Jimmy Carter awarded veterans who by chance of birth were not involved in
armed conflicts but who nonetheless manned to front during the cold war
their full rights. (I, among them). Thank you, Jimmy, sure came in handy.
Jimmy Carter brought the nation down from the madness of the Viet Nam era to
a much cooler place. His calming influence was a great boon. The presence of
genuine feelings for humanity coming from the top was good and rare feeling.
I love Jimmy Carter. He sacrificed a lot for us, and he is still walking his
talk. If more of us had defended him...nah, let it go, it was sad to see his
pain. Now he has found a better role.
