He has helped people pretty much his whole life. He never gave up on doing good. Always treated his loving wife with respect and love. A very dear sweet man. I will cry when he goes. I wish there were a lot more people like him in the world.
Perhaps the most down to earth President we've had in modern times. I mean that in the best possible way.
He didn't help anyone from the years 1977-1980
Unless record inflation is considered helping
@dliguori25 Sure, Carter did everything possible to try to make himself sound like a hero when his Presidency was a disaster. Carter accomplished nothing except bringing Reagan to power.
President Jimmy Carter didn't really run anything. After the assassination of JFK, and cointelpro, every president has either been a puppet of the CIA and the power elite or undermined and sabotaged by them.
The fact he didn't send the men responsible for cointelpro to prison for crimes against humanity speaks volumes. Either he was ignorant and incompetent, or terrified of them and simply loves being seen as a virtuous man.
@@ctwwtc8761 Inflation was tamed by 1983 when Carter not Reagan appointed Paul Volcker as chairman to the federal reserve. However it did take a long time and certainly didn't help Carter get re-elected.
I'm studying infectious diseases in grad school and cannot overstate the Carter Center's impact on nearly eradicating Guinea Worm disease. It's a painful and debilitating infection that causes individuals massive amounts of suffering, and his organization has almost completely wiped it out. It's incredible.
Hope your studies included a through review of Dr. John Snow's work in London and the 1854 Cholera outbreak. But, Carter and the Carter Center, were late to the project, eradicating, Guinea Worm. And projects getting clean water to Africa had been going on for years already.
Keep up the good work. Jimmy Carter was way, way, way, ahead of this time in so many areas. Perhaps, there will be a place on Mt. Rushmore for him.
@@TheMotz55 For what? Economic and political disaster?
@@bigverybadtom people who blame the bad economy purely in the sitting president simply don't understand economics and fiscal policy, it is far more complex than that. Carter did the right thing by facing the problems head on with necessary difficult Fed policies, which every other president has been too scared to do.
@@Scott-fy7fm I understand economics and fiscal policy very well. Yes, it was Reagan, not Carter, who cured the country of stagflation when he was elected. And Biden started the economic disaster we have now. You cannot scapegoat Trump after he has been out of office so many years. You're playing with a man who knows his chess.
We're not losing a great president of our time but the world is losing a great humanitarian.
Definitely not a politician..Humanitarian, instead !. peaceful ending to an exceptional life. peaceful ending. One of the best presidents ❤
He was a politician and an awful President.
Cope 😆
Jimmy Carter from what I learned in history class wasn’t a great President, but an amazing person. God bless him!
Good philanthropist, awful leader
Well, he's not up there with mythological presidents for a few reasons. He was blamed for things that were out of his control and spoke out about our problems and not American exceptionalism. Unfortunately, so many attribute too much to the president and not the congress of their time, corporations, and culture. I'm not saying he was great, but I also understand that some history books are tweaked to discuss certain things, and some teachers provide their own opinions rather than full in-depth information.
@@Sochi314 Right on
@Kevin I seriously don't understand how you could have failed to comprehend what I said. Perhaps you believe that a president actually controls how much you pay for your electricity and the price of gas. I did not claim that he was the greatest, nor did I point fingers at anyone in particular. Presidents are given credit for the stock market, jobs losses and created, etc. when if you understood the role of the president, you should know better. I'm sure you would know that there are powers given to the executive and legislative divisions of our government, and the president is not equivalent to a king or dictator. Pretend the House and Senate were Republican controlled but the boogeyman Bernie Sanders were president. Do you believe that student loan debt would be wiped clean, we would move to increase the minimum wage to the once suggested $25 per hour to match inflation and homelessness would cease to exist?
@Kevin seriously asking, when you have a conversation with people that have a difference of opinion, do you listen to understand or respond? Your replies are dismissive of the points stated. I'm not sure if you are incapable of actually focusing on what is said to properly reply or if this is some "tactic" and a failed attempt to "own the libs". I never said I was a Democrat and actually knowing a bit about history, I made an observation. If you were well versed on anything I said, you would have actually countered that opposed to pull out a repeated talking point.
