Carter didn't have a clue. It seemed he wanted to be known in history who brought peace to the middle east, so he sipped tea with the terrorists. Maybe It's because he had no idea what to do in America.

Obama seems to care more about Muslims than Americans and is determined to destroy our country.

The difference is that one of them wants this country to fail!

How can Obama have worthwhile values that can be positive for the American people when he sat front row center in a church where hatred of whites and America was spewed week after week. He sat there taking it all in and couldn't help but learn negativity from those lessons. He even stated that the preacher was a mentor to him. Then during his presidential campaign the "mentor" said something that shocked the American people and Obama turned around and said this man has no and never had any influence in how he thought or acted. How can we believe that values learned all those years are suddenly changed because the man that taught him from the pulpit is now in disfavor with the political party Obama represents? Please! His values have been obvious from the start and they are not healthy for america.

The only difference between Obama and Carter is: Carter was elected in 1976 while Obama was elected in 2008.

Obama is not a trader, he doesn't believe in free market capitalism.

CARTER WAS INEPT BUT OBAMA HAS CAUSED AN "OBAMANATION"

OF OUR COUNTRY!!!!! I WILL SAY THIS,HOWEVER, HE WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY AS ONE OF THE BEST "TELEPROMPTERATERS EVER TO HOLD THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENCY.

I don't believe Obama is incompetent or misdirected. He is executing his plan exactly as he said he would with fundamental change that could destroy America as the plan is designed. Obamas actions are deliberate and well executed if the goal is to dismantle Capitalism. Alinsky and Ayers as well as Cloward/lPiven called these shots long ago. Mike Posey

The main difference is that Carter was born in the USA and he is not a muslim. Both hate America as we have known it and both want to ignore the Constitution and turn us into a socialist state. Carter is a dolt, but Obama is right on his schedule of "transforming" America. They are perfect examples of how liberalism is destroying this once great nation.

No second term for Obama if the conservative leadership stiffens their backbone and exposes all of the 'usurpers' disregard for the US Constitution.

When Obama is investigated for the stimulus money that has been funneled into his campaign account and other dubious activities are exposed. Then the American public will awaken to the crooked form of leadership this current administration espouses.

Now is the time for transparency and airing of the many deceitful actions taken by the Democrats to destroy the character of challengers to the "One"!

The ONLY 'difference' between Carter and Obama is 31 years of time.

Rise up ! Patriots and restore our beloved nation.

We only have this last opportunity to do so !

It isn't a question of whether Obama can win a second term. It's a fact that if the Republican party doesn't put someone 'up to the plate' that is worth listening to AND believing in, Obama is "guaranteed" a second term. To lead us all down the road of ruination.

The difference is that Carter was just a liberal, Mr. BO ran for office to do exactly what he has done, everything he can to ruin this nation. It's all been on purpose, not 'he doesn't know what he is doing'!! He is anti-Amnerican!!! I said before he was elected that he would do as much damage as quickly as possible as he could to our nation - if he gets 4 more years the USA will not exist, don't know what it will be called, but it won't be the USA!!

He can and I fear he will. Partly because of the socialized constituency that you mention. But more importantly because of the lack of Republican (with a capital R) leadership and conviction. Any chance for real change seems to be a very slim with the current choices for a Republican candidate. While there is much talk from the Republican candidates about what is wrong with our current policies and the socialized agenda that Obama is forcing on us all, there seems to be no one with the real vision and conviction that was so evident in the life of Ronald Reagan. You see, conviction is doing what you believe to be right, not what will win you an election. And while some of the candidates seem to say the right stuff I believe they will not hold up under political pressures because it is not their conviction. Where is the Republican candidate that we so desparately need today that has CONVICTIONS?

Carter was and still is an Idiot, Obama is an avowed socialist. Neither was qualified or capable of holding any official office in this country .... espacially "President of the United States".

I have no doubt that Obama will be re-elected. That said, I am profoundly disappointed in all of the Republican candidates who can't figure out how to articulate an economic recovery plan, a leadership plan, and even a decent domestic policy. How does one stop this nonsense? I will vote for the Republicans, but that will not be the majority. The Democrats have figured out how to use the web, twitter, facebook, and all the other social media that attracts the young. There has been no accountability for an absent media in the dissection of the left's failures. The only thing coming from the mainstream is how bad racist, selfish, and evil conservatives are for our country. Millions of people trust the news, and it is still untrustworthy. We who read this post regularly are the minority and that does not bode well. We have failed to articulate the basics to those on the fence. A country is great as long as she is good and she will cease being great when she ceases being good. (I wasn't the first to say the above, it was de Tocqueville while visiting the US for Louis court.) We are not good today and therefore we are no longer great. We have allowed an apologist into our government who only has one agenda, the destruction of our greatness. It is sad, but at least since I said it early, Obama will be re-elected so the question is what are we the people going to do to respond.

