Michael Posner, a human rights adviser to the late President Jimmy Carter in his post-presidency years, recently spoke to CNN about the current state of politics and the need for principled government advocacy. Posner highlighted Carter's approach of 'practical idealism' in diplomacy, emphasizing the importance of mixing personal values and religious faith in governance.
Posner expressed concern about the lack of principled government advocacy in today's politics, noting that such values are in short supply. He urged for a reflection on Carter's legacy and the need to reclaim those values in modern governance.
