Jimmy Carter actually said...

"The primary purpose of our foreign policy is to create and maintain a world environment within which our great experiment in freedom can survive and flourish."

"We are deeply concerned, not only by such obvious tragedies as the war in Vietnam, but by the more subtle erosion in the focus and the morality of our foreign policy."

"We simply must have an international policy of democratic leadership, and we must stop trying to play a lonely game of power politics."

"What we seek is for our nation to have a foreign policy that reflects the decency and generosity and common sense of our own people."
