    Jimmy Carter lives long enough to vote.
    Dies.
    The next day:
    Fox News “Kamala Harris killed Jimmy Carter!”

    I assume he’s still registered in GA? We really need that vote.

      Dude built half the state with his bare hands. He absolutely should get to vote there.

      There’s a reasonable chance he’s been purged from the rolls.

      Agreed. I’m still pretty bummed out that Betty White died 17 days shy of her 100th birthday. Hang in there Jimmy, we all need this!

        Pretty sure she did it as a joke on purpose. You know there was a massive party planned and she was like “good luck suckers, I’m out!”

          I don’t know how much say she had in it but that’s definitely her humor.

            I don’t know, my grandmother pretty much decided to let go, and she was gone, and she was supposedly in relatively good health. I could believe it.

    I’ve always said Jimmy would be prefarable to the current roaster of politicians, and I’m going to say it again.

      It fucking sucks that both Carter and Bernie are so old and so ahead of their time. Give them 40 year old bodies and they’d be the future we need.

        Give them perpetually 40 year old bodies and let them rule as two God-Emperors in repeating eight years cycles for each.

    I’d love to see the people that downvoted this show some bravery and explain what about it is unworthy of just ignoring and moving on.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
