Next week is our presidential election, so I thought it appropriate today to hear from one of our former presidents.
I first met Jimmy Carter in 1987, and interviewed him several times over the years, including this conversation, from 1993.
Mr. Carter had just written a book for young people, about peace, and war. I brought both of my daughters, ages 11 and 13, with me that day to meet our 39th president.
