I think some analogies also apply to the Carter administration. The flawed policy in Iran that led to the overthrow of the shah and the American hostage situation, and the economic freefall that accompanied it, led to Carter's one-term reign — and the high hopes that came with the election of a grassroots D.C. "outsider."
