Hello, Jimmy Carter:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/10/jimmy-carter-gop-race_n_5125582.html?ncid=txtlnkusaolp00000592

Why is it news that white males in the South vote mostly GOP? Blacks vote mostly Democrat. Who cares?

Carter says whites vote because of race. And, blacks, Jimmy?

These types of analysis are stupid. Thanks for telling us what we already know. Once whites start voting 90% GOP, as blacks do for the Democrats, then get back to us, Jimmy.

GMG.com = Social Studies?

If he is using gmg.com to teach anything it probably has to do with the substitution of college football as a mistaken causa sui among the population of American males who read it.

If so, I recommend he has his kid read Becker's The Denial of Death. Though it might be a little heavy for a second grader.

He's found two states where almost 90% of whites voted for Romney...while over 95% of blacks voted for Obama.

Jimmy Carter, and other race-baitors, think this is somehow newsworthy. It's re-hash of what we already know to the nth degree. For what purpose, Jimmy?

Sometimes, I admire Jimmy Carter. For instance, for his extensive work with Habitat For Humanity. Then, he puts down the hammer and speaks, and I wonder if we are on the same planet.

Jimmy Carter is still trying to be revelant and get publicity?

Sad. Especially when he was by far the worst president of our generation.

He could learn a thing or two from 41.

A lot of deeply held beliefs in here. Coupled with a deep concern to pass these beliefs and values onto their offspring, and to convert others.

Have any of you considered the proposition that these attempts to make your ideals live on is in fact an "immortality project" resulting from the deep seated human need to deny death? That the human mind, being the only mind capable of both understanding life and impending end is driven to reject that mortality by subscribing to a hero system that your culture created in order to reject death?

Whether that project is to stop godless communism, or spread the equality of communism, or worship the one true god, or save the earth from climate change, or just see the Mean Green make one national championship game?
