you know what bothered me the most about Jimmy Carter/Reagan presidential election???????

They were always bragging about HW, being a "military hero"..........and how Jimmy Carter was a back woods peanut farmer......

Jimmy Carter's Military History was being qualified as a Nuclear Armed Sub Commander........A position that requires supreme intelligence, and probably more knowledge of the military than any other job in the Military.......

I had the privilege of sitting with Carter for a half hour chat about some of the things he was spearheading since leaving the presidency.
He is one, if not the, finest human beings I have ever met. He is sincere and earnest with everything he says..... I laugh when politicians and voters claim they are religious, as if it compares to the truly religious people like Jimmy Carter..........

And I laugh at how many of the "religious" and "evangelicals" worship Trump and condone his purely immoral behavior.........
go figure..................
