Other than Barack Obama, only four living people know firsthand the rigors of the presidency — and three of them have refused to RSVP to Donald Trump’s inauguration.
The peaceful transfer of power between presidents is one of the most profound and important aspects of American democracy. At the outset of our nation’s history, it was what set us apart from the monarchies of Europe. While other nations have since adopted America’s democratic system, ours remains the gold standard by which all others are judged. No other country has so successfully respected the tradition of free and fair elections and the personal willingness to give up power.

All of the other are part of new,world,order
Nobody cares.
No ‘bama?
DIDNT NEED THEM TO GET ELECTED WHY WOULD HE NEED THEM NOW
He may be the only President who didn’t steal from us
Presidentd that are not attending were just as chicken$#%&!@*loosers as Obama, We love Trump. They are pissed because one of the good old boys/girl didn’t get in to continue ripping off the country.
By choosing not to attend, they set a shameful example to others.
Carter is the only true gentlemen among the group
And we found out now that 911 was an inside job I heard it before but I never believed it, look good at those four men in this picture and know they all were behind it! Murderers of all our people and the bastards still walk and live free. Rudy Giuliani spilled the beans today about that and the pedophilia and it is all true and now Rudy’s life is in grave danger! We have to demand that they all be arrested!
Good the others are traitors and morons
