The United States should be the pre-eminent champion of freedom and the most generous of all industrialized nations, Carter said. Those are the indications of a real super-power.
Carter shared two experiences that he said have been most memorable from througout all his travels and volunteer work.
He said he will never forget the image of a young woman holding her right breast, so swollen with the attempted exit of a guinea worm that it looked like she was holding a baby in her arms.
The second image Carter recalled was of a young Ethiopian girls eagerness to demonstrate that she, like her brother, could use the small latrine their father had made for them.
She spread her skirt out very carefully and she squatted down to relieve herself. Carter said.
Carter added jokingly, We took some pictures of it.

"Carter added jokingly, We took some pictures of it.
You or I might go to jail for that.
the most generous of all industrialized nations, Carter said."
We're NOT the world's most generous superpower?
Surprise, Jimmuh! We are!
"We're NOT the world's most generous superpower?"
Shift to a percentage of GDP instead of total foreign aid, and ignore all but government aid ... if you do this, then no, we're not. We're stingy, you see, in the eyes of our socialist betters on the international scene.
the pre-eminent champion of freedom check.
and the most generous of all industrialized nations, check.
Those are the indications of a real super-power. Looks like we qualify.
What is it about failed RAT presidents that makes it impossible for them to just STFU?
Carter who?Is he one of those loud mouth democraps?
How do we do that if we aren't willing to remove oppressive mass murdering dictators who spend their nations wealth on war machines (supplied by our french Russian and Chinese buddies) to take away freedom from their nieghbors?
The second image Carter recalled was of a young Ethiopian girls eagerness to demonstrate that she, like her brother, could use the small latrine their father had made for them.
Makes you wonder how many pictures he took of Amy urinating, and if he has them pinned up in his woodworking shop.
Jimmah! Your mother says "Shaddup you fool!"
Yet another point establishing that Clinton was the SECOND worst US president. Ever.
This is so bad, it could be a joke....then again, this is Carter we are talking about.

Jimmie the loon, needs to be put away in a rest home where nice little ole white-haried ladies can sit around and listen to his ravings...
"We're stingy, you see, in the eyes of our socialist betters on the international scene."
Oh, absolutely. Because we know how much aide they poured into us after the hurricanes (sarc).
"Makes you wonder how many pictures he took of Amy urinating, and if he has them pinned up in his woodworking shop."
Progressives do tend to fixate upon bodily functions, in "humans" as well as other, more deserving life forms.
It's elevated to art, even.
You got to wonder why there are filthy rich Democrats. Shouldn't they be giving all that money away like they expect every one else to? Everyone should be generous, EXCEPT THEM!
"Shouldn't they be giving all that money away like they expect every one else to?"
From thee, thine. But not from me, mine.
I'm sure this inappropriate comment will be splattered all over the TV news for the next week, just like Bennett's abortion remark. Then, Jimmah can explain how he was taken out of context.
"Then, Jimmah can explain how he was taken out of context."
But, then again, Bennett's comment was not inappropriate in context. In, or out, of context, this comment by a former president is rather creepy and voyeuristic.
