Jimmy Carter isn't a wimp

TIL the guy who played Marcus in Babylon 5 is related to Jimmy Carter!

Tangently related, recently I found out the guy who voiced Chef Louis in The Little Mermaid is related to a Frenchman who made Europe piss their collective pants

It's not too late to write in Carter, kids!

(... lest someone get pissy, this is a joke but hey, wasting a third party vote on him is better than giving it to that Russian shill Jill Stein)

dementia is a bitch.

If someone votes early but dies before Election Day is their vote still valid?

Conversely can someone who turns 18 on Election Day vote early?

No, and yes.

He has to survive until November 5. By the way. When the right say dead people are voting as evidence of fraud this is the scenario they refer to. Obviously Jimmy Carter isn’t committing fraud by voting.

My favorite Dead Person Voting myth ‘GOTCHA’ that Fox News found and ran 24/7 was an elderly woman in GA who voted in 2020 and who did the Old South thing of referring to herself as Mrs Robert Smith (I’m making the name up, don’t remember) but the spread sheet didn’t include the honorific so Fox was all LOOK! Robert Smith has been dead for four years and yet he still voted by mail!!!1!

Oops.

So we don't have to shred mail-in Trump votes this time, we only have to kill mail-in Trump voters before the 5th of November?

Mr. Soros will be pleased.

So, since I've bumped this thread, anybody wanna start the clock? Assuming that he's been told we've failed him, of course.

And he's gone.

Well shit.

Probably couldn't face another four years of Trump.

One of the most underappreciated politicians, perhaps the most underappreciated, of my lifetime.

So, is 100 years long enough for goodness to be real, or was his life still "performative woke" to the beardo-brigade?

RIP Jimmy Carter

Now who are the Dems gonna nominate in '28?

He was a good man who lived a good long life. Rest in peace.

For those of you too young to remember.

Al Gore?

Here's a paragraph from Jonathan Alter's reflections as Carter's biographer:




"By this will all men know that you are my disciples, if you have love one for another"

Inasmuch as anyone can discern whether another person's faith is sincere just by observation, almost no high-profile American made his case better.

Props to Jimmy holding out long enough that the nation will officially be in mourning on Trump’s inauguration.

I wonder what day the funeral will be on. January 20th is probably a good day for most people to show up.

That didn't take long.
