Crying over President Jimmy Carter on the day of his funerals. Laughing with him and David after. Such a good man and President! Love his sense of humor. Rest in Peace President Jimmy Carter. Your country loves and misses you,sir.
President Jimmy Carter was a great humanitarian and human being with a wonderful sense of humor. Rest In Peace and thank you for your service to this country and to the world.
"We told the truth, we followed the law, we kept the peace." Walter Mondale, quoted by his son, describing how Mondale and Carter characterized their approach to Carter's Presidency. Keep that in mind over the coming weeks and months.
We can hope. Also, he was not born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Plus he was someone who cared about helping others and he was not obsessed with money and power.
LOL, he had 20 more years to go. I remember when it was announced that he had cancer, I thought, "That's it. He had a great life."....and he lived 10 more years after that.
Rest in Power, President Carter. I'll bet Rosalynn and Jimmy were glad to spend some time together again! Soon they will be hanging out under their willow tree dreaming up some good trouble. The USA has two additional angels, heavens knows we need the help! Starting with housing! Thank you President Carter. 🗽
Jimmy Carter- what an intelligent, and honest man. Wow. Thank you David Letterman for sharing this, and for the thoughtful interview. Thank you President Carter and may you rest in peace.
We were lucky to have him as long as we did. All the good he brought AFTER leaving office. No one would bat an eyelash if he had just sat back and did the speaking engagements tour for the rest of his days. Instead he’s out building houses, allowing Habitat for Humanity to use his name and likeness, and trying to bring more good into the world everyday he could. He was a great man…and most importantly…a good man.
When we had respectful professional men that led the world, that were kind and looked out for us all. Hopefully honest men like this will lead us again one day and we will also have great reapectful people like Letterman who can make us laugh and yet show us the wonderful people that are with us and show how they are just like the rest of us. May god bless these men and god bless america and god bless the future that we all may have to endure in the coming years.
Riveting interview. What a human being. A public servant in one way or another throughout his entire adult life. Thank you for that Dave, Barbara, Mary and Walter. He is on his way back to Georgia, now.
Contrast Carter’s thoughtful, articulate and genuine approach to Trump’s petty, vain, adolescent mindset. Let’s hope we can make it through four more years. RIP, President Carter.
Jimmy Carter's economic were 2 fold. Once upon a time, we paid for wars, the bills usually coming due rufley 10 years after the initiation of a conflict. Remember Vietnam? The second was the energy crisis created by our dependence on foreign oil and it's escalating costs. You table the problems as best you can. He will be known as the country's last president leaving office with our national debt under a trillion dollars. By the time Reagan left office, we were pretty close to 4 trillion debt.
Rest in Peace, Former President Carter, great humantiran, great mind. I was born in 1976, I can clearly say our nation was to strung on stupidity to see how wise he was. We are on a slippery slope now. Rest in peace, Mr. Carter.
And never knew had written 18 books. And I met him & Ms. Rosalyn at a tiny reception w/ NBC News at the US Ambassador’s residence (when Bob Strauss, Republican, was ambassador) in Moscow.
The Democrats are a disappointment, they hardly if ever, talk about the significance of Jimmy Carter to the country. No president as far as i'm concerned was good for the nation and the world as JAMES EARL CARTER. REST IN PEACE THE GREATEST PRESIDENT OF ALL TIME.
Jimmy Carter parlayed his Habit for Humanity work and Sunday school teaching into covering for not only his failed presidency but his failed post-presidency impact on the world. If not for Carter, Hugo Chavez would have never been validated as President of Venezuela and who knows what a positive difference that would have made for not only the citizens of that decimated country, but of the hemisphere and the world. His approach to the Mideast post-presidency was also a failure, giving his imprimatur on the idea that Israel was/is an apartheid state, in the process not-so-tacitly giving the terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah legitimacy.
@DataRew No, it wasn't.. Jimmy signed a new treaty in 1977 that would hand over full control after 1999... the original 1903 treaty had no such language about giving it back to Panama at all, just how much we would pay them and how much land we controlled.. Jimmy gave it away

