Could we run Jimmy C again?
I'd like to see that guy up in the Oval Office again these days. He's a moral human being, and he's got the stones to run. Jimmy, you up for a run at '08?

2. Jimmy Carter is a fine man
but the world needs him to do the good deeds he does now. He helps a lot of people.
He is truly a class act. The most unselfish ex president ever, he truly deserves his Nobel prize for the last several decades of almost non stop humanitarian, peacemaking and pro-democracy efforts around the globe

3. Whenever somebody insults Carter
I simply respond... "Where's your nobel peace prize?"

5. When people insult Carter it makes me sick
They bash him on FreeRepulsive all the time. I remember one Freeper named 'GrampaDave' said he wanted to piss on Carter's grave! Made me want to piss on Grampa's head.
They (RW Christians, Freepers, Falwell etc) pretend to be Christians and good Americans. Carter actually walks the walk.
Jimmy is a great American and a great human being.

4. great idea!
he seems pretty vigorous--and he is very popular abroad.

He is very committed to the Palestinean cause--even more than the Clintons--maybe we would actually have a chance at peace in the middle east.

6. He can be the interim-President
Like Bush/Cheney, a pile of Republican officials elected in 2000, 2002, and 2004 are vote-hacking FRAUDS. :argh:

It's constitutional crisis time.

Carter for interim-President

And I'd like to nominate Robert Byrd for interim-Vice-President.

(A Byrd in the White House, beats two Bushes any day.)

8. Problem isn't his age, he has too much moral fortitude, to schlep
Don't get me wrong,I'd be as proud to vote for him this time, as i was the first time, also the first vote i ever cast.His only short coming as a president was,honesty and decency.
