I'm sure President Carter was and is so proud of his grandson. Well done, Jason.
😢
.
This young man is humble, humorous and handsome. Seems down home like his grandfather. If he ever runs for president, he has my vote
I was thinking the same thing!❤
Me too ❤

RIP President Carter. What a loving and powerful tribute by Jason Carter for his grandfather.
True Love.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤RIP to a fine gentleman.
What a beautiful person Jason is. So fitting to be the one delivery the eulogy. It is reassuring to have someone so brilliant and personable addressing our great country on behalf of the life of a great man who happened to be President from Jan 1977 to Jan 1981. // Jason served in the Peace Corps in South Africa after college. In South Africa he worked on education issues in rural areas.
yes I was deeply touched by this speech at the Funeral for Jimmy Carter and grateful that I have the opportunity to participate in the celebration via the Internet . A Voice that has präsented the heart for American's and the World.❤
His Eulogy had me in tears

Carter grandson Jason’s eulogy was exquisite, profound and a perfect capsulizing of an amazing life~!
What a great man and a great eulogy❤
I really love listening to Jason Carter speak...his intelligence and compassion are soothing. I hope he runs for President one day. Side note: he looks great for 49 years old. Those are some good genes in that family!
From the moment I wake up until I lay my head I will sing of the goodness of God. Amen
Hi 👋 Julia can I ask you a question....?
@Bobbyrobin56 What is your question? Speak up, don't be shy.
Thank you Jason, your eulogy is very empowering and inspirational. President Jimmy Carter was one of the Greatest humans in the universe. We will miss him.
Thank you, JASON CARTER! for this eulogy. thank you for sharing the greatness of your grandfather in his private and public life ...like you said "until He laid his head to rest" I hope His example will open the heart and mind of all the leaders of the world and millions of people around the world to have PEACE ! Thank you again for this not only beautiful, sincere but POWERFUL (speech) 👏❤ MY SINCEREST CONDOLONCES to you and to the family ! To Us who lost the GREATEST leader of ALL TIME!
He was truly a great man an awesome humanitarian ° he served our country well ❤ 🇺🇸 Jason did a wonderful job honoring his grandfather ° may God comfort President Carter's family 🙏🏼 🕊️
Well said ! Beautiful eulogy fr a great Man! A real citizen of the world ! The reason I admired President Carter as a little kid growing up in Malaysia !

What a fabulous eulogy. President Carter will always be remembered by me, a Canadian, with love and thanks for all he brought, peacefully and lovingly to nations far and wide. May he Rest in Peace.❤
Lovely words
He was a great man with a humane trait. May he be received by God's angels in heaven 🙏
Jason, your eulogy was excellent, balanced upon the man, the husband and father as well as his principled works. I remember his stance on public education , practicing what he preached with his youngest in the pubic school system while in office; Making changes to decrease energy consumption, the need to protect forests and reserves. The fact that negative propaganda prevented his home country from acknowledging his works until after Purlitzer, Nobel etc. Jimmy Carter had already received the respect of the international community, In truth there is no doubt of his intellect, integrity, work ethic, with faith, passion and compassion. As was said recently by a family member who is an engineer, "He could see the consequences of action and inaction, what was the right thing to do and explained to the public in the way of an engineer. Truth, factual, without sugar coating or circus side-shows to distract. He utilized his intellect of the engineer applied to the world and took action accordingly always with his faith in which direction to follow. My love and prayers to you all Carter family from a fellow citizen born in the Peach (or peanut) state.
My wish, he'll consider following in his grandfather's footsteps and run for president. God bless him and his family! Love and Respect❤❤❤
I was thinking the SAME thing!

Gosh! This gives me chills! What a man of character President Carter was! "With every breath that I am able, I will sing of the goodness of God." Amen! Rest in peace, President Carter.
This is what makes America great. The purity and simplicity of those men and women of faith who serve unselfishly. You won't find them anywhere else. This is from an immigrant American from India.
This was such a wonderful eulogy for his Grandfather. I have delivered numerous eulogies including for my parents. It is hard to do but so rewarding to be able to tell the world the importance of those so close to you! Well done Jason!
Very gifted orator. He speaks well of his grandfather. My vote from Papua 🇵🇬 New Guinea (North of Australia)
RIP President Carter. Thank to his great work and legacy for love , peace and humanity!
God bless Jason Carter, the weight of speaking for so many memorials required great strength and commitment.
A beautiful eulogy. Jimmy Carter was a great man. Rest in Peace Mr President 🙏
I'm from Australia, and always admired Jimmy Carter and the work he did outside of his presidency. He was truly an angel on the path of life, and with his wife, Rosalynn, did so much with so little for so many. An incredible tribute by his grandson. His grandparents will be smiling.
Excellent Eulogy Jason Carter. So we'll deserved.

