Why won't you post it? You make it impossible for me to consider the validity of your opinion....and I've attempted to lead you to what I've read that influences my opposite argument....I suspect that you haven't even clicked the links to my old posts and read the articles that document Reagan's deliberate efforts to reverse Carter's prescient and promising leadership in planning, legislating, and executing his plan for US energy independence.... it is so irritating to read post after post containing short, sweeping statements that contradict my research, and the historical record....posts brimming with a confidence that seems obnoxious and taunting, given that they are not supported....
....Did Carter assess the greatest challenges that America would face after his presidency, and design and implement a comprehensive plan to meet those challenges....or....didn't he? I have shared everything that I've dug up about Carter's vision and accomplishments, and what was later done to thwart them and to discredit him.....and you've complained that I've shared too much...and you've offered nothing in response.... I'm tired of that kind of crappy dynamic.....here.....

Personally I don't understand the criteria for picking the Nobel Prize laureates. I find it equal to the decision making process as the MTV Movie Awards best kiss. It's just picked by a group of people who deem it so.
But c'mon are you serious host, posting the MSN.COM internet vote? Is it a popularity contest? So if next year they put up Britney Spears that's agreeable to you?
