The Iran hostage crisis <u><em>affected negatively the American opinion of President Carter </em></u>to the point that it probably cost him his second term as President of the United States.

This action was a direct result of President Carter's decision of allowing the deposed Shah the possibility of getting medical treatment in the United States.