*GOD BLESS JIMM CARTER AND HIS FAMILY!*
I was born in 1963 my favorite presidents have been Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan. It's hard for me to comprehend that we're about to lose Mr. Carter at some point. This world will be a smaller place without him. ❤❤❤
I love people like you who don’t pick presidents based on party lines. My great grandma is the same way. She first voted in 1960 for JFK. However, she hasn’t voted for a democrat since 1980 when she voted for Jimmy Carter, she says since him they’ve done nothing but lie, the opposite of Carter’s character, but even at the time Carter was an outsider within the party, which is why he didn’t get much done as president, congress wouldn’t work with him. But she still doesn’t vote on party lines but she sees the modern democrat party as communists
Thank you sir for everything, you have been a true inspiration to me most of my life. I remember when he came into office when I was a little girl, my grandparents took me to a campaign rally. When he visited Mt St Helens after the eruption in 1980 I was 9 years old I remember watching him on the news describe the devastation, I can remember hearing the sorrow and concern in his voice and I somehow knew it was real. He and his wife really did make the world a better place for so many people less fortunate. He was NEVER afraid to spread the word of God and they have lived a life of helping others, and practiced what they preached. He will be truly missed, but he will be rejoicing in his heavenly home. I am so glad he is able to spend his remaining time surrounded by love.
A wonderful man❤
Good to hear Bob Schieffer again. He was always my favorite voice in the world of news.
He went from being one of the most hated Americans of his time to being one of the most shinning beacons of our beautiful American Ideals. God Bless this man.
A very good PR campaign does wonders.
A Man of Class
They have always said on my planet that Mr. Carter is one of the greatest ones and a man with compassion and a good heart is a better man, just look at all his accomplishments around the 70's and after his presidency. What a shame we don't have more politicians like him.
His biggest accomplishment was constantly putting himself in the public eye and promoting himself as a saint after his failed Presidency.
@andrionwaser6772 Look in the newspapers from the time Gacy was arrested. Probably on microfilm.
My son and I voted for him. He still is well loved by many, including myself. He was a decent
human being. We sure don't see that in our present leaders. I will be sad when he passes
another generation ending. 😢😢
Thank you Mr. Jimmy for all your years of service. WELL DONE, WELL DONE THY GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT!
He accepted his re-election defeat unlike a certain you know who.
They all did. But the most despicable one , 45.
@@Amick44 Trump was so despicable he brought us jobs, peace, and prosperity. Everyone knows the election was rigged in 2020 as it was in 1876. Trump was at least not a plaster saint.
@@bigverybadtom much of it he kept on from Obama's term. Anyhow, I like presidents who don't have Insurrection attempts, rape charges against them, multiple bankruptcies, charges of not paying contractors for their services. And who could accept election results.
BTW, til he was involved, such presidents weren't hard to find.
I wish we had a president like him now
We have one who is even worse.
Very nice Bob Schieffer, I got a lump in my throat, for Carter's decency, we no longer see in our Presidents, altho the Carter years were the worse economic years of my life as a young mother trying to raise a child with no help from the government as I didn't know about Govt programs.
We were slim, however, we carried no extra weight to slow us down, and my son grew up to be a hard worker, which I am thankful for.
May Pres Carter have a peaceful passing. In the end, comfort is a blessing Hospice is a wonderful organization, I once worked for many years ago.
I wish we had more Presidents with moral character, we all would be better off as a country.
He was one of rare and one of the best…
God bless his soul!!!
The world today desperately needs leaders like the sincerity and decency of Jimmy Carter.
He may not have been a particularly successful President but this was largely due to factors he did not cause, like inflation and, in particular, Iran. He was a great advocate for human rights and criticized human rights abuses in allied countries to the US as well as those against the US.
He has been the most successful former President in US history as well as being the oldest and the one who has lived the longest after he ceased being the President. He also had qualities like graciously conceding defeat in the 1980 Presidential election, unlike one man who was President until recently...
