Anecdote time.

When Carter was elected president in 1976, Elvis Presley called to congratulate him

According to Carter: Elvis was "totally stoned and incoherent"

Despite the bizarre nature of the call, Carter listened patiently, even as Presley rambled on about wanting to work with him and offering to help the country

Carter later shared this story as a testament to his belief in treating everyone with kindness and respect, regardless of the circumstances. Uh'huh
