I find it very odd anyone has a problem with this, but I suppose it is an American eccentricity - in other nations, former leaders are free to support or oppose current policies. I think, as is often the case, some are overestimating the influence that ancient American presidents have on anything other than the stock market value of Depends.
Perhaps leaders who immediately precede the current leader have some influence, as you know, a lot of people Clinton did business with in the larger world are still around and might listen to him. Everyone that Carter did business with is long, long out of power and/or dead.
