Veteran benefits have been under attack throughout the years, regardless of who is in office. The GOP did not support those who served in terms of benefits, instead they overspent in terms of weapons, which serves no one. Jimmy Carter has raised the bar for all ex-presidents in terms of what he has done once he left office. His humanitarian efforts have been tremendous. He has worked on housing for the poor, removing guinea worms in developing countries, fair and open voting practices and many other important issues. At 90, he is now fighting cancer. God bless him. I wish him well and hope he can overcome this too, though at 90, I know it will be an uphill battle. It is unusual for a man of his age to not be battling dementia and incapacitated. Jimmy Carter remains exceptional.
