Jimmy Carter was my first time voting for president. At the time, we were all like, a peanut farmer? Okay, it’s not like we are voting for Ford. So in retrospect, yes, he was the best. But at the time, it was such a chaotic time in the world, we didn’t have that feeling.

Carter’s stature becomes clear only in hindsight and in comparison to those who succeeded him. They could not hold a candle to his ethics and diplomacy. If the religious right so-called Christians truly understood and believed Christ, they would have held Carter in high esteem, but they never did.

Carter was very bright and had the tenacity of a bulldog. His public persona was that of a gentle and thoughtful man. He was a good mix.

✊🏼💯 Exactly what is desirable in a leader. Ignorant people, like MAGAts, view bullying as a leadership quality. They fail to understand that bullying is rooted in underlying weakness. It is merely a facade. Hence, everyday is #TACO Tuesday in the Trump kitchen.
