Jimmy Carter tried to wean us off of Fossil Fuels

he had a decades long plan that would have made America energy sufficient and not relying on foreign oil. Or oil at all.
Regan ended all programs Carter began. That was 40 years ago.
I bring this up now because if we had been wise and a little far sighted, Putin;s Russia would have no hold over Europe today.
Between the Arab Oil Embargo and the environmental damage, Carter saw the only way forward. Too bad the American voters were too dumb to see it too.

These 'people' are utterly, thoroughly, pelucidly stupid.

As is the notion of 4 year term Presidents having plans that outlast their administration by years to decades.

DUmmies are the only people stupid enough to believe Mr. Peanut-head's incompetent economic polices were part of some great, overarching plan...  :whatever:

So, what tech from those days would have made us efficiently oil independent from that time till now?


Not holding my breath, DUmmie.

The USA was a net exporter of oil until Brandon got into office and shut off the taps.

Considered by many to be the 2nd worse President of all time and until recently he was the worse.

3rd worst, if you count #JoeThePretender's squatting in the Oval Orifice as a "pResidency"...

22. Carter's efforts, first and foremost was to free the U.S. from foreign energy servitude.

The pathway Carter envisioned would have indeed involved petroleum, just not hostage to foreign petroleum.

We don't know that all of Carter's energy ideas were not workable, because they were never given a chance. Carter was kicked to the curb because he dare challenge the dominance of the #PetroleumCartel.

Who does that sound like, DUmbass? Think recently, ya f'n moron!!!!!!

I was considering Joe as the worse and Jimmy as number 2 (pun intended)

Jimmy was originally supplanted from his lock on the Worst President title by Reggie Love's Li'l Bitch. Considering that #JoeThePedophile was Li'l Bitch's Impeachment Insurance, the sequence should read #JoeThePedophile, followed by the utter incompetence of Reggie Love's Li'l Bitch, with Jimmy batting clean up as 3rd.
