I agree that he was a better president that people give him credit for, and I also remember the late 1970s.

However, it doesn't appear that there was "just bad luck" for Carter when it came to the Iranian hostage crisis. According to The New York Times, there is now some strong evidence from a reliable witness that the Reagan campaign worked hard to convince Iran to keep the hostages until after the 1980 election. In exchange for doing so, Reagan would offer Iran "a better deal," after he won. That dirty dealing by the GOP might have cost Carter a second term.

One problem you didn't mention above was inflation, which Carter inherited from Nixon and Ford, and which appears to have been set off in part by the 1973-74 oil embargo, imposed by OPEC against the U.S. for their support of Israel during the 1973 Arab-Israeli War. Although the embargo happened before Carter's presidency, its impact on inflation was most strongly felt during the Carter administration.

In addition, Carter had to deal with another oil crisis in 1979 as a result of cutbacks on oil production in the aftermath of the Iranian Revolution. This was followed by more cutbacks in 1980 because of the Iran-Iraq War. I remember the long lines waiting to get gas during that time. (But I still voted for Carter again in 1980, because I knew that Reagan would start to turn the clock back on the progress made in the 1960s and early 70s--and I was right.)

Stevie Wonder - Superstition 1972

"Superstition" is a song by American singer-songwriter Stevie Wonder. It was released on October 24, 1972, as the lead single from his fifteenth studio album, Talking Book (1972). The lyrics describe popular superstitions and their negative effects. It reached number one in the US Billboard Hot 100 in January 1973 and on the soul singles chart. It was Wonder's first number one single since "Fingertips, Pt. 2" in 1963. It peaked at number eleven in the UK Singles Chart in February 1973. In November 2004, Rolling Stone ranked the song number 74 on its list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. It was re-ranked number 73 on its 2010 list, and number 12 on its 2021 list. At the 16th Grammy Awards, the song earned Wonder two Grammys: Best Rhythm & Blues Song and Best R&B Vocal Performance, Male. In 1998, the song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.

English guitarist Jeff Beck was an admirer of Wonder's music, and Wonder was informed of this prior to the Talking Book album sessions. Although at this point Stevie Wonder was playing virtually all of the instruments on his songs by himself, he preferred to let other guitarists play on his records, and he liked the idea of a collaboration with Beck. An agreement was quickly made for Beck to become involved in the sessions that became the Talking Book album, in return for Wonder writing him a song. Between the album sessions, Beck came up with the opening drum beat. Wonder told Beck to keep playing while he improvised over the top of it. He improvised most of the song, including the riff, on the spot. Beck and Wonder created a rough demo for the song that day. After finishing the song, Wonder decided that he would allow Beck to record "Superstition" as part of their agreement. Originally, the plan was for Beck to release his version of the song first, with his newly formed power trio Beck, Bogert & Appice. However, due to the combination of the trio's debut album getting delayed and Motown CEO Berry Gordy's prediction that "Superstition" would be a huge hit and greatly increase the sales of Talking Book, Wonder released the song as the Talking Book lead single months ahead of Beck's version, the latter being issued in March 1973 on the Beck, Bogert & Appice album.

"Superstition" received a total of 91,5% yes votes!

This is the most DEVASTATING King Crimson fact. Live content from 1973-74 with David AND John playing violin would've been so cool 💔

CUTE: David Cross and John Wetton used to play violin duets together in early Larks'-era King Crimson concerts

NOT CUTE: members of John's previous band Family said John was not very good and they stopped doing duets
