Holy shnizz wangers I finally found this. I was searching for it two years ago and all I could find were brief two minute clips. Today, on a whim, I decided to search the internet again and finally snagged the whole thing. I have to say, Ive been really surprised how hard it is to find a lot of these speeches and debates. You would think there would have been a central hub for all these long ago online or on RU-vid somewhere. You WOULD think that...but you'd be wrong.

@LeftysLefty 3 года назад

@@theCarbonFreeze I have a very vivid memory of listening to President Carters farewell address - I was working my way through college as a night watchman and heard it on the radio. I remember him making very strong points about energy use, the environment, and about human rights which really stuck with me because those are areas that Republicans do not care about. His words are even more important today 40 years later. I've often talked about it, but I've never met anyone else who actually had seen or heard the speech - it was a great summary of what values define and set off the Democratic Party from the Repubicans - values that are still very much in evidence. The world would be a different place today if he had won in 1980 or if we had listened to him and taken it to heart. Would mam-made climate change have become the problem it did if we had listened to Pres. Carter and taken the environment seriously 40 years ago? I'd long thought this speech was lost in mists of time and was actually delighted to see it pop up on RU-vid - it never occurred to me to find it in here - thanks again for posting this.
