There’s a certain symmetry between the recent passing of former President Jimmy Carter and the impending departure of current President Joe Biden from the White House. Carter was a friend and hero to Biden. He was a fine and decent man; a Naval Academy grad in 1946 who worked on developing our nuclear submarine program and a good ex-president, exemplary in some ways. He built a lot of homes for Habitat for Humanity and taught Sunday School for the good people of Plains, Georgia, for decades.

Some people on the far left think we live in a pure democracy. We don’t. Others think we live in a pure republic. We do not.

I was talking to a dear friend recently who has spent a lifetime in conscientious contemplation of life’s mysteries within the scope of the Christian Gospel. He wanted to talk about the recent revelations about Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson and, of course, Donald Trump. He asked how any Christian could possibly square the circle between personal character and political philosophy when it comes to voting for this or that candidate in a binary sense.

When a prominent person passes away, people write nice syrupy homages titled “Remembering So-and-So.”How do you write such a thing when someone is as unforgettable as Coach Lefty Driesell? It is like he never left. He retired decades ago but it seems like he must have still been coaching somewhere at age 92. The most seasoned of Tobacco Road basketball fans will remember the great Davidson Wildcat teams he brought to the Triangle in the 1960’s.

However, if you are within three years, it's imperative to get started ASAP.
