Another fricken LAWYER. I’m starting to think that passing the bar exam should automatically disqualify you from holding elected office.

But then again, Ahnold Schwarzenrino.

Nevermind.

Hopefully, Georgians will give him a VERY short political career and end it before it starts.

One Carter (like one Kennedy) was bad enough!!!

Look up the purported, original 13th Amendment, which barred lawyers from elected office. Documentation of ratification is supposed to have gotten "lost" in the immediate, post-Civil War tumult and the federal power grab that followed during Reconstruction.

Some say it's a hoax. There's a certain logic to the notion, though. The Democrat Party would be decimated.

Oh, well, his sons have been hidden all these years, smart sons, who wants to be connected to “Jimmay”?

He better not if he wants to get elected - DeKalb County is almost nothing but Jews and Africans these days. Talk about a country that's undergone a complete transformation since the good old days when Jimmah was Guv'nor and President.

(Those good old days weren't "good" because of Saint Jimmah, but DeKalb was a nice place back in the 70s.)

Unfortunately the Constitution says “no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood” so he’s legally eligible to seek office...and anyway Jimmy was never formally tried for treason.

That district has a large black minority, but it is likely that most of the district’s white Democrat voters are Jewish, so I don’t know which way Carter’s name will cut. The RAT primary will likely decide the election.
