In 1975 I was a delegate to the Young Democrats national convention and Carter asked to meet with the labor caucus. He spent about an hour with us. Afterwards a friend and fellow YPSL asked me what I thought. "He's nothing but a snake oil salesman," I said, but continued and demonstrated my prognostication skills, "He hasn't a prayer in hell of winning the nomination so we don't need to be worried about him." I not only voted for him twice in general elections, I did a little volunteer work for him in the Missouri caucuses in 1980, mostly because he was running against Ted Kennedy. When the Examining Angel brings me to account for my sins, that will be on the list. I met Carter once.

The very best way would be for him to stay home and keep his big yap shut. Advice that he should take on a regular basis, btw. “Carter’s first outreach effort came in an invitation to Jewish groups to discuss ways that the former president could help make the upcoming Middle East peace conference a success.”

Fundamentally, carter is one of those Christians who finds Judaism's rejection of Christ to be offensive. No christian zionism for him.
