Jimmy Carter: “I think the Democrats, and indeed the nation, are looking for an end to distrust.”

But inside Palestine, outside of Israel, where the Israelis occupying forces are there, the persecution and deprivation of the Palestinians is horrendous.

Carter says the animosity directed at the president over health care, the big bailouts, is being driven because Mr. Obama is a black man.

All of us owe them our gratitude and respect.

I don't agree with that at all.
