Jimmy Carter with Keith on MSNBC interview

[Ichingcarpenter]

I love Jimmy, he's talking about racial discrimination right now

1. He's ten times sharper than McCain and 14 years older

Still sharp and eloquent.

2. When Jimmy speaks I listen.

We are lucky to have him on our side.

3. What a treat to see him!

[Ichingcarpenter]

5. He's talking about experience saying Obama had more than Bush, Reagan

and it is a weak argument.

[polichick]

9. He said that beautifully! Carter's '76 campaign was the first one I worked on...

...I borrowed a car and drove to Plains to see where he was from, and still have the handpainted campaign button his aunt gave me. Hope to visit The Carter Center soon. He is such a hero to me!

10. I shook his hand in Houston during that race

he spoke to a crowd downtown on the streets of Houston.

11. How cool! :)

:toast:

[No Elephants]

12. More than Bush, more than Reagan, more than Lincoln, more than

Bill, more than Hill.

6. Yaaaaayyyy, Jimmy!

His work since he left the presidency is the most significant by any former president, although a case can be made for John Quincy Adams and William Howard Taft.

7. Clear as a bell

Great interview.

[Ichingcarpenter]

13. Yes, he's still got it

at 89 ... he's amazing.

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

14. He has that transcendent grace of one who is so secure in his own self

that he is just immune to "spin".

A wonderful human being. A true sage. A prescient President and a humble GREAT man.
