Former President Jimmy Carter in a new interview said he regrets putting an end to playing “Hail to the Chief” whenever the president enters the room.
“I went too far in — because I did — I did away with all the ruffles and flourishes and that sort of thing for a little while. But it was so unpopular with the American public — because they wanted to show reverence to the president that I undid it,” Carter told MSNBC’s Chris Matthews in a new interview on Sunday.
The conversation with Carter, 94, is part of an MSNBC special, “Headliners,” featuring Carter, who is the oldest living ex-U.S. president.

Why? Now you can see he was no chief I bought my house in his tenure interest rates were over 10%. He almost knew less than Obama.
Thats wonderful.
Hashem let him live to the age he is just for that. Helpful. Will he make another year to tell us he was an antisemite? Curious. L-rd bless.
Jimmy Carter is one of those individuals you wish wasn’t zocheh to arichas yamim.
Correction: He’s the second oldest living ex-U.S. president Bush 41 is older than him
Nonstarter Carter
Fail to the chief, the one who left our land in shambles
Attacked by a mad bunny during his countryside rambles
The worst president in the history of our nation
Thanks to Jimmy we all learned the word: “Stagflation”
From the Ayatollahs with abuse we were showered
Still, fighting back wasn’t permitted by that coward
B”H after four years he was sent back to peanut farming
At long, long last the U.S.A. he wasn’t harming
Jimmy Carter doesn’t have an exceptional longevity: he is a reptile and his species live longer than humans.