The world will definitely be a poorer place once he has gone and I am sure in time historians will rate his Presidency more highly, especially compared to that same man who did not concede defeat gracefully.
God bless Jimmy Carter and his family.
Dealing with factors they didn't cause is what leaders do. He was a horrible President especially with regards to iran.
A wonderful man whose Presidency was full of crises yet he tried his best. It didn't work out for him but he accomplished some good things. He wasn't your typical politician and could not be bought. This along with events largely beyond his control meant he was a one term President. He and his wife are a model of integrity, compassion and love. I wish we had more of that in 2024.
Surprisingly, he is still alive! 98 years!!
Praise God \○/ Cross ✝️
Lawrence Walsh lived to be 102.
He did his best with what was infront of him and he's a good man.
He sleeps soundly at night.
99 now and he is still with us. But I am sad that he is going to leave us soon.
His presidency may not be the best mainly bcuz of the reason out of his control particularly iran. But he still will be remembered as a great humanitarian.
One of the good ones.
I will be crying my eyes when I hear he dies… He is truly a saint 😢❤
Don't cry. It's a celebration. He'll be at rest finally.
And Rosalynn was too.
What a hero
He was a man who had a Great campaign with winning commercials..a great unknown
What a wonderful human being he is...
Mr. President they talked bad about you but you are simply the best and you will be remembered more than them. ❤️❤️❤️
Because he was a bad President. And he kept promoting himself and putting himself in the public eye after he got voted out.
@@bigverybadtom what do they say about you
@@user-tr5tr3xf2d That I'm telling the truth, I guess.
@@bigverybadtom 😂😂😂
@@user-tr5tr3xf2d Well, I am. Deal.
Most honest reporting I have seen cbs do in decades
God bless him and his family and our nation.
Wholesome man wholesome marriage a real President to admire
Plenty of Presidents have had good marriages and didn't cheat on their spouses.
Presidents day combines Lincoln and Washington's birthdays, both in February. Those two birthdays, the 12th and 22nd, were day off holidays which didn't sit well with those who love to see people work. It ended up being a tribute to all presidents.
Phenomenal American. He will be truly missed.
A President with a soul. Than you, sir
I have always wished to meet Jimmy Carter personally.
Hugely under rated - very unlucky with the situations that arose during his tenure but still a far better man (and POTUS) than most of his successors.
Love this man.
Jimmy Carter 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Jimmy Carter was the President of the '70s.
Jimmy Carter
best former POTUS
Horrible President, but a FANTASTIC WONDERFUL HUMAN BEING! Too good to do that job! Bless Him! 🥰
Great point. In the and even before, being a great man and person will FAR outweigh being a decent president. Which he was anyhow. Perception is often misleading.
@@Amick44 Remembering the Carter Presidency I beg to differ.
A good man.
He will be remembered for his stand on Palestine.
OMG, I can't believe some Americans don't know who Jimmy Carter is.
Same people that flex the dollar yet dont know who is benjamin franklin or george washington
Bring Back Billy Beer!
He was handed a terrible plate as president, hard to see most others doing a better job given the circumstances.
Typical democrat mantra. Blame the other guy for your failures. 🙄
@@commonsense504 I'm referring mostly to the general socioeconomic conditions of the US at the time, and the oil crisis which was largely out of his control.
The cynicism and distrust created by Nixon's scandal certainly didn't help though.
Ronald Reagan succeeded when Carter failed.
God bless you Bob.
Shouldn't we wait???
President Carter is the blue print on how to handle ones self post Presidency…..
Yes, keep sticking yourself into the public eye so people can forget your terrible Presidency.
Jimmy carter the legend🥰🥰
Politics aside having been a solid Texas Repub all my life now living in Southern California, I respect and admire President Carter!
The first day Reagan began as the new president the ... hostages were released. Very “convenient”.
He was the last Democrat my family voted for and that was in 1976.
Fun fact: Jimmy Carter was the only Democratic president from 1969-1993, and only served 4 years during that period.