@@WhoDoctor-u2e he was objectively one of the worst presidents in history.
President Jimmy Carter was a great humanitarian and human being with a wonderful sense of humor. Rest In Peace and thank you for your service to this country and to the world.
Wow! That's a legend. He was respectful, kind, and helpful. It will be very hard for anyone to find someone like him now. May he rest in peace.
"We told the truth, we followed the law, we kept the peace." Walter Mondale, quoted by his son, describing how Mondale and Carter characterized their approach to Carter's Presidency. Keep that in mind over the coming weeks and months.
Yeah, "the Peace". The world burned with this idiot in office and the country went in the toilet.
It's nice to have a reminder that it is possible to have a President with dignity and intelligence. Hopefully we'll get one of those again some day.
We can hope. Also, he was not born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Plus he was someone who cared about helping others and he was not obsessed with money and power.
What a great humanitarian❤
We have one now with Joe Biden, at least for another week or so.
Worst president ever, until Biden.
Probably not in my lifetime
What a rockstar President Carter was. Hard to believe he was joking about his struggles of being 80 back in 2004.
LOL, he had 20 more years to go. I remember when it was announced that he had cancer, I thought, "That's it. He had a great life."....and he lived 10 more years after that.
Jimmy Carter's idea of "struggling at 80" is that he had to cut down to hammering in roof shingles to 10 hours a day instead of 14 🤣
Rest in Power, President Carter. I'll bet Rosalynn and Jimmy were glad to spend some time together again! Soon they will be hanging out under their willow tree dreaming up some good trouble.

God bless you President Jimmy Carter for your distinguished service to the American people, its nation and the world!
He lived 20 more years after this interview.
He lived a life full of grace and simple decency ❤

An exceptional interview by Dave with an exceptional person!
👌Dave was respectful. No gotcha questions. 😊
Love this man!
Thank you for posting.
Proud of my first vote - thank you President Carter.
Humble and extremely intelligent human being.
What a guy. True statesman and public servant.
He was adorable. RIP president Carter.
He has a great sense of humor too!
Money shouldn’t make any difference in elections. Sadly, That train left the station in the US with Citizens United.
Contrast Carter’s thoughtful, articulate and genuine approach to Trump’s petty, vain, adolescent mindset. Let’s hope we can make it through four more years.
RIP, President Carter.
His talents and gifts are amazing.
💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
Its amazing that he was president about 50 years ago....yet the outgoing president and the incoming president are only 20 years younger than him.
This kind of present we will never ever have again given the trajectory of today’s events😢
He might not have been a "great" President, but he was a GREAT human being!
if you get cards dealt like he was, and kept the US going through those dark times, i can't see how he's not a great president
Jimmy Carter was a great president, a honorable man, and a real leader of men!
RIP Sir.
Carter at his best!
At 80.😊

80 and sharp are a tack! You will be missed, Jimmy 😢
Such an awesome president. For trump to whine about the flag is an embarrassment to Americans.
I think it's important to remember what it looks like when a conservative and a liberal just chat. We can do that. All we have to do is say hi.
RIP , the best American president ever !!!!!
Pres. Carter had a very dry sense of humour. I was impressed.
And never knew had written 18 books. And I met him & Ms. Rosalyn at a tiny reception w/ NBC News at the US Ambassador’s residence (when Bob Strauss, Republican, was ambassador) in Moscow.
The Democrats are a disappointment, they hardly if ever, talk about the significance of Jimmy Carter to the country. No president as far as i'm concerned was good for the nation and the world as JAMES EARL CARTER. REST IN PEACE THE GREATEST PRESIDENT OF ALL TIME.
Unjust, Just UnGive that canal back, Jack! RIP though
Q. So why haven’t those responsible been held accountable?
A. Because it benefited Israel.
I remember how bad the times were when this guy was President.
Jimmy Carter parlayed his Habit for Humanity work and Sunday school teaching into covering for not only his failed presidency but his failed post-presidency impact on the world. If not for Carter, Hugo Chavez would have never been validated as President of Venezuela and who knows what a positive difference that would have made for not only the citizens of that decimated country, but of the hemisphere and the world.

If if‘s and butts were candies and nuts…
Oh, the guy that gave the Panama Canal away yep, that’s him.
I suspect /s but when the US helped create Panama, the deal was that we had a 100 year lease on the canal. It was the deal from the start.
It was our promise.
@DataRew No, it wasn't.. Jimmy signed a new treaty in 1977 that would hand over full control after 1999... the original 1903 treaty had no such language about giving it back to Panama at all, just how much we would pay them and how much land we controlled.. Jimmy gave it away
Don’t forget he let the us embssey get hijacked and allowed 50 Americans to be held hostage for 444 days
Aww, poor lil tox spewing talking points he saw of Fox, but has no clue what he is talking about!
What a great man! All the things he has done for others! Plus wrote his own books. Unlike the orange blob!
Yes, Carter was sharp as a tack and safe and effective. Now only caused the second highest inflation in US history!
How many people has Carter ever employed?
Fascists at TH-cam censor my comments
