Jimmy Carter can be very genial. The look I am referring to shows hardness. It comes when he talks about how unfairly he has been treated by American Jewish leaders. You have to see it to understand what I am saying.
I watched the Brandeis event. He did well. I am referring to some short sections of some of the Sunday morning interviews he has given, such as the recent one with Stephanopolous.
These are complex issues. They can not be solved by arguing back and forth about whether Jimmy Carter is a saint or a villain. That is why I am trying to be very precise and very specific.
The problem with Jimmy Carter is his certainty that he has the answers and everyone who disagrees with him is wrong and hurting the world. That comes from who he is, his religion, and how he was brought up. It works well when he actually is right.

i just watched jimmy carter speaking about his book fllowed by alan dershowitz-
not once did i see his eyes narrow or look hard or intense-
alan dershowitz however came out swinging-
and if his eyes look 'intense' this personal observation of a physical attribute has nothing whatsoever to do with the content of his critique

Jimmy Carter should consider that. He wears thoughtful criticism by many folk as a badge of honor which proves he is right. His eyes narrow and he gets an intense, hard look in them when he thinks about those critics.
