OUR comment From Independent Underground News & Talk

FIRST: Praying for POTUS Jimmy Carter.....

CANCER SUCKS and THE FOCUS SHOULD BE ON THE CURE FOR THIS HORRIBLE DISEASE and stop the "Marketing" of Cancer over an ACTUAL CURE!



P.S.: Sarcasm based, "Smart" or otherwise unnecessary comments outside of offering Prayers, Good Wishes, Thoughts on POTUS Carter or his Cancer will be removed from this thread. This is a serious battle POTUS Carter and his Family is facing and as Democrats, he should have our 150% support.
