Jimmy Carter and Helmut Schmidt didn't go along very well and SPIEGEL ONLINE had an English-language article on that a couple of years ago:

http://www.spiegel.de/international/world/no-love-lost-carter-diary-reveals-rocky-relationship-with-german-chancellor-schmidt-a-721449.html

Dubya/G. Schröder may count as well even though that largely happened due to Schröder's face-heel turn, going from strongly supporting military intervention in Afghanistan to strongly opposing military intervention in Iraq within 12-month-timespan or so.

Wasn't a face-heel turn at all. It was two completely different situations that did not warrant the same reaction.

Carter was a reactionary Dixiecrat by the standard of a lot of 70s Democrats in the US even.

It's only the combination of old age and retrospect that makes him a solid liberal.
