Carter definitely had the more entertaining family. If only William Faulkner or Tennessee Williams had lived to meet the Carters, they would have had a field day writing about them.

Tennessee Williams (died 1983) did meet them. He was their guest in the White House on at least one occasion, if I recall correctly (forgive me if I'm wrong).

I apologize for imputing more class to the Carters than they deserved. It's just that Clinton was so flamboyant about everything that all that seemed so dull!

Rats, I knew I should have looked that up.:)

You made me look it up, though, and among many other things I didn't want to know about him was that he died in 1983 from choking to death on a bottle cap.

This could be a lesson to us all, use the bottle opener, not your front teeth.
