Filed Under Barack Obama, Democratic Party, Election 2008, Jimmy Carter
Former President Jimmy Carter isn’t formally endorsing anyone to be the Democratic nominee in this year’s presidential campaign, but Carter does sound like he really likes Barack Obama. (H/T to DripperUnderground).
Jimmy Carter says he’s not formally endorsing any candidate, but in an interview with the Wall Street Journal, the former president lavished praise on Barack Obama, calling his campaign “extraordinary”
“Obama’s campaign has been extraordinary and titillating for me and my family,” Carter told the newspaper in an interview published in its Wednesday edition. According to the paper, Carter was particularly praiseworthy of the Illinois senator’s rhetorical skills, comparing them to those of Martin Luther King, Jr.
