Yet another category in which Democratic Presidents out perform Republicans.
Oh to have a bad president like him again /s
He has honored the office and dedicated his life to the betterment of humanity in the years after his presidency
A lovely man! .
And one of the few Christians who give Christianity a good name.
Here’s to many more my good man!
Clean living has been rewarding for him. Being on his Secret Service detail must be an easy gig too.
Well Lincoln put up a high bar, even if he wasn’t really a non-racist, but the really racist Ds that left and took over the Rs have done a remarkable job of pulling that bar all the way down they can.
What a good and decent man. I hope we see his like again in the presidency. His polar opposite is certainly there now.
Happy Birthday Mr President,just like that pink bunny.You keep going,and going and contributing to mankind.
A president that like every D president since has been fucked over by the Republicans that have put party over country ever since and to this day.
Jimmy has been a truly great ex President precisely for the reasons he was a bad President: his virtue and sense of fairness made it hard to compromise. For those who don’t live in georgia, his grandson Jason ran for governor. Just before the election, Jimmy made a series of controversial comments. Normally Jimmy doesn’t make many public comments. I’m not the only one who considered them sabotage. Immediately after Jason lost, he was appointed head of the Carter foundation. That is the fate Jimmy wanted for his grandson and he made it so.
Probably hands them a drill and a box of drywall screws and tells them not to just stand around
Nearly four decades after voters unceremoniously rejected then-President Jimmy Carter’s bid for a second term…
Really, AP?? That’s how you open your article? Everything that President Carter accomplished, and you chose to define him that way. Wow.
Did anyone ever hear him give a Sunday school class at his church?
I have (had) a friend who is as far right wing as they get. Hated Carter with a passion. Interestingly enough, his atheist son convinced him to attend one of his Sunday school meetings (it’s an interesting family). The experience had a profound effect on him. He still hates Democrats and still thinks Carter sucked, but he said he would listen to him preach any day.
Strange.
More than any other president in US history, Jimmy Carter is the polar opposite of what we have today in the White House.
Carter is:
Modest vs boastful
Considerate vs rude
Curious vs inattentive
Kind vs cruel
Concerned vs indifferent
Humanitarian vs narcissistic
Committed to liberal democracy vs authoritarian
Truthful vs deceptive
Straightforward vs hypocritical
Rural vs urban
I wouldn’t call him boastful but, to be honest, he does have a pretty high opinion of himself!
Not that he shouldn’t, for reasons including these:
Considerate vs rude
Curious vs inattentive
Kind vs cruel
Concerned vs indifferent
Humanitarian vs narcissistic
Truthful vs deceptive
Straightforward vs hypocritical
And I’d add a few others.
This must hurt Trump, there is no way he can beat that record short of declaring that he is really 96 and fathered a child at age 84. (hey, it worked with the inaugural crowd).
Happy Birthday, Mr. President! Most inspiring post-presidency career of the modern era.
Like x100. So very true.
Might also add that he didn’t lie about his medical condition to avoid military service.
