CRANK UP THE VCR:
Jimmy Carter (The American Experience, 9pm, PBS)
Posted by Orrin Judd at June 14, 2004 2:02 PM10 to 1 this show will make Carter look like a much better president than the American Experience show on Reagan which was shown often recently.

Spend all my life savings NOW "before all the prices can go up again!"...
And join the Soviet Communist Party "to be on the winning side"...

Oh man, that one had me laughing. Perfect.
Posted by: Athena at June 14, 2004 11:48 PMThat's an old episode. The bit where they show a hapless Carter trying to hold off Reagan brings back fuzzy, but warm, memories.
