RIP. Sad he went out right after the Democrats fukked up irreparably. But, I guess he probably didn't understand what was going on anyway.

Rest in peace.
He was in hospice, they were probably already prepared.

Hopefully you know who has some class about this, but I know that’s like asking a 5 year old to do geometry

huge story :yeshrug: who was the last state funeral? reagan like 20 years ago?

now that i think about it, biden, bush, clinton, trump are actually all like within 5 years of each other:huhldup:


Yeah y'all got a point. RIP he had a good reputation.

I mean he didn't look that old to me he just didn't look young then. I've been trying to tell people with the type of Healthcare these presidents are getting they will always live long.
He also went to church regularly, didn’t imbibe, and lived a clean lifestyle. I would also pose the thought that one term presidents have longer lives than two term presidents. I would attribute that to dealing with 4 years less stress

uhhh do we like Jimmy Carter?
im too young to know
His presidency was the precursor to the neoliberal era all of us have lived through. He signed a law deregulating multiple industrial sectors. He started with the airlines which had the effect of permanently reducing wages and many would argue the quality of our travel today.

He also deregulated finance, intensifying what Nixon did.

He was a conservative Democrat. He used monetary policy as a means of fighting inflation by reducing wages and increasing unemployment which has been the tool used by successive presidents since. Ironically until Joe Biden. And Biden was one of the first Senators to endorse Carter in 1976.

His presidency had a couple bright spots. No new wars. He did help Egypt sign a peace treaty with Israel which returned the Sinai back to Cairo. Sadat obviously was killed for it.

Carter is more beloved because of his post-presidency. Humanitarian work, democracy initiatives, helping with peace through the Carter Center. And he was still building houses through Habitat for Humanity until a few years ago.
