Yeah... Carter's low integrity or America's trying to keep their ally's political skeletons in the cupboard; who knows.

Skelletons or not, it doesn't change the fact that his book is historically and factually innaccurate. I could care less what Peanut farmer Carter thinks about my country, but when he writes a book that could possibly influence MILLIONS of people, many of whom are possible voters, and in said book is factually incorrect, so in a sense, feeding them lies and propaganda, THAT I have a problem with.
