Ah ha ha ha ha ha, give me a break. I mean, when and how did he schedule the negotiations without anyone knowing about it? He was a civilian during his cadency.

Actually, I remember seeing an interview with Jimmy Carter years and years ago. He was talking about that time period, and had gotten word that the hostages would be released. It was just a short time before Reagan's inauguration (hours? Maybe a day? My memory isn't perfectly clear on that). Rather than make the announcement, Carter held the information so that it wouldn't distract from Reagan's day.

I gained a lot of respect for Carter.
