Carter Will Praise Dean
Yep, that's just what a candidate whose looking to improve his national security and foreign policy credentials needs, the praise of Jimmy Carter. I'm not really a Carter-hater (and I think had he been re-elected, he would have made a better President than Reagan), but Carter isn't exactly a name most voters think of when they think of when they think of good foreign policy. Besides, given how Dean has come out in favor of really stupid policies like SDI, in order to make him appear stronger on defense, wouldn't it make sense for him to get an endorsement in the same vein? Surely there most be some notable and disgraced hawk out there somewhere. Robert McNamara is still alive, perhaps Dean could send some feelers out to him.