I'd never heard of jimmy Carter ever having an affair/cheated on his wife & also heard he did not any library, buildings etc..name after him something about his religious beliefs/faith in god. I could be wrong
Jimmy is the first President I vividly remember , anything bf it are faded memory (born in the mid 60’s).
I remember Mr.Carter admitting he was guilty of “having lust in his heart “ but I’ve never read of heard , at anytime, that he ever cheated on his wife. I don’t believe he ever did.
For Christians, attraction to others or lusting over is a big no no. None of us are perfect though. We’re all human.
President Carter is a good man despite the problems of the time.
@andrion waser he's a man of god and clearly show's it
Lots of Presidents never had extramarital affairs.
Happy Birthday Jimmy Carter 🎉🎉🎉
I think it is remarkable that a president can use incomplete information, synonyms, association, angling away, misleading, body language, duplication smile, manipulation, and silence to, for example, avoid discussion about the state structures.
Carter started a solar program in the Whitehouse and as soon as Ronnie ray gun took office the first thing he did was trash the solar panels declaring "my friends can't make money off this garbage" referring to big oil friends
The solar panels were worthless garbage which is why Reagan got rid of them. Sorry Charlie.
Rosaline Carter passes away in November 2023
I’m not acting like he was one of the top best Presidents by any means. But he is such a good person. He said what he felt, he tried to do what was right. He’s not a bad person, unlike most evil politicians who would obsess and abuse their power, he really tried and cared about the people, unfortunately with the inflation and gas prices of 1979 and the Iran Hostage Crisis he just had bad luck. But he still felt like a real leader and someone who wasn’t abusing his power. Till this day he will still, he will go down in history as the president who made human rights central to his own foreign policy. ✌🏻🦅🇺🇸🦅✌🏻
Outside of his political baggage that was out of his hands, he’s truly a classy person. I really hope history gives him a brighter lighting down the road he’s really misunderstood president wise.
Just remember , he outlive queen elizabeth ii
RIP to the greatest president America has ever had
Greatest president? I will say this a good man horrible President. You must have not been alive.
Um, people who remember the Carter Presdency would beg to differ.
Terrible president, he’s still alive
One of the few true Christians.. and a Democrat.
@andrion waser He did witness along with other high ranking officials of the time, UAP's or what was called UFO's back then. Then he stopped talking about it. They ARE real. And he did not idolize them, but wanted to know what they were.
Here we go again. Ｒ
wow. the poor man is in hospice and here you are.geez he isn't dead yet but you got the scoop
where's the respect??!!! just wow!!!
He tried to disclose that aliens exist but no one would listen.
@andrionwaser6772 Go outside and look up at the stars. Those stars you see are the stars in the Milky Way Galaxy. There are billions of galaxies. It is not worship it is fact. Worship is placing them above God. God created the universe and all the life in it. Human governments wanted the Earth to be the center point of creation. The only problem with that is it is not. God is real.
@andrionwaser6772 Another very good point is if the Bible says not to worship aliens as God, than aliens must exist. Otherwise such a commandment would not be necessary.
@andrionwaser6772 Just because aliens exist does not mean people should worship them. God created the universe, stars, planets, moons, and life on all of them. The problem is certain governments, and educational institutions want people to believe we are the only life in the universe. The big question is why do they lie to everyone about this. The answer may scare you.
@andrionwaser6772 So first do not draw a map of the stars and planets, second do not overlap these images with the sun and moon, third do not try to draw conclusions from these images. Here is my interpretation of these scriptures. It is not what you think. It is about the practice of astrology. Like when fortune tellers try to read you stars, or tell you your future. Hope this helps you understand the scripture better.
The face of the oil crisis. Hostage crisis and many other crisis thereof
Fine. Better than others we've had. None are perfect
Why didn't anyone talk about the fact that the department of energy and education were created under his watch.
ONLY ONE TERM? ❤😭
Same values as Bernie.
VOTE him before he too dies of old age.😢😢😢
April 18th, 2023 - this legend will pass.😓
We shall see what happens when April 18th 2023 does come around the corner.
