Yes, Carter was a scold, "Let's all drive 55 to save gas!" comes to mind, but .. I don't think you can say - accurately - that he didn't think he was a sinner. While we knew Obama was a lefty before he was elected, he was - in Illinois anyway - frequently trumpeted as "of the Paul Simon* tradition" - that is, left on some issues but .. sensibly so. Illinois got sold a bill of goods first... Mew *no, not of Simon & Garfunkel, the Illinois politician with the bad hair and bowtie “I have sinned in my heart” speech?

Carter had morals I suppose, but not normal morality. His was the morality of a scold. He was a latter day Cotton Mather who thought that everyone else was a sinner except him. Obama is just a big lefty. It is harder for me to be as angry at him as I am at Carter because really we all knew he was a big lefty before he was elected. Carter actually ran as a right wing democrat. At this moment Obama is still slightly not as bad a president as Jimmy Carter. Carter had morals I suppose, but not normal morality.
