7. SOUNDBITE (English) Jason Carter, Jimmy Carter’s Grandson:
"They were small town people who never forgot who they were and where they were from. No matter what happened in their lives. But I recognize that we are not here because he was just a regular guy. As you’ve heard from the other speakers, his political life and his presidency for me was not just ahead of its time, it was prophetic. He had the courage and strength to stick to his principles, even when they were politically unpopular."

9. SOUNDBITE (English) Jason Carter, Jimmy Carter’s Grandson: ++PARTIALLY COVERED BY CUTAWAYS OF AUDIENCE++
"50 years ago, he was a climate warrior who pushed for a world where we conserved energy, limited emissions and traded our reliance on fossil fuels for expanded renewable sources. By the way, he cut the deficit, wanted to decriminalize marijuana, deregulated so many industries that he gave us cheap flights and as you heard, craft beer. Basically, all of those years ago, he was the first millennial."

11. SOUNDBITE (English) Jason Carter, Jimmy Carter’s Grandson: ++PARTIALLY COVERED BY CUTAWAYS OF AUDIENCE++
"As you heard Stu say, as president, he gave voice to dissidents, stood up to dictators, brought countries together in peace. His heart broke for the people of Israel. It broke for the people of Palestine. And he spent his life trying to bring peace to that holy land. And he talked about it at the dinner table. It was the same in public as it was in private. Essentially he eradicated a disease with love and respect. He waged peace with love and respect. He led this nation with love and respect."

"By fate of a brief season, Jimmy Carter and I were rivals, but for the many wonderful years that followed, friendship bonded us as no two presidents since John Adams and Thomas Jefferson. Now, this is not to say that Jimmy never got under my skin. But has there ever been a group of politicians that didn’t do that to one another? During our 1976 contest, Jimmy knew my political vulnerabilities and he successfully pointed them out. Now, I didn’t like it, but little could I know that the outcome of that 1976 election would bring about one of my deepest and most enduring friendships."
