I would have expected him to have acted more than Carter did when the invasion occured. He would have had trouble attacking the USSR for something it had done well before he became President, wouldn't he? Instead, he armed the Mujahhadin and turned Afghanistan into a Vietnam that led to massive unrest. In turn, this was a big part of killing the USSR. So this one is a little odd.

And I suppose it would be rude to bring up pandering to the apartheid government of South Africa in the name of regional stability. Or was that morally correct?
When did SA turn? I know it was during RR or bush I. See Balt, there are ways to get things done, actually done, that don't rely on boycotting grapes and carrying signs across the Quad.
