Carter’s longevity is a testament to the power of peanuts. Carter lived to be 100. George Washington Carver lived to be about 79 at a time when black male life expectancy was maybe 40. Peanuts are the secret to longevity.

Carter was heading us toward energy independence. Imagine how much wealth could have been spent on our people had Ronald Raygun continued in that fashion in the 80's.
Sad news, regardless of how you feel about him as president we just lost a good man and humanitarian. Thanks for all the good work you did after leaving the White House, RIP Jimmy
We didn't lose him. He lasted 100 years FFS. Even now we know where his mortal coil resides.
Critics often imply his time in the White House was a failure, but Carter got more done in four years than most presidents accomplish in twice the time
It does miss things like his invoking Taft-Hartley to break a coal strike and his deregulation of natural gas. One of the most significant actions was the appointment of David Stockman whose radical interest rate policies contributed to an enormous recession (10.8% unemployment in November of 1982 under Reagan) but in time cured stagflation and led to an economic boom from 1983 on. Several of his actions pushed the Soviet Union toward economic bankruptcy, including sharply increased military spending, his greenlighting of the MX missile. He opposed the B1-A bomber but supported what became the B-2 stealth bomber and the F-117a stealth fighter. The defense procurement and development process in the 1980s were stunningly bad but suffice it to say that the Soviets were heavily alarmed by the U.S. having undetectable aircraft and mobile nukes within Europe.
this post sums up letsrun. A man dies and his service and dedication to our country is called terrible. This place is garbage
They said his last words were thanking Joe Biden for being a bigger F up than he was.
Middle East f-ups, being weak against the Soviet Union, starting the Federal Dept of Education are just 3 of his massive failures in his 4 years. Few men showed less competence as President than Jimmy Carter, other than a dementia riddled Joe Biden.

But Carter pardoned all Vietnam War draft evaders on his second day in office, which is something Trump has been thankful for.
