Subject: RE: BS: Lucky to have Jimmy Carter
Recently Carter was asked if there was something he still would want to finish in the time he has remaining. He quickly answered 'peace in the Middle East and the end of the Guinea Wirm plague'. When he began his campaign there were 2 and a half million victims of the worm. Today there are only 6. Only smallpox was the only other plague eradicated. source: Rachael Maddow
