I'm off to build houses with Jimmy Carter!!! |
|
I'll be out of pocket for the next week, because I'll be participating in the Habitat for Humanity Jimmy Carter Work Project in Benton Harbor, MI. If any southwest Michigan DUers happen to be around, or if any of you will be there, I'm scheduled to work on house #17. Just ask for the DUer from Tennessee!
Any messages to pass along to Jimmy Carter, let me know!

2. Please tell him for me that no embodiment of "being right, rather than |
|
being President" ever existed. He's one of the few Americans ever to be bigger than the Presidency. He's a hero and an American treasure, and I admire the hell out of him.
Just tell him, okay?

Trust me you're going to meet some awesome people as you do so! It was a pleasant surprise to me to fnd that there were just as many Republicans as there were Greens, Democrats and Independents. I really enjoy working with these guys and feel so humbled when I hear of their heartfelt contributions to society.

We need more good people in the Democratic Party that can command some national attention.

5. Please tell him for me |
|
That he is a true representative for Christianity in action. With one swing of a hammer he has done more for the needy than all the hypocrites in their palaces preaching a gospel of intolerance and greed.

7. Great! Say hello, and thanks! |
|
I have given to Habitat before I became "poor" and still support their work. This is what Jesus really meant. Tell Mr. Carter we appreciate his work and the work of Habitat.

8. Please let him know he was a great president and he is a good man. |
|
Tell him that Kim from Athens, GA loves him and supports all of his and the Carter Center's efforts to make the world a better place!
I love him and Rosalyn so much. History will redeem his record as president. The repubs try to tear him down but they can't. I am a Georgian and I am so proud of him! He is a true Christian!
BTW, I've worked on Habitat homes in my town. The American Society of Landscape Architects local chapter voluntereed to landscape the homes! We had plants, trees, soil ammendments and labor donated to make the homes beautiful! Most importantly, we planted shade trees! I drive past one of the homes sevral times a year and am always amazed at how good the landscape looks and how happy the family is!

Our local chapter has a fund drive going on and it was a pleasure to drop some dough into the box. When we get a project going, I, too, plan on participating.
No message to Carter from me, he already knows!

14. Ask him how serious he is about exposing the corrupt elections. |
|
Ask him how serious he is about mandating a VVPB trail for all election machines and making sure it is required, in the June 30th hearings. http://www.commoncause.org http://www.votersunite.org
