re: Y'all remember when Jimmy Carter went into Hospice care?

---

He wanted to kill strip mining, yet he got the Alaskan pipeline route approved and deregulated oil and natural gas.

Also was responsible for greatly expanding the National Park system, which he doesn't get enough credit for.

He faced a lot of headwinds in his administration, some of which were his fault, some of which weren't. Simultaneous economic and foreign policy crises were too much to overcome.