Wow..amazing tribute..this man needs to run for office..well done...👏
R.I P. The best President America ever had Former President Jimmy Carter. The world love and adore you. Sleep in peace .
Jason Carter, please run for office. You are smart, respectful to all races in America, you are intelligent, educated, and an eloquent speaking. I encourage you to run for office cause I believe in you and you are an
example to humanity of
America.
Absolutely, watching him today on television, this was the FIRST thing that came to my mind; here is another Jimmy Carter standing before us"
Indeed, he has the personality of his grandfather. @@JOANNEROTHSCHILD

I think he would make an excellent president
Jason is a great speaker
That was a wonderful eulogy by Jason in honour of his grandfather. The difference between him and the waste of space due to be inaugurated on the 20th Jan is like day and night. RIP President Carter.
This not the place to trash another Former President and incoming President of the United States.

BEAUTIFUL!! Job Well Done. Rest in Perfect Peace Now, President Carter
I pray that when our time is over, our grandchildren will have such great things to talk about us.

Beautiful. Heartfelt condolences to the Carter family.
Love how he told the story of his Papa's legacy, integrity, and faith, peppered with light and genuine humor. He clearly has his granddad's gift of storytelling.
Now, there are few, if any people--famous or not, former presidents or not--who could compare to or emulate Carter's loving/caring/compassionate, humble, intelligent and smart, hard-working (his entire life!), ever gracious demeanour.
Peace be with him, God rest his soul.
When I look at all the presidents and their family here, somehow I realized the Carter family had zero scandal. From President Carter and Ms. Rosalyn to their kids and on. We cant say the same for the rest. Sorry to be so honest. Respect to President Carter and their family.
@gracefrey6509 - Agree. Adding: Also Obamas had no scandal.
@@AK-fl7xj He wore a tan suit once.
@@elliotlng9998 Donald, yes tanning Creme again.
@@elliotlng9998 Which one and when? Some use tanning Creme because they hope looking healthier and younger (what it is not). Others aren't in need of that because the prefer natural looking. I do, too. - To go outside every day helps being healthy.
What a great tribute of President Carter by his wonderful Grandson. His reunion with Rosalynn will be magical.
Jason Carter thank you ❤.
R.I.P. Mr. President J. Carter 🙏🏽
Salute to the Carter Family 🫡

Thanks Mr. Carter
A wonderful tribute to a good man.
What a lovely young man. Raised right in a good family.
Hi 👋 Barbara can I ask you a question........?
Reminds me of my mother when she first got her mobile phone. We are from Kenya and truly oceans seas and mountains are the only hinge that separate us but we are all human beings. All what Jason said resonates with me
Thank you for your profound eulogy of the power of love and sharing.
Leadership of this type of integrity is lacking in todays world!
"Do justly, love mercy , and walk humbly with God." Something we should all aspire to do. Thank you President Carter for your service. Thank you Mr. Jason Carter for a brilliant eulogy.
It’s from the Bible!

