At least he lived long enough to cast a vote. That's the most important thing to some people. Not that it did any good, and not saying he was lucid enough to know what he was doing. And not that he knew what he was doing when he was president. He was the last Democrat I voted for. What can I say? I was young and stupid back then.

Carter may not have been the best President, but he’s the best man to hold that office since I’ve been alive.

I guess you were born after the Eisenhower administration. I liked Ike.

Fair point. As for Carter: we were having band practice today, and our keyboard player looked at his phone and said that Carter had died. My response was that Carter was proof that one can be a good man, but a terrible president.

U.S. — In yet another blow to President-elect Trump, aides have announced that former President Jimmy Carter will also be skipping Trump's inauguration.

Carter joins the growing list of several prominent Democrats who will not be attending Trump's inauguration, a sign of the deep divisions still plaguing the country.

"We are saddened to learn that President Carter will also be skipping the inauguration," said an aide for Trump. "While we are sure Carter has his reasons, Trump looked forward to welcoming every leader to this new chapter. We continue to hope that this next year will be one of healing divisions and coming together."

At publishing time, Biden had announced that he too was dead and would not be attending the inauguration.

In this person's opinion . . .

The funeral was its own little soap opera. Pews full of uncomfortable body language. And Michelle conspicuous in her absence.
