markb4 892 Posted May 18, 2019 Despite planning on going back to teaching Sunday School, he has since cancelled that plan due to "underestimating the amount of time needed to recover": https://people.com/politics/jimmy-carter-underestimated-amount-of-time-needed-to-recover-hip-replacement-surgery/ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think she is going to go before him - she always seems to having hospital worthy illnesses (Unlike Jimmy who gets the cancer and bad falls). She will be a bad miss if she dies this year but an humongous one if she is not added next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mollyafox 455 Posted July 8, 2019 Yesterday was Jimmy and Rosalynn's 73rd anniversary. As long as nothing happens to either of them in the next 111 days, or by October 27th of this year, they will surpass George H.W. Bush and Barbara Bush as the longest married U.S. presidential couple. https://people.com/politics/jimmy-rosalynn-carter-celebrate-73-years-of-marriage/ 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drol 11,916 Posted September 21, 2019 U.S. once had a president who let Iran become a shari'a state, cut ties with Taiwan in favour of cruel communist China and financed mujahideens who would later attack the US using theose money.

DeathClock 379 Posted October 7, 2019 Tbh, I don’t really agree with him on many issues (I lean more conservative). But, I will always have respect for Carter. He always has seemed to be a good genuine humble guy. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He always has seemed to be a good genuine humble guy. Aye, arguably by far the most successful person in living memory to make a good job of the difficult problem of being an ex-US president. I've a load of respect for him too. Arguably events did for him in a big way whilst in office - notably a botched attempt to rescue hostages which was based on the kind of plan that would have spawned a movie had it come off. If he'd succeeded in that likely modern history would have been different as Reagan wouldn't have got into the White House. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
