fitting, but :wow:

Carter is not going to let this one go by. :patriot:

He takes very good care of himself and he's sharp as a tack. I'd campaign my ass off for him, but he's too smart to run :)

It would be Hard Work cleaning up our reputation around the world after the Bush* rubbish is swept out, but I suspect JC would be up for the job.

It would warm my heart to see a kinder gentler administration giving him legitimacy. Believe it, he would take the job - it is his true calling in life.

Edited on Tue Feb-07-06 02:32 PM by RubyDuby in GA
Now you know why I'm naming my baby boy after him :)

Carter Dean Rubyduby.

I know this won't be a popular thing to say here, but I honestly believe he's one of the few, if not the only, politican there today not pandering for a photo op. The man and Mrs. Carter honestly believe in the lifelong work that Dr. and Mrs. King did.

On edit: ok, maybe pandering isn't the right word to convey my meaning. At a loss for the correct one though. I'm hoping you guys know what I mean.

20. I will sort of disagree
he's not there for the photo op. He's genuinely there to pay his respects. But he also knows his words today will be heard and he's choosing 'em wisely. :applause:


And I don't think of him as a politician any more. "Statesman" is the word that comes to my mind.

31. "Pandering" works for me.
The panderers weren't running around NOLA after Katrina looking for a photo-op.
:eyes:

Carter is a humanitarian, and he's obviously decided America needs his help.

40 years.... He's also been the only one to talk the talk and walk the walk.

you couldn't even drive there -- you had to take a shuttle.

49. I did, and all I know is that JC is saying something that is less than
complementary about Bush*-or alluding to something about wiretapping...sorry, but these types of threads drive me nuts and make me very aware of the fact that I'm not able to be included in many of the dialogs here simply because I live on a very tight budget.

74. Jimmy Carter made a strong impression on me when I was young..
Edited on Wed Feb-08-06 02:06 AM by flaminbats
it took courage for him to make that speech in front of the coward who calls himself President. Bush would never do this out of fear of being booed or even criticized! I always listen when Carter endorses a primary candidate or makes this kind of public statement, because I know he really means it!

The Kings turned our party from a split band of clownish bigots and powerless liberals into a powerful force for progress in the 60's and 70's. Can the same be done for the Republican party?
