R.I.P. Jimmy Carter

This time its for real. While his skill as leader of the free world are often debated he is one of the best examples of what a person should strive to be and took what Herbert Hoover did with the post-presidency and reshaped it. He recently stated he would not attend Trump's inauguration with his declining health. Being that he was 100 and had a remarkable 44 year retirement he stayed in hospice for 23 months. The world lost a good man today.

Terrible. I may not have agreed with some of his political views, but he seemed like a decent guy. Glad he had such a good long run.

One-hundred years. Imagine all the history he experienced that we could only imagine through books.

Rest in peace, Mister President.

Well, he did reach the 100-year milestone and stayed active to the end. Now he's back together with his wife Rosalynn. Rest well President Jimmy Carter.

I'm kind of surprised at how old he lived to be, him and Kissinger too.

Rest in Peace, President Carter. You were the last one to leave the office with your morals intact (or even have any to begin with). Not a good president but a great human being.

I could care less about the Satanist part. But yeah, the president should not be a rapist.

I think we can all find common ground on this. But man, did he play the saxophone on Arsenio on late night. I would have voted for him but I was like 10. Maybe 11.

Jimmy might not have lived up to everyone's expectations of being a great President, but, I heard that he was a great man. Habitat For Humanity probably wouldn't be what it is if it wasn't for Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter.
