Carter did not have a good working relationship with Congress, and it greatly affected his ability to get his legislative agenda passed. The tension between the White House and Congress only grew throughout his presidency. President Carter would lose his reelection bid to Ronald Reagan.
President Roosevelt's personality was key to the success of the New Deal.
I'd have to guess the fact only the states had power, and central congress didn't really have any. (The states argued about it as well)
John Lewis is a democrat. His political party is the democrats. He has run for president twice without success for the democrats and is a very well-known politician.

There is no possible way to ensure success. Otherwise everyone would succeed.
One way of measuring a presidents succes or failure is to see the relationship with Congress. If Congress is on the president side, the president will have leavrage in pursuading Congress.

This deals with the system of Checks & Balances. The President can "check the authority of Congress" by rejecting a unconstitutional law proposed by Congress. this process is called veto.The President checks Congress when he vetoes a bill that the Congress has passed. Congress can check him if a 2/3 majority votes to override his veto.Also, the President can check Congress by using the media (the "bully pulpit") to set the agenda for Congress. Presidents also tend to have success with Congress proportional to their approval rating with the public. Thus, if a president has a high approval rating, it is likely that Congress will be willing to help him accomplish his goals.
Truman was not successful in getting his program through Congress. Typically, a president will have the most success in getting Congress to agree to their programs in the first year they are in office.
