I am watching President and First Lady Carter on CSPAN.
They are in a Q&A session related to a UGA program "Carter Presidency & Lessons for the 21st Century".

Every day that goes by, President Carter's legacy grows brighter. Compare him and Rosalynn to the current WH occupants, and you see how bad things have gotten.

1. I remember the worst thing I heard about the Carter's was
about his brother Billy pissing in the bushes, and his Billy Beer.

3. Carter's legacy
Isn't that the truth about it continuing to grow brighter. I loved his line (don't know where I saw it) about some little kid saying that he wanted to grow up to be a former president.

6. I warched two sessions from the Conference
Carter's energy policies were decades ahead of anything linked to Rethugs.
