The Web site includes a biography detailing the former president's oldest son's move from "Navy brat" to peanut farm hand to business consultant "fascinated by the art of hedging - the use of futures markets to protect profit margins."

I'm sure he was a "brat," but all his family knows about America is how to destroy it.

Keep listening buddy

I didn't know Jimmy Carter had a son. I though Amy was his only child.

Jimmy Carter's Son 'Listens' for Campaign Cash

I'll pay him a dollar if he'll listen to me explain all the ways his dad is a douchebag.

[Dog Gone]

Shows how much I know. I thought Amy was the only Carter kid.

I didn't either.
Maybe he's been in the closet all these years.

[yldstrk]

I think Amy is his youngest child.

Reminds me of a Seinfeld bit...

"He's a great candidate. He listens."

"Does he actually do anything?"

"No."

[Chode]

most people get paid for talking not listening, but i guess you do what you are good at...

[geezerwheezer]

While he listens, I sure hope he doesn't listen to his father, or he will go the wrong way on everything. Maybe he should ask his daddy how to lose an election bigtime though.

He sounds like he's as big a goofball as his old man.

Amy was the only Carter child to live with them in the White House, therefore got all the publicity and attention of our ever-lovin' media.

"I'll pay him a dollar if he'll listen to me explain all the ways his dad is a douchebag."
You are way too generous to a recipient of doubtful worthiness. A handful of expired grocery discount coupons clipped from an yesteryear newspaper ought to do.

[RoadTest]

He has a bad name to live down if he wants to make it in politics.

[ncountylee]

Hard to polish a turd from that tree.

"listening tour" ???

Clintonism, I presume. More puke for the laptop.

Upon graduation in 1946 from the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, Carter married Rosalynn Smith. The Carters have three sons, John William (Jack), James Earl III (Chip), Donnel Jeffrey (Jeff), and a daughter, Amy Lynn.

Too bad it would be a thinking tour.
