124. I have always loved Jimmy Carter too
Edited on Sun Sep-11-11 12:08 PM by lunatica
More so today. He's a man who I will never doubt. He was the right President for that one opportunity we had to face facts about ourselves as a country and grow up. It was a moment in our history when we could have admitted we weren't the glorious and perfect country and we could have pledged to be better and joined the world in brotherhood. But instead we got Ronald Reagan who again wrapped us in the deluded flag of uber patriotism and jingoism.

I truly believe this.

Maybe we're close to another pivotal moment now. I hope so. Something has to finally wake us up to the truth.
