I’ve long admired Carter. Whatever you think of his politics as president, he has proven that it is possible for a politician to be committed to real public service, and to be a good, honorable man.

Yes. Living in Atlanta, we have a lot of exposure to him and the carter center. I have a long, great story about his fishing and my fishing that I’ll share at the next show we all frequent.

point well made Tony, arguably he has done more with what the office of the President afforded him afterwards than any other. A true humanitarian ......

History will be kind to him. The stagflation of the late 70s was the result of Nixon closing the gold window in August of 1971. This freed up the FED to print money at will. By 1980 inflation stood at 13.5. Volker came in and strangled the money supply and the rest is history
