He was lots of things but not stupid. The man was highly intelligent but, unfortunately, it seems he was also selectively uneducated.Remembering back to his time in office, it's entirely possible he's too stupid to die.

"Selectively uneducated" is a very common state of being, on all sides of every topic.
I was in college when he got elected. I remember my physics prof teeing off on him because he - a man who once served on a nuclear submarine - could not pronounce the word, "nuclear". Jimmy would say something close to "nu-cuh-ler". Carter's "Georgia Mafia" was little more than a gang of thieves and several ended up in prison. I don't think Carter was crooked, but he didn't a pool of people around him that knew how to run things. He was also a micromanager, as evidenced by the way the White House screwed up the hostage rescue attempt in Iran. (Let's face it, the Allatollah played him like a sock puppet.) In later years, Jimmy tried to win public sentiment by working with Habitat for Humanity. People I knew that were hard core volunteers at that organization hated him. They said he'd show up, pose for pictures driving a nail, and then leave without so much as waving to the other people working the job. Fake news ate it up, of course. He has managed to live long enough to have not one, but two presidents worse than him: Obama and Biden.He was lots of things but not stupid.

remember "Billy Beer?"
A friend visited Gilley's the day they delivered a truck load of Billy Beer. People were lined up and buying 6 packs and DUMPING out the beer in the parking lot, just to collect the cans. He decided it was insane and left without buying.After my grandfather passed away, we were going through cabinets at my grandparents' house to downsize things for my grandmother and in the back of a kitchen cabinet I found a pristine, unopened can of Billy Beer. I kept it on a shelf as a curiosity for quite a while, but I don't know what happened to it. I suspect my mother threw it away at some point LOL. Pity.

Golf Legend Chi Chi Rodriguez Dies at 88
Juan "Chi Chi" Rodriguez, one of golf's best and most animated players, died on Thursday at the age of 88.www.breitbart.com
"Outside of golf, Rodriguez was known for his tireless philanthropy. Rodriguez came from humble roots in Puerto Rico to collect 30 career victories between the PGA TOUR and PGA TOUR Champions. He took as much pride in his Chi Chi Rodriguez Youth Foundation in Clearwater, Florida, that helped at-risk youth achieve academic, social and economic success.
"'A man never stands taller than when he stoops to help a child,' he said in his World Golf Hall of Fame biography when he was enshrined in 1992."

Most presidents since WWII couldn't pronounce it. Kennedy, Ford, Carter, HW, Slick Willie and W all said "Nuke-ya-ler", as did Eisenhower. Reagan's the only one I'm sure pronounced it right.
Yeah, back in those days I was still in college, an educated intellectual (Didn't even have My BS at the time.) and a big Carter fan. Even then, I cringed at Nuk-e-er, and hated it when those knuckle draggers promoting evil crap like "free enterprise" made fun of him for it.What’s funny was that back in college during the W years I remember him getting absolutely roasted over it without anyone mentioning how many presidents pronounced it that way.
