    President Carter has one more bucket list item he would like to accomplish before his last breath – the opportunity to vote against Donald Trump.

    Up to the last moment of his life, he has been trying to do what is best for our country.

    If he makes it to Jan 20th and if Harris is inaugurated, first time in history there will be 7 living US presidents. Let’s do this.

    A remarkable man who happens to hold the namesake of one of the most badass submarines ever built!

  4. NO YOU CANT WRITE THIS YET!! If he dies in the next 2 hours, I’m blaming USA Today and I will make it my personal life’s mission to bankrupt the entire organization and everyone associated with it

  5. He was the first president I remember as a child and I was so excited to have a girl roller skating in the white house that I named all of my stuffed animals after Amy Carter. ❤️
    (Would it be terrible to admit that I’ve checked his wiki every day several times per day since I learned he was in hospice care?)

  6. I’m a Republican and Carters term as President was not a very good one but I will say that what he accomplished afterwards was awe inspiring. I respect him and Rosen so much, a truly wonderful human being. My wife and I love going to Habitat for Humanity Restores and supporting the cause. It will be a very sad day when he passes but he will finally be reunited with the love of his life. He will go down as probably the best ex-presidents for his humanitarian efforts.

  7. Happy Birtday Jimmy, one of the finest presidents ever. Humble as hell, with humility flowing through your veins !

  8. I’m convinced he’s hanging on long enough to cast his final vote. He’s a true patriot.

    Jimmy is a good dude. We all should strive to be like Rosalyn and Jimmy Carter. Pure integrity, compassion, honesty, and intelligence. I wish more were like them.

  11. It won’t surprise me if he dies shortly after Harris’s inauguration. The man has a will of steel to sustain him till he sees the country in safe hands, and once it is, he can go in peace.

    If his bday is tomorrow, why do people keep talking about it today? Dont jinx it!

    Honest question.

    If he votes by mail and then dies, does his vote still count on election day?

    I assume it would, as it was technically a casted vote.

    God bless.

    I hope he sent in his mail in ballot.

    I hope he lives to see Harris be sworn in.

    Salute. You are a national treasure. You’ve become America’s royalty, and deservedly so. You will forever live on in the annals of our history as definitive proof that is possible for a United States president to be a good person.
