I am so overwhelmed with the beautiful comments commending President Carter. Regardless if people agreed with his politics, there are hundreds of comments praising his support and work after he left office. A great man has left to join his beautiful wife. My sincerest condolences to his family. May they find comfort in their memories and his lasting legacy of helping others.

There was no POTUS where one single person agreed with every single policy. Carter was (still is) my favorite POTUS. I was just a preteen during his presidency but I did essays on the Carter's life prior, during and after Pres Carter's time in office. And that's why I call him my favorite.
