The 39th US president rated one of the most intelligent

Rosalynn and I, over our lives, have learned that silence is violence.

 A comment made by Jimmy Carter after the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis in May.

Jonathan Alter in his newly published book 'His Very Best' argues that Jimmy Carter was one of the most intelligent presidents the United States ever had.

In the book he charts Carter's life, makes some interesting comments on his days as governor in Georgia and how his views on segregation changed over the years.

Because of his extraordinary work in Africa it's now common for parents to call their children after the 39th US president.
