ATLANTA, Ga. (CBS46) - Former President Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalynn Carter have been married 76 years.

According to Biography.com, Rosalynn Carter was a close childhood friend of Jimmy’s sister Ruth. But it wasn’t until 1945 that Jimmy noticed Rosalynn.

Carter was in his final year at Annapolis and had returned home for a visit.

Rosalynn was a freshman at nearby Georgia Southwestern College.

One night when Jimmy’s plans fell through with another girl, he impulsively asked Rosalynn to the movies. They shared a kiss afterward and Jimmy told his mother that he had met his future wife.

Those that are old enough to remember WWII and our fight against Fascism are nearly gone. And with them, goes the moral compass of this country. It is sickening to see that what they fought and died for is being tossed into the trash bin, while we open the door to allow Fascism to enter unopposed.

Storybook romance. The days where such things are possible are gone making this an event to remember as long as you can and share with the next generations.
