The word “great” is too often overused to the point it has no meaning.
Not in this case.
Jimmy Carter was a great man. A great father. A great husband. A great giver. A great man of his faith. A great American. A great soldier. A great believer in justice. A great man of courage. A great example of altruism and selflessness. A great man of truth worthy of our trust. A great inspiration for us all, regardless of politics.
His presidency gets a mixed grade as do all leaders in challenging times, but in retrospect he may have been exactly what America needed in the aftermath of Vietnam and Watergate when we longed to believe in ourselves again. His post-presidency defines the very essence of giving back to society and the greatness of genuine love.
What a life.
Thank you, President Jimmy Carter.
