brianoh1968 added a comment September 16, 2009 10:48 PM| ReportI think that our worst President by far in US history should stop trying to make a name for himself. Hey Jimmy !!! Go back to the peanut farm and play with the dogs and your grandkids. For Christ Sake, when this guy was President (almost 30 years ago), the KKK was still running strong in his state. I still remember the huge gas lines and gas going up 80% in cost...what a failure that was. I didn't vote for Obama, but I think he's doing a batter job than Carter did....but not by much. GO CONSERVATISM
