and former presidents and the current president there, celebrating the life rrof jimmy carter, who in many ways, as joe biden himself said today, never let the tides of politics direct him from his mission to serve and as you look at the plane that will carry jimmy carter's remains back to plains, georgia. it will stop at fort benning there, in georgia, before returning to plains, maranatha baptist church is where a private service will take place later today. that is a place where jimmy carter, chris, as we sort of spoke about the lifetime of service, it's a place where he concluded each lesson with a challenge, basically, to all of those in attendance, as he taught sunday school there, to do one good thing for one person, as the church itself says, whether making the time to call a friend who was sad or lonely, mowing the lawn for an elderly community member, or simply baking a cake for a neighbor, through one simple gesture of love, president carter suggest the, we can change the world. i think that was the message in part of what joe biden was trying to say. here's part of what joe biden said about

jimmy carter's case and joe biden's not the case and president-elect trump coming back for a second term bret: as you look at that image of the living presidents, you know, these are moments that only happen every so often as you mentioned, 2018 the last time. and i think one of the things about carter's legacy. we can talk about all the policies and criticism, but there was also this humility, this sense after watergate and vietnam that that's what the country wanted. he was not afraid to talk about his faith. and he was a very religious man. evangelical baptist. he talked about being a born again christian on the campaign trail and i think you will hear a lot of that in this service today. looking back at how solid a religious man he was. he wasn't afraid to talk about it. >> bill: bret, when you look at the presidents assembled here, donald trump, the cameras were on him almost exclusively from every network as he entered church a moment ago. and dana and i were talking about how much he and barack obama had to talk about and maybe we need to get a good lip reader in here to tell us w

. >> but he said his gut told him that carter had the right vision to be president. >> and, of course, that was a good bet for joe biden. when jimmy carter won the presidency in 1976. but again, in the years that passed, their relationship became much more personal. president biden, the day that jimmy carter died, spoke about the fact that the carters, both jimmy and rosalynn, helped console the bidens when, uh, when beau biden died of breast cancer, and then when jimmy carter dealt with, i mean, brain cancer, of course. and when jimmy carter had his cancer diagnosis, the bidens also returned that favor. and and so it's become a friendship, a almost, um, a family that they've, uh, kind of formed over the years, over the decades, quite honestly. and i'm sure president biden, he hasn't talked as much about that recently, but i'm sure there's a lot he's going to learn and take from jimmy carter about what graceful post-presidency can look like. >> and of course, we'll hear some of those personal stories when the president eulogizes the late president carter on thursday. my thanks to all of you. and stay with cnn. ou

carter administration. we only got to 9.1% under joe biden. nflation is a killer politically, particularly for democratic presidents, dan. what about you? what do you think about trying to put the big picture on the carter legacy and what he meant as a president? >> well, i would say two things. one very specific that we haven't mentioned is the camp david accords. that was the peace accord between israel and egypt. that was an extraordinary achievement. and let us say that to this day egypt and israel have coexisted. it's been an uneasy go 2006, but nonetheless -- paul: how many peace peace in the middle east lasts this long in peace deals. >> that's right. carter put a lot of effort into that, and that needs to be acknowledged, for sure. the other point i think i would make is that jimmy carter was capable of mid-course directions. one was one mary just mentioned. he finally decided inflation if had gotten out of hand, he had to do something about it, and he called in the then-new york fed chairman paul volcker who told him, this is not going

and then of course there is that state funeral on thursday when we will hear president joe biden eulogized jimmy carter as well as others at the national cathedral. i got the opportunity to interview president carter in 2018, and one of the things i did want to ask him about at the time was what he wanted his legacy to be. how do you want to be remembered? >> well, for my family i hope i can be remembered as a great grandfather had a good grandfather and a good father. to be remembered as a good husband. but in politics, as a champion of peace and human rights. i was lucky enough to keep our country at peace for the four years i served. and we were i think looked upon as a champion of human rights. that's the two things i guess politically speaking i am proud of. >> norah: john dickerson, notable to hear him mention things that did not necessarily include his time as president. >> john: that's right. he saw his life in this sort of much larger terms and keeping faith with his faith and so he had this larger view. i was thinking as you were talking about habitat for humanity, where jimmy carter spent so

senator, joe biden, elected to the senate in 1972. he endorsed jimmy carter with some risk.jimmy carter was not the leading candidate when he did so, and he said jimmy carter's friendship taught me and through his life taught me that strength of character is more than title or power, that we hold it to strength to understand that everyone should be treated with dignity and respect. >> and the fact that you have an 82 year old president talking about his own endorsement in 1972 really speaks to the endurance and the length of both of their careers. and it makes me think of this line that i will never forget from stuart eizenstat, who also spoke here. and he was a longtime aide to from georgia and then into the white house to jimmy carter. and what ambassador eizenstat said was, it's not the number of years they served, but the duration of their accomplishments. speaking of presidents. and so here you have jimmy carter being eulogized, being celebrated, even though he was a one term president. he obviously had so many years, a half a century afterwards of accomplishments and s

joe biden will deliver the eulogy. jimmy carter's grandson has been talking about his grandfather, his service in the navy, and how he often made it back to plains in georgia, where he would teach sunday school something he did. he pointed out from the 2nd world war all the way through to cool, but eventually stopping just a couple of years before his death. that was important to him. his roots, his georgia route squared important. but this is a place where the presidents come come on, one of their own. it is a very small, very exclusive club. and here we have seen bill clinton, george w bush, a brock obama, donald trump. and interestingly enough, as donald trump entered the cathedral, and this is really more about american politics, there was a handshake between mike pins and donald trump. we know the 2 have not got on since january the 6, 4 years ago. and what happened then, but that was a moment that will be recorded as something that came out of the, the cost of funeral it to me costs, at least behind a mix legacy and office. he was beset by a number of problems including high infl

tribute from the current president of the united states to a former president, his dear friend jimmy carter. joe biden was the first sitting democratic senator to endorse jimmy carter in the race in 76. he said to the young people out there listening to anyone listening in search of purpose, he said, study jimmy carter's example. he said many people believe that jimmy carter is of a bygone era. but he said, actually, jimmy carter in many ways saw the future was ahead of his time in so many ways. we have talked about it on the air here this morning. the power of this image right here, the president, the first lady. and former presidents and first ladies gathered from both parties to honor the 39th president, who served one term, was defeated by ronald reagan. and now president biden after having served one term, president elect donald trump returning to the white house. polarizing times, but proof that in these moments, a country can come together and that the leaders in that cathedral there today are determined to send a message that there is common ground and common good. and we've heard a lot

[laughter] kudos to president carter! and it seemed pretty uncomfortable that they all had to sit next to donald trump. just think about the history there. trump tried to put her in prison... accused him of murder... said he was a secret muslim founder of isis... said she was pretending to be black... ended his entire family dynasty... almost got him murdered... tried to overthrow his presidency... and paid off a porn star behind her back.
