  • Jimmy Carter, the 39th US president, dies at age 100

    From JAB@21:1/5 to All on Sun Dec 29 18:00:04 2024
    Jimmy Carter, the 39th US president, dies at age 100
    ...
    ...
    He was the only former US president to reach 100 years old.

    Rosalynn Carter, the former president's wife of more than 75 years,
    who was known for her mental health advocacy and humanitarian work,
    died in November 2023 at 96. The Carters were the longest-married
    presidential couple in US history.

    Is it true that Carter was one of the least polarizing presidents of the
    US that both democrats and republicans could wish well?

    Maybe at some point in time, after he left the White House.

    I believe most Rs today might reject him for being "woke" if they
    follow in T's footsteps.

    It depends upon which woke definition is used...some Rs can't define
    woke, btw, even though they use the woke word.

    President Carter's image belongs on Mt. Rushmore. Not for his term in office, which was not a success by anyone's measurement, but for his time as a former President. He promoted goodwill and decency, which I can't say about any other President in my lifetime (I was born during the Eisenhower administration).

    I would like to see Trump on Mt. Rushmore. Not only is he more beautiful
    than Carter, he is more powerful as well.
