    Rosalynn Carter passed away. I didn't even realize that her and Jimmy were still living.


    He is the longest lived US President ever.

    I believe Jimmy Carter to be a good man. But the road to hell IS paved with good intentions. She was a good wife and mother. She lived a long life.


    RIP

    They were good people. Jimmy did all kinds of humanitarian work.


    I remember when Carter gave the Panama Canal back to Panama, lots of people were pissed but it was probably the right decision.

    You're right. There was a lot of emotion and vitriol at the time but it was the right symbolic gesture at the time. And make no mistake... it was purely symbolic.


    (we still own the Panama Canal)

    So you're saying... China holds a piece of paper that says that they "own" the Panama Canal? Do they have it hanging on their fridge?

    They wouldn't "own" it per se, merely control what happens, which is as good as
