Seemed as good a time as any.
The last video I saw him in looked very sad with what seemed to be little to no quality of life.
I hope in his passing, he finally starts to get the respect he deserves.
seems there is something about some people, especially older; not making it to the new year; betty white died on 12-31. i imagine the holidays affect them.
RIP to the best ex president ever.
what a run... 100 ain't easy ta hit.
you may disagree with Jimmy Carter but you gotta respect him, he was never indicted h was never a convicted felon, he always acted presidentialQuote:

Carter tried to communicate with the American people as if they were adults with some measure of common sense and decency, so eventually he was of course branded a loser and roundly rejected.
He was an intelligent and compassionate man who walked the Christian walk.
RIP
On a happier note...

Class act
RIP
Carter was too good of a man for politics. Honest to a fault… insert “global warming” for “energy crisis”.
All of this. Anyone who can't laugh at themselves is a terrible leader, not referring to anyone in particular of course....Quote:

RIP Jimmy. You were my 1st Presidential vote.
The only descent man we had as president in my lifetime. I always defended him while others talked shit about him. RIP Jimmy, you were a good man and loved your fellow man and country
A good good man, a so so president. I wound up refinancing the mortgage I took out during his term 3 times as interest rates kept dropping, but my CD's did great. People complaining about inflation now weren't adults during the oil shock of the 70's. Glad he passed on Biden's watch so he can get the respect he deserves at the funeral.
Sadly, this pretty much says it all.
Substance vs "Style"

His sound money and fiscal discipline destroyed by the monetarists and selfish boomers
A good good man and a good good president. Definitely the best one of my lifetime.Quote:

Powell will fold too. He’s an asset pumper committed to the leech class of do nothing asset owners.
Man of light.
Did remarkable things well before getting into politics.
RIP
I’m with you if the complaint is irresponsible budgeting by the Federal government, but there has been a general downward trend in inflation since Carter:Quote:
