  • Summary

  • As we close the year with the passing of America’s 39th president, Jimmy Carter, we are reminded of the long arc of history and the profound complexities that shaped his presidency. Carter, who lived to the age of 100, outlasted many of his critics and, in a way, even outlived his own political obituary. Yet, as the nation reflects on his life and legacy, it is evident that the core lesson of his presidency is one that echoes beyond the political sphere: Good intentions alone are not enough. The presidency is not just a platform for virtue; it is a high-stakes role demanding competence, strategic vision, and the ability to navigate turbulent waters.
