Jimmy Carter - Le président rock'n'roll

Jimmy Carter a great president with bad luck Itnis amazing to see how well he did. The hostage crises costed him a 2nd term, but see how gracious he leaves the oval office .... not like in 2021

Carter wasn't and isn't concerned with what was popular.. He was an anomaly, being a liberal from Plains, Georgia.. Not only with the music, but also how long he's been fighting for the Palestinian genocide, even calling israel an apartheid state, which might have hurt his recent book sales, but as a moral man, Jimmy Carter just told the truth. President Carter seemed to force Jerry Brown's hand - and his bands... Lots of great music, especially The Allman Brothers Band. Jimmy Carter also reached out to Ralph Nader, but didn't really follow through.

Music transcends all... People move to a melody - there's nothing manipulative about it, and people feel a sense of bonding when they remind of you of themselves. After Nixon/Watergate/Vietnam, the US wanted a change...

I liked this film a lot. It showed how Jimmy Carter used music and arts to bring people closer together, create peace between people with barriers, and sought diplomacy over military action. We could def use someone to bring us all closer together in this messed up world we live in today.

Absolute abomination of a term as president that apparently the few of us alive during this time without complete amnesia aren't ever available for consulting.

It wasn't JUST bad luck that cost him a second term.

It wasn't JUST the Iranian hostage crisis (of which my aunt was a hostage during this entire ordeal) that cost him a second term.

It wasn't JUST gasoline shortages accompanied by ridiculous spikes in gallon prices that cost him a second term.

It wasn't JUST a complete energy crisis that cost him a second term.

It wasn't JUST deplorable foreign policy that cost him a second term.

It wasn't JUST lending rates above 16% that cost him a second term.

It wasn't JUST record numbers of unemployment that cost him a second term.

It wasn't JUST a single event that cost him a second term, it was a catastrophic failure on so many levels to possibly list them all, but since Hollyweird is comprised of so many ultra liberals (yet none ever voluntarily gives more money to the IRS, or hands out thousands of their millions) this type of fluff enters into the zeitgeist and we wind up with entire generations of people who take this information as fact with no desire to verify anything.

Hollywood elites never had to push their cars through hours long lines to get gasoline, or decide what bills get paid to sustain their families for a week, or so many things that doomed this guy to go down as one of our worst presidents in history, so we'll be forced to endure countless steaming piles such as this.

Thanks but no thanks. Hard pass on Jimmy, Rosie, Billy beer, etc., I've had my fill of peanuts.

Truly great show for a truly great man. Excellent vintage video of some of the greatest musicians of the time. Finding out they they liked Jimmy makes me like Jimmy even more.

Excellent quality production from CNN and leaves one wanting more.
