You had your time. Now go away.....

So. Former president Jimmy Carter believes that President Obama is having a difficult time with things and that the prevailing reason for his problems is racism. Hmmm. Honestly. It could be. Generations of middle aged white guys (of which, I am one) have now lost the presidency to a black man and feel that maybe, just maybe, they're going to lose out to a whole generation of Americans who happen to be of color?

Of course, I'm on the outside looking in, but I doubt that's going to happen because of the whole
" You need to be richer than God to run for office in this country thing." Still, door knobs like Joe Wilson need to remember how to play nice....especially when you're being video taped while the president is making a speech before the whole nation. We teach little children not to yell out while others are making speeches in school. Just because you get free mailing because you're a congressman, doesn't mean that you're special.

In my opinion, former President Carter needs go away. End of story. You had your day in the sun and didn't do a very good job at it...if I remember right. My advice to Mr. Carter is to simply go home to Plains, Georgia, look at your Noble Peace Prize on your desk, build some habitats for the homeless, and call it good. Heck, you can even do another interview for Playboy if you want to. Just go away and leave President Obama to fight his own battles.
