Former President Carter says he will endorse Obama
Breitbart ^ | June 3, 2008

Posted on 06/03/2008 12:09:12 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

ATLANTA (AP) - Former President Carter says he'll endorse Democrat Barack Obama after the polls close on the final primaries. Carter told The Associated Press on Tuesday: "The fact is the Obama people already know they have my vote when the polls close tonight." Carter spoke to the AP after addressing the Georgia World Congress Center.

Carter, a superdelegate, has remained officially neutral in the race but has offered high praise to Obama. Carter has noted that his children, grandchildren and their spouses back the Illinois senator.

South Dakota and Montana hold primaries Tuesday.

He finally wants to be bumped off the top of the “Worst President in History” to the number two spot before he dies...

Heck, Jimmah! Why not see if you can’t get Arafish’s widow to endorse him, too! You only want him in office so that we’ll stop harping on what a complete and utter failure, antisemite and terrorist enabler you are.

Ya know, I’ve disliked Hillary Clinton since just about Day 1 of the 1992 campaign. Lately, though, considering all of the losers and scumbags who have rejected her in favor of Obama, I’m starting to actually think more highly of her. In other words, if Carter et al. don’t like her, maybe she can’t be all bad.

So Carter is endorsing his Clone. What a shocker.

Now that Obama has this cinched, he needs to start looking for a running mate. A guy he can get along with. Someone with experience, but who shares Obamas' views. Someone with stature in the Democratic pantheon. Someone from the South.

Someone eligible to hold the office of the President.

Of course, the only U.S. born folk who are ineligible are the ones who are under 35, and the ones who have served two terms in office...

Obama doesn't know that Carter has jinxed his campaign with his endorsement. LOL Hopefully, by the time he finds out, it will be too late.

The subtext — that Carter is a superdelegate — and the related sidebar — that McGovern has, I think, endorsed Obama — should really seal his victory. [snicker]

Just waiting for Mike Dukakis to chime in with his endorsement!

If Obama can claim the weighty endorsements of such ‘mainstream’ figures as McGovern, Carter, Mondale, Dukakis, and Jon Carry then of course he is a sure winner in November.
