    Ten years ago, Carter was signing his new book in Borders. The secret service did not allow anyone to stand before him in line for too long. When it was my turn, I asked Carter if it was true that he was still a Sunday school teacher. Carter looked up, gave me a big smile and started a long conversation with me; he was very proud of being a Sunday school teacher. I will always cherish this moment.

      Carter was a man with a consciensce. One of the first things he did was to set free/pardon young men who had refused to go to the Vietnam war. Today that would be a Libertarian party decision only.

      An insignificant correction. Jim Carter graduated from the Naval Academy with a BS in Engineering; he graduated with distinction. It's not clear what type of engineering. I suspect Mechanical Engineering was the only engineering major offered. He got into nuclear engineering as the executive officer on the first nuclear submarine. He received a hardship discharge after his father died suddenly and he had to take care of the peanut farm.
