    As a Carter Center volunteer during my graduate schools days in the early 1990s, I made two trips to Plains. In those days, people didn't have to sleep in their cars or need tickets for their seats. I happened to sit directly behind Mrs. Carter for the service. Afterwards, President Carter joined about 15 of us for his Sunday School sermon in one of the church's classrooms. He stood the whole time, just several feet from me, and, as he does in this video, talked about Paul! Then The Carters posed for photos outside, with the Secret Service in the distant background, smiling for the cameras. That day was one of many fantastic experiences I was privileged to enjoy with The Carters and The Carter Center.

    Great man and humanitarian that we should all strive to follow. So humble and unassuming but a force for good. My mom who was a Georgia native loved President Carter and was proud to be in the group of those from Georgia. I always believed that his presidency was one that should have set the tone of how a president conducts himself. Yes, he was beset by problems beyond his control, just kept getting hit from all sides, but he never lost his cool, remained dignified and humble. His honesty and integrity was the best of traits, but, our society couldn't handle it nor were we ready for one such as him. Humbleness at it's best.

    I have always admired Jimmy Carter since I first met him when he came to my high school in 1973 as governor...one of the best memories of my life was staying up all night with my Dad on election night 1976 to see if Carter would win (I didn't even have to go to school the next day...first and only time). A man of integrity and honesty...things that partisans on any side don't seem to like. God bless President and Mrs. Carter.

      Reagan exploited Jimmy’s humanity. Had we known Reagan was not what he claimed, I think most Americans would have voted Carter in 1980. Even with his Cabinet member getting in trouble, Jimmy ran one of the cleaner Administrations and was one of our few Presidents who did not get troops killed overseas in foolish oil wars or resource based wars.
