Former President Jimmy Carter can’t seem to get a fair shake from Washington , D.C. , and mass media, says Julian Zelizer .

Zelizer: Carter suffered important political failures, but also had significant success in policies as president.

He says the Carter administration was guilty of missteps in foreign policy that reflected inexperience and a propensity to emphasize moral considerations in a fundamentally immoral world.

In post-presidential years provided opportunity to put his values into practical action, he says.
