According to the former president, Americans are now experiencing “a complete subversion of our political system as a payoff to major contributors.”

    If by decent you mean “person” then dammit he’s been one of the greatest presidents/people. If you mean politically, I don’t think he was meant for that game. I think you need a certain level of narcissism and desire to F over regular people for the benefit of the elites. He was lacking that. What he DID do, that no one can take away from his accomplishments, is he legalized home brewing which is why American beer is now good and not crap like it was before. These home brewers became the microbrewers, which is why we have what we have now. That God for Jimmy Carter.

      Man expanded parks and increased EPA (I think, on that second one, not positive), and gave the office and the position of retired president the most prestige and honor through his actions and commitment to the people of this country than it’s seen in some time.

      Jimmy is a role model. I pray his life is as wholesome as we believe because if that man is secretly corrupt then I may lose a lion’s share of my hope.
