fighting for something you believe in\u00e2\u20ac\u201deven if it means

I think of Jimmy Carter. After he lost the election to Ronald
Reagan, Carter came to see me in my office. He told me he
was seeking contributions to the Jimmy Carter Library. I
asked how much he had in mind. And he said,
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Donald, I
would be very appreciative if you contributed five million
dollars.
\u00e2\u20ac\u009d
I was dumbfounded. I didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t even answer him.
But that experience also taught me something. Until then,
I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d never understood how Jimmy Carter became president.
The answer is that as poorly qualified as he was for the job,
Jimmy Carter had the nerve, the guts, the balls, to ask for
something extraordinary. That ability above all helped him get
elected president. But then, of course, the American people
caught on pretty quickly that Carter couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t do the job, and
he lost in a landslide when he ran for reelection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dumbfounded don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t even answer<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ronald Reagan is another example. He is so smooth and so
effective a performer that he completely won over the
American people. Only now, nearly seven years later, are
people beginning to question whether there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s anything
beneath that smile.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
