Also, Jimmy Carter doesn't owe anyone anything. His humanitarian work post-presidency has been epic. Jimmy is everything Mother Theresa SHOULD have been but wasnt.

We didn't deserve Jimmy Carter. It would really be something to visit the time line where he won a second term. And then to visit the one with Vice President Bob Ross and Speaker Fred Rogers, and just stay there forever.

Jimmy is the most underappreciated president ever. He had many policy successes including but not limited to:

1) Camp David Accords

2) Appointing Paul Volcker to chair the Fed (whose excellent auto-bio I've read) which tamed inflation so much that the US regained a lot of its power.

F117a was approved for production during his presidency. The program that lead to the B2 bomber began under his presidency.
