Mr. Carter went public with his support for at a fundraiser last week in Las Vegas in honor of Senator Biden.

"Today my wife Elizabeth and I are announcing our support for Joe Biden in his bid for the Presidency. He was the first Senator to support my Dad in 1975, and he was helpful in my own campaign last year" said Carter. "He is experienced, knowledgeable, affable and humorous. Sen. Biden has entered serious proposals into the debate on many of the issues critical to Americans - and others - today."

"His son, Beau , put it best to me a couple of months ago: 'Can you imagine what would happen if Dad came in first or second in Iowa?' That statement rang in me like a bell. I know how it can work...We did it in 1976."

3. we haven't seen the last of Jack Carter!

he may have lost in 2006, but IMO he'll be running again within four years. it's great to see people like Jack running for office while fearlessly supporting a primary candidate for President. I doubt Biden will the nomination, if he does..Jack Carter will gain plenty of political leverage.

would a dialog between father and son reveal anything interesting?
