It's amazing Jimmy Carter, who is about the same age as George H. W. Bush, is in such good shape comparatively speaking.

He doesn't have Parkinson's. They were both in pretty good shape before President Bush was diagnosed with the disease.

Carter has had problems with hemorrhoids ever since he was a submarine officer in WW2, and his family has a history with pancreatic cancer.

I didn't know he had been a submarine officer in World War II. That's fascinating.

Yes, and he loved it so much that I believe he fully intended to have a lifelong career in the U.S. Navy until his father (a peanut farmer) died in 1953.

That's why I said it was so amazing that Carter is in such a good shape as he is given his health history.  At least for now.......
