How a future U.S. president helped avert nuclear disaster near Canada's capital | CBC News

In 1952, an experimental nuclear reactor in Chalk River, Ont., about 180 kilometres northwest of Ottawa, partially melted down, becoming the world's first nuclear reactor incident. Disaster was averted, in part, with help from future U.S. president Jimmy Carter.

He's a lot better man than Teddy Kennedy who helped foil his second term and make it easier for Reagan to beat him.

Teddy swam away from an Oldsmobile, leaving a woman to drown. Not exactly a hero....

Republicans arranged with Iranian crazies holding hundreds of Americans hostages in Iran to not release them until Carter lost the election. The Iranian Ayatollahs agreed.

Disagreeing politically is democracy, not an attack. Primaries build democracy.

And the crash was a VW.
