Hayward (of the American Enterprise Institute) provides a biographical assessment of former President Jimmy Carter's political career and public life that is overwhelmingly negative. He accuses the Carter of race-baiting, befriending dictators (but "betraying" the Shah of Iran), mismanaging the economy, and other sins. He argues that in his post-White House career, he has undermined American foreign policy, giving succor to American enemies. He also suggests that the negative stamp of Jimmy Carter is indelibly marked on today's Democratic party. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
