One hundred-year-old Jimmy Carter
Loved nature and in Georgia Conservancy a charter (member)
He vetoed the damn for the Flint
Some people's dreams left at a sprint

Carter gave an enormous boost to 'Habitat for Humanity,' an organization which is 100% good, if that's possible. There, I've kept my comment positive! :) Gershon

Gershon, I agree that Carter did a lot of good. I believe in taking care of the earth itself and caring for animals and humans that inhabit it. I think all people should have a clean, warm and dry environment with food to eat. Some people don't agree with all other people's political views though. Our area called Sprewell Bluff is where one of the dams was to be located. Some businesses were counting on the jobs that would come from the dam then others were looking forward to the tourism profits. SK

Mr. Carter, a man that didn't want to set the world on fire; He just wanted to keep his nuts warm.

Chris, Thanks for the touch of humor. I think his brother ran the farm after Jimmy went into politics and Jimmy never went back to farming. Sara K