I feel like Joe Biden is going to be the next Jimmy Carter. The president who did some pretty decent things with very little recognition.
I've always said Jimmy Carter was a good man but a horrible president. Did he do some good things Sure he did.
Is Jimmy Carter alive
Yes he is, as of July 8th 2024

Everyone saying was he's not dead yet
Last real human President !
He's not dead yet!
The King James Bible, Mathew 6:2: "Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward."
Hoorah!
Guy gave us 20% inflation and a gas shortage
He was a conservative democratic who turned his back on FDR’s policy that saved the country, and he was the begging of austerity on the social welfare side. Because Reagan did actually bring back Kaynsian economics on the military side and the military surplus became used by our civilian police state. And ever since we have had more and more of that, no movement has ever had such critical success as to break that model that has been established about a half a century ago. It has so thoroughly demoralized our citizenry and destroyed our institutions that a demougouge like Donald Trump can be our modern Hitler steamrolling the Bill of Rights as his masses can’t be explained nor be dealt with by reasoning, but a mere sign of the times as the rot that has taken over.
Not much of a legacy to speak of other than incompetence,failure...
I think we can all agree on that,lol
I think it should be investigated if the American states now and then are legislated with the Bible written as a story. The word immunity (Latin immunitas, freedom from obligations to the state) comes from a religious revelation from the middle ages, most likely from a pope to become lawless, and which has since been rewritten into sovereign, absolute, and qualified immunity (legally, cannot be prosecuted for criminal act) to the president, senate (origin, the Roman Empire), congress, cabinet, and Supreme Court for law decisions and actions. The political exploitation of the vital ecosystem has now led to forest death, how will it affect people's economy, etc.
I also think The Democratic party can be a consciously misleading party name with all parties belonging to The Republican party, as current political democracy and socialism can only be about going more toward the middle, eg. The Democrats for law decisions and actions, even with the misleading word professional politician.
Furthermore, I think the people should consider voting for a real democratic party with an independent state formation to investigate if the president, parties, senate (origin, the Roman Empire), congress, cabinet, and Supreme Court overall may be guilty of a violation of democratic rights with misleading elections, economic crimes, violation of human rights with class society for adults and children, and serious environmental crime (force majeure).
The media is basically saying RIP
I know it’s a morbid joke, but I bet Carter has proof read his own death announcement.
Jimmy who? 😂
That's when we still put God in the equation. We have removed God (The Ten Commandments), and now look at us 🥀 I quit a job because they👀 said I couldn't say the word "GOD" in their👀 building 🥀🙉🙈
Our country needs an overhaul in that regard. If we don't get back to God, we have not approached to death we could possibly see.
@@Amick44 😳 God is the God of the living. No one is dead till after "The Great White Throne Judgement". We have two deaths : Death of the flesh then if you refuse to love God after the Millenium, then death of your soul what makes you you, your intellect. Then those that make it will live in the Eternity heaven on earth as God renews the earth back to its original form where there will be no sorrow, no sickness, no death, no sorrows, nothing that offends will ever exist again. God's favorite place is Jerusalem/ Yarusalem as there are no "J's" in the Hebrew alphabet. Purity with God King of Kings Lord of Lords. Amen. That's That in the Hebrew manuscripts. ❣️
Wow, treating him like he's already dead much? :(
Monster
Oil Liar
Horrible president with a big heart and lived a full life.
Jimmy Carter a very good human. Unfortunately a horrible president.
Nope.
Nope ? What's that mean 🤔 @@jeremycagle19
When he goes, he can rest in peace knowing he wasn't the worst president in our history. He's way down the line now after Biden, Obama and Clinton.
His only legacy i can admire of carter is him being the last living cold war president of america
His legacy is as the second worst president except for Sleepy Joe. His post-presidency career was excellent for mankind
as a conservative from Arkansas , President Carter is a good man ,but was a terrible President ,
Terrible President
Thank you Mr. Jimmy for all your years of service. WELL DONE, WELL DONE THY GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT!