What a beautiful tribute to President Jimmy Carter his grandson Jason made!
You can bet he will be a lot like him!
We needed this reminder in this moment: that life is long... and presidencies short
He gave a good speech
Yes❤
This was lovely; it was inspiring and it brings tears to my eyes! Now watch the faces of the "famous" people who represent us now. One can't even smile at a joke or humorous remark.
No matter what side that you are on he was a godly man!
Heartfelt condolences to the Carter family. It's amazing how God works, the country got a chance to witness his grandson, Jason. Jason's eulogy was heartfelt and sincere. Hopefully, he'll consider following in his grandfather's footsteps and run for president. He would win.
Hi 👋 can I ask you a question,.,...?
R.I.P. President Jimmy Carter. Awesome tribute to your grandfather. He was the first President I ever voted for at the age of 19, my first election. My baby girl was 3 months old and in a baby carrier. Thank you for your love service ❤🙏
This was so powerful because it is who President Jimmy Carter is. What a beautiful family.. ❤❤❤And authentice Born Again Christians. BORN AGAIN.!!
Very moving tribute to his grandfather. RIP👍
A lovely grandson who was proud of his papa hope president elect was listening to his words because they were wise words and I think he would make a very good president
Hello 😊dear Does the idea of getting older scared you?
@ nope does it bother you
@ no not at all it’s really nice talking to you I’m impressed in your post can we be friends if you don’t mind
..... I found ..that Jimmy Carter helped build 4,300 homes....a carpenter.... humanitarian and EXAMPLE OF LOVE....
Jason has that twinkle in his eye like his grandfather. Handsome.
Beautiful tribute ❤️
I was born in N Fla. Was a child of the 60's. Witnessed many events and the critical aftermaths on our world. I have been heart broken about so much in the last 25 years or so, anxious and fearful. I have struggled to retain my sense of right and wrong, and my indigation at the errosion of our body politic. I grieve for my country, deeply and privately, profoundly. I have, in my grief, deliberated avoided news of all types. I knew of course of President Carters death but could not open my heart to "attend" most of the ceremonies. This came up on my computer feed today. This eulogy was so beautiful and loving that I am moved beyond belief to hope again, and at last cry the tears held so long in my heart. Thank you for the peace!
Jimmy and Rosalyn would be so proud!
Hi Carol can I ask you a question....?
Hello 👋😊dear Does the idea of getting older scared you?
Eloquent and passionate speaker, straight from the heart.
America needs another Jimmy Carter, not what you're getting. President Carter's legacy will live on for generations.
President Carter was inspiring in the way he carried himself. Read alot on his Presidency, he leaves an indelible mark on those, like me, who've looked up to him just to draw encouragement to do all that is good. RIP Mr President.
Condolences to this family. It sounds like he was a fine man. And helped usher in the world a fine grandson. Sorry ladies he's married.
What a fine young man! Outstanding Eulogy.
he's almost 50! Such a youthful presence though.
And May God bless You All Jason Look After One Another 🙏 ❤ 💕 👏👏👏💚🇦🇨👌👌👍🙏✌🤗
He bleeds blue 💙
What a tribute. The love is so apparent.. thank you. ❤
I love the song he spoke of. Jason hold on to all your memories. What a man of God he was and you to Jason. Peace I send you. 🙏
Hi 👋 Lori can I ask you a question.,.....?
@Bobbyrobin56 Good morning! Yawn- ha- ha... I don't usually look at utube now, early Sunday morning. Do a little folding my hands, reading Gods Word & today be in Gods house for much of my morning... Sooo you may ask me what's on your mind & I'll do my best to answer your question. Meanwhile do have a good day. 🙏😊
Absolutely beautiful, dedicated speech, honouring his poppa and gramma. I had tears of joy listening to this young man’s love and admiration for his roots. May President Carter RIP. ❤️❤️

This was not a funeral for Jimmy Carter, this was his homegoing. He made his calling and election sure! Jason did an excellent job.
Fare thee well, on that Great Getting Morning, fare thee well🥰🙏🏾
Jason's recounting of the cellphone incident (2:44-3:08) had me giggling. Very witty and well-spoken. He's a fantastic speaker.
I wonder if Jimmy had an iPhone and was FaceTiming without knowing it 😂
What a great testament to President Carter. This was such an honest, heartfelt, and loving eulogy. What a great speaker Jason Carter is. RIP, President Carter. You were a fine man with rich, common sense, and biblical values.🙏😇🙏

What a testament to the power and goodness of God in his life. He reminds me of Atticus Finch whose life was the same within his home as well as outside.
Hi 👋 Julie can I ask you a question....,.?
Beautiful!
I loved Jimmy Carter. He was one of the good President's. He was the only President that sent my whole 6th grade class letters. That was back in the the 70's.
Thank you President Carter. Will always love you for the Christian President you were.
Rest in Peace. Prayers for the family
Beautiful your grandfather is very very proud!🙏
