Thanks so very, very much for this wonderful and so timely an article. I worked in both of President Carter's campaigns. I had the privilege when he was a candidate to spend a brief time with him at a political even in Columbia Missouri. The more intellectual presidential historians understand that he will never be placed among our presidential greats for his one term in office, however, they also understand that he embodied the very best of what the person who holds that office should be, how they should act, and the example they should set. His service to the world, not just this nation, after his presidency, was not equalled by any of his predecessors, nor his successors. I serous doubt the standard his Post-Presidency established will be attained in the years to come. We need, we must be reminded in this time of corruption, chaos, and utter incompetency in our government and society there are those who exemplify "our better angels" - Jimmy Carter was one such person. May his tribe increase!!
