We can make it even more fun
Why did they take the hostages?
Because the US had been allied with the Shah of Iran for 20 years,and if we didnt let him in to the states for cancer treatment,we would have come across as untrustworthy to the rest of the world,so Carter more or less had no choice but to let him in.
Now who supported his rise to power when he was President?
Dwight D Eisenhower
He also sent the first military advisers to Vietnam
Im not a huge fan of either party not owning up to their own messes,and Im adamantly opposed to history being re-written.
But if you compare records,there is a serious difference between the Democrats and the Republicans.
You want some flaws of the last three Democrat presidents
Clinton po'ed the old school party early
Carter won because he promised to end corruption,the ensconced corruption vowed to end him for it. He didnt play ball well
Johnson got handed a cluster F all around. He tried to do some good things,but he got handed a mess.First Nam was dropped right in his lap,and it was totally unwinnable,evidence suggests Nixon also tampered with the 68 Peace Negotiations which was so helpfull. On top of that he had a moral obligation to sign the Civil Rights Act,but that cost him all of the Dixiecrats
