PRESIDENT CARTER: PRAY TELL ME WHAT PORTION OF OBAMA IS BLACK AND WHAT PORTION IS WHITE? IS IT THE LEFT HALF AND RIGHT HALF OR TOP HALF AND BOTTOM HALF. HIS MOTHER WAS WHITE—MAYBE YOU ARE TELLING US THAT WOMEN DON’T COUNT IN YOUR EYES—DOES AMY AGREE WITH YOUR DISDAIN FOR WOMEN?

PLEASE LET ME KNOW—OF COURSE YOU WON’T, BECAUSE YOU DON’T HAVE THE GUTS TO DO SO AND I ALMOST VOTED FOR YOU, GLAD I GOT MY HEAD SCREWED ON STRAIGHT AND DID NOT. FRED PIERCE, MESA, AZ.

Jody was a kind man, too. leaving newsweek for a spokesman;s job with Schlesinger and the Energy Dept, and under fire from every thing and everyone from the church to the lawnmower lobby, Jody found time to send a card every once in a while, and a few hints. he stood tall like one of his heroes,general Jackson of stonewall fame. ave atque vale Jody

So what Lewis is trying to tell us is that, eventually, he betrayed the party that gave him his entire identity. Let’s hope he never writes anther word on issues of gratitude and loyalty. I think we’ve read enough.

totally shocked and sadden by news of JOdy’s death. A friend prior to and since days in Georgia Government under Governor Carter, AIP and other activities, campaign trails in snow and heat, cheap motels and great proples. Jody always with that smile and Southern charm and voice. He and others made the intro of Governor Carter to those that launched him into the White House. The Southern Gentleman always. He, Dan, Ham and the whole crew worked knowing that Jody always put the right twist for proper presentations and representation of that of which he believed in profoundly. The passing of Jody and others recently, saddens me as i see histroy in each and everyone. Bless the family and all friends of Jody and God’s Grace with his passing.

Reflections & In Memory of Jody Powell……….

I was shocked to learn the news this afternoon that Jody Powell had passed away. I had the honor and pleasure to know Jody when I lived and worked in Washington D.C.. He was an amazing man and served President Carter so well and our country. There are people you meet and know in the journey of life that make a great impression. They enrich one’s life beyond any words one can totally express. Jody Powell was one of those amazing souls. He had a style that complimented his ability 24/7. If we all live to be 100 years young, it appears to go by so fast in this part of the journey. God Bless you Jody in your new journey. My deepest sympathies to his family.

Signed,

He was a good man that will be missed by many. He wrote on how the Media can make or take a campange.
