Former President James Earl Carter

At age 98, he has entered hospice care.


When he leaves the hospice, surely we will all be saying nice things about him.
He's basically given his life to humanitarian causes for those less fortunate and has achieved sainthood IMO. He's had a great life, let's hope he finds well earned peace and rest in his final days.

If trump ever made it to that age all he would be building is a pile in his diaper good job jimmy.
 
My first election I voted for Carter. My fear was that his faith would take the country to a bad place, but it only guided him and not the country. As I’ve said before - he walked the walk. He has spent decades being a beacon of humanity to a world that sadly needed his direction. A great man.
 
 

That story is in such poor taste........... :cry:

Looking back he was not a good President, but is a great person. I have probably worked on a dozen Habitat homes over the years.
 
TIL in 1952, Jimmy Carter led a team of nuclear scientists in disassembling a Canadian nuclear reactor undergoing meltdown. To accomplish this, Carter, alongside other American military personnel, personally lowered himself into the reactor to disassemble it by hand.

Isn’t that what Spock did?
 
What a difference 40 or 50 years make. I'd like to say I hope President Carter sticks around for another 40 or 50 years, but that's just selfishness. Quite the remarkable story and life he lived.

I've been enjoying the stories of staff on Air Force 1, friends, journalists, etc. who were around Carter in his administration, and while the team would be worried about fallout or pleased after an event or speech, all Carter would be worried about was whether his wife would approve or if he'd have a talking to later on.

She will be missed, but these are long and well-lived lives, and dementia is NOT a thing you want to deal with for ages. I'm glad they had that public outing a couple months ago.
