He may not have been one of the greatest US presidents in history, although he faced some pretty tough times and did still manage to do some great things. But I think it's fair to say there's never been a greater human being to hold the office. His service to his country before becoming president and his diplomatic and humanitarian work after leaving office, which includes a Nobel peace prize, has to put him up there as one of the truly great Americans and most selfless people to pass through the Oval Office.

A strategic blunder was the GIVEAWAY of the Panama Canal. We'll suffer from this.......and I suspect very soon.

The Iran fiasco is interesting........always been some questions for me as to whether the powers that be sabotaged some of what he was doing. And of course, the runaway inflation.

His integrity/character cannot be questioned.

We haven't suffered for it for nearly 25 years as far as I know. As long as we get to use it and defend it and not pay rent, I'm not sure why we wouldn't let Panama own it and maintain it, seeing as it cuts right through their country.

It's a weird fact that you sail east through the canal to go from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

The Chinese control it ......unless something has changed.

The Carters in Final Chapter of Life

President Carter's grandson, Josh Carter, tells People Magazine that his grandfather and grandmother, Jimmy Carter and Rosalynn Carter have entered 'the final chapter'.

He's still fully Jimmy Carter," Josh Carter said of his grandfather. "I mean he's almost 99 years old, but he fully understands (how many well wishes he's received) and has felt the love."

Josh also gave an update on Rosalynn, his grandmother, who has dementia:

"They are still holding hands … it's just amazing," Josh Carter added.

I for one am very appreciative of the national recognition bestowed upon the former first lady's death... I hope everybody of that honor receive the same. Including Ms.Clinton.

Here's another death that should hopefully be honored similarly.
