Jimmy Carter: “I'm very proud to be here, to share with you this morning some of my thoughts about the responsibilities of public…”

Our great nation now teeters on the brink of a widening abyss. Without immediate action, we are at genuine risk of civil conflict and losing our precious democracy.

We look on human rights as an ability to live in peace. And to believe that your future will be better than your past might be.

All of us owe them our gratitude and respect.

I fear for our democracy.
