Jimmy Carter Has Cancer

[Peter Lemkin]

From another thread:

Was everyone aware of this episode I describe in the essay:

"Before leaving the subject, it's interesting to speculate on another possible aspect of the pressure campaign brought to bear on Carter to let the Shah into the United States. Everyone knows that John McCloy served on the Warren Commission. In May of 1979, Carter was visiting Los Angeles to make a speech at the Civic Center. He had still not allowed the Shah into the country. The police apprehended a man with a starter's pistol in the crowd. When they questioned the suspect, he told the authorities he was part of a four-man assassination team. His function was to fire a diversionary shot into the ground while the other members shot at Carter from a nearby hotel. Although the police were skeptical, they later found that a room at the hotel was rented by a man the suspect had named as part of the plot. In that room was a shotgun case and three spent rounds of ammunition. Further, the occupants had checked out the day of the assassination attempt. The apprehended suspect's name was Raymond Lee Harvey. One of the men he named as a co-conspirator was Oswaldo Espinoza Ortiz. (Time, 5/21/79)About four months later, Carter admitted the Shah."

Coincidence or conspiracy?

And then there was the October Surprise to end prematurely his Presidency and legacy. He was a targeted man. Also, the only President I can think of who actually spent his retirement DOING something useful and saying meaningful things - not just counting their money and making deals to further their money and power. He even in his last several years has criticized [subtly and gently] the powers behind the curtain. While far from a perfect President, he was too much a man of the People, supporter of the Constitution, and his own man [not fully under their control] he had to be dealt with - and was. Sadly, given his current diagnosis, he won't live much longer. His Houses for Humanity alone is such a break with what ex-Presidents do - and he had many other causes, peace missions, and significant actions and statements after his Presidency. After JFK, it was all downhill - by design [sculpted at 12:30 on Elm St., Dallas, TX]. A few little bumps here and there - but soon hammered down and eliminated. You can bet your bippy there won't even be anyone like Carter (much less so anyone like JFK!) ever again this side of the Revolution.
