President Jimmy Carter

The 39th president has decided to forgo further medical treatment and will "spend his remaining time at home with his family," the Carter Center announced.

It will be interesting to see what is written about him in the next few days and weeks.

He is often thought to be the least effective president of the 20th century. Time and impending death tend to soften peoples perspectives.

True...and how different from today: time and impending death while *IN* office. From a human perspective, kinda sad that Biden will never have that softening. It'll be fresh in everyone's mind how horrible a president he was.

He may have been an ineffective President with many poor policies/actions, but at least he didn't hate America like several of his successors.

The bright lining (for him) of Obama and Biden is that he's now only the THIRD worst President in US history.

Horrible president, good humanitarian man afterward.
May he have a good journey.

He built a lot of houses for poor people, so I've got to give him credit for that.

I heard there was a 'presence' when he was in the room (not the Depends). Someone compared it to Muhammad Ali, Dali Lama and others, just an Aura I guess.

He seems like a good guy, maybe too weak for the Presidency.

Maybe....100% for sure. Just about every one of our potential enemies is Fing with us in some way.

The same is true for Donald Trump and Deion Sanders.... they've just always gotten attention and build the personality to stimulate more.

I imagine if it hadn?t been for Carter I wouldn?t have learned to drive on a Datsun B210.