A comparison between Jimmy Carter and Obama matters not to me. Carter and his impact are history.

Obama, however is another story. Comparing him to what is expected and required as President is current and certainly pertinent.

Obama is clearly imcompent in terms of his ability to lead this country effectively. More importantly, I am convinced that he and his policies place our country in the most dangerous position in our nations history. His retoric is virtually 180 degrees from his actions. His retoric is so disengeneous as to carry little to no weight with me and I dare say most discriminating Americans. He is at least a Socialist, if not a Communist. The evidence is overwhelming in it's totality. What he does telegraphs his real objectives, which is to so undermine our independence and economic freedom as to leave all of us as serfs to the state, wholly dependent on the largess of big government.

We are already far down the road to that result, and unless Obama is defeated in 2012, I am afraid our nation as we know it is doomed.

Obama is totally different than Carter.

Under Carter, the American Embassy in Tehran was stormed and Carter was powerless to rescue it.

Under Obama, the British Embassy in Tehran was stormed and Obama is to timid to exert influence.

I see the major difference between Carter and Obam as one of intent. I believe that Carter, at least at the time he was president, was unintelligent, unqualified to be president and bordering on being stupid. I am not convinced that his intent at that time was one of evil. However, Obama is neither unintelligent, not stupid. He is, however, totally unqualified to be president, both by virtue of being a person who has refused to "uphold and defend" the US Constitution, and actually appears to have evil intent toward the welfare and well-being of the US and its citizens.

In any case, the result has been the same for both men. The USA, our economy and all our citizens suffered a great deal as a result of both men being unqualified to lead this country.

It took Ronald Reagan to right the ship of state beginning in 1980 and undo all the MISTAKES of a pitiful peanut farmer; the big question is: who is the next Reagan that will begin working to undo all the EVIL brought upon this nation by one Barack Hussein Obama?

Obama has no values, he only has an agenda, that is to destroy America and rule the world.

I hate to disappoint him, but he doesn't understand the American people and knows even less about our patriotism. I am afraid he's in for a biiiiig let down come November 2012.

Keep praying 2nd Chronicles 7-14 every day.

Hey, I was employed under most of Jimmy Carter's

presidency, but not at all so far under OSAMA OBAMA

Carter had more integrity in his little finger than

B. Hussain Obama has in his whole being. I wish

we could hold a vote of "No Confidence!" You know

which way I would vote. We need to vote all the

useful idiots out this election and we need some

small govt. republicans to run for all offices.

I pray Ron Paul wins or God will have to help us

if some big govt. republican gets in as well.

Carter was merely incompetent. In Obama you have not only the incompetence of Jimmy Carter, but the corruption of Richard Nixon and the Malevolence of Woodrow Wilson.

Obama's values (if that's what they can be labeled) are black liberation theology-induced marxist socialism (euphemistically called democratic socialism). He despises this country, especially white people on whom he has learned to blame all his ills. His dream is he's on top, the rest of are schlubs slaving for him.

Boot this fool out of the WH and politics forever!

Mr. Carter once served the country as a naval officer . . . Mr. Obama has served only himself.

BHO can indeed win another term. Among the factors to bring this about: 1) Otherwise very responsible Christians will either refuse to vote in protest of the GOP nominee, or stay at home on election day; or worse,2)give their precious vote to a 3rd party candidate. Conservatives have a right to be dissatisfied with the current leaders in the race for the nomination, but they do not have the "right" to allow BHO another term. The destruction of our nation is in sight. Christians alone can prevent it. We must support the nominee regardless of who that may be...

President Carter was inept. Obama is smart, cunning, a pathological liar, and is accomplishing exactly what he wants to accomplish. Read Alinsky to see the road map he is following.

"Medicine is the keystone in the arch of socialism." -- Vladimir Lenin

“The goal of socialism is communism.” – Vladimir Lenin

Obamacare?!?!?

Carter was simply dumb as a rock when it came to managing the office of the president. He didn't know how the problem came to be or how to restore the economy.

Obama created the problems with our current economy. He has problems with America being exceptional and will do all he can to show that it isn't. He thinks himself superior to everyone else. He does not take blame for doing anything wrong and has no desire to correct his mistakes.

Finally, Carter loved his country. Obama hates America. Obama should be removed from office so that he can do no further damage. He should be impeached for the damage he has done.

God Bless America
