Roger Olson argues that Carter failed as a president precisely because he tried to govern as a Christian (and he means this as a compliment). He has an interesting point; teachings like "the first shall be last and the last shall be first" don't exactly translate into what the world would consider as political success.
(I don't agree with Olson's claim that Carter was also the only Christian president. I don't see any reason to claim George W. Bush wasn't a Christian.)"I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

Hehadand his Lieutenant Governor really detested each other with a passion but one day Carter called him up and told him they needed to meet privately and bury the hatchet. Thinking that his desire to meet in a hotel room for this meeting smelled fishy the Lt. Gov. sent the head of his security detail (a high ranking member of the Georgia State Patrol) up ahead of him to check things out. Inside the room was a prostitute in the hotel bed and a photographer. Carter tried to set him up.
I got this story straight from the officer who walked in the room.
