Originally posted by adramforallJimmy Carter works on foreign relations and peace, and also does public speaking with Bill Clinton and a couple other ex-pres here and there. I hear him in the news now and then.
What is Jimmy Carter doing now?
Had to Google Stephen Harper never heard of him 🙂
For a better answer, I guess you'd need to look it up.

You never heard of the prime minister of Canada? Pick up a newspaper once in a while.

Travel abroad for 6 months and you'd have your eyes opened about world opinion of the US and Mr. Bush. Heck, 6 weeks should do it. Maybe even 6 days. Go to the right places and it might only take 6 minutes.

Originally posted by SuzianneBetter check my profile Phoenix girl. Want to compare travel to other countries now. I've lived in Europe for nine years not mention a few other places. I'll let your worry about world opinion because I don't. The world has hated the US for years.
