So - I realized long ago what a crankpot Jimmy Carter is but this is even over the top for him I think. The US Revolutionary War was UNNECESSARY?? He says to Chris Matthews:

Well, one parallel is that the Revolutionary War, more than any other war up until recently, has been the most bloody war we‘ve fought. I think another parallel is that in some ways the Revolutionary War could have been avoided. It was an unnecessary war.

Had the British Parliament been a little more sensitive to the colonial‘s really legitimate complaints and requests the war could have been avoided completely, and of course now we would have been a free country now as is Canada and India and Australia, having gotten our independence in a nonviolent way.

I think in many ways the British were very misled in going to war against America and in trying to enforce their will on people who were quite different from them at the time.

How can anyone take anything this Nobel Peace Prize Winner of 2002 seriously? Like I said in a previous post Carter is your common garden variety leftwing commie!
