Haaretz Service and News Agencies: Noam Shalit: The fact that Carter isn't pro-Israel may be beneficial
Talkback
Title:Olmert the future Carter
Name:Sidney
City: State: USA
Carter is a relic, like a one time winner of the Kentucky Derby (our most prominent horse race). Except when he does something outlandish like accusing Israel of being an apartheid state, the media ignore him. At Democratic Party conventions, there is seldom a mention of Carter from the podium. Presidential candidates do not seek his endorsement.
