Some have called we rock and roll performers who never retire 'troubadours.' I enjoy this misnomer immensely.

I feel that my role as a former president is probably superior to that of other presidents. Primarily because of the activism and the injection of working at the Carter Center, and in international affairs, and to some degree, domestic affairs, on energy conservation, on environment, and things of that kind. ↗
