Jimmy Carter is like fine wine -- he has improved with age. Not a great president, but he has turned into one of the greatest ex-presidents with his concerns for global human rights and humanity in general. Not for him a jetsetting life palling around with plutocrats and dictators, or smiling on the golf course with one of the Bushes.

Unfortunately, a position's power is negatively correlated to the position's support for speaking of humanity's great concerns.
