RIP Jimmy Carter
Passed away at 100 years of age.
I see him as an honest politician (which is a rarity) and good overall person who had too much faith in the good of humanity which allowed his adversaries to take advantage of him. A man who tried his best but came up short as a President. However, as a person, he was one of the great ones. His passing is sad.

Re: RIP Jimmy Carter
Certainly a no-brainer for St. Peter at the pearly gates. RIP Jimmy, you’ve earned it.
I’m 1/4 Carter and my Dad said we were distantly related. Not just because of the name (his mother was a Carter) but because someone had actually traced the family trees back to common ancestors. Not that they made a habit of telling people that back during the days of lines at the gas pumps that went around the block.

Good man, poor fit for a President.
I mean this with respect for my memory of that part of my life: I guess the rabbit finally got him. ;) (That's for anyone old enough to remember, which on this board is all of us)
RIP Mr. President. I disagreed with a lot of his views, but I have the utmost respect for his sincere beliefs and belief in the American people. I don't doubt that a bit.
A good man, from a day when you could respect someone across the aisle.

Re: RIP Jimmy Carter
At least he died knowing he wasn't the worse President ever. He can thank Joe Biden for that
