(2008-04-23) — In the wake of Sen. Hillary Clinton’s primary victory in Pennsylvania Tuesday, Nobel laureate Jimmy Carter today announced he would interrupt his work on the Gaza Strip branch of the Carter Library to meet with Mrs. Clinton and rival Sen. Barack Obama to negotiate a cease fire in the battle that threatens to destroy the Democrat party.

The former U.S. president, fresh off one-party talks with the exiled leader of Hamas during which Mr. Carter succeeded in securing a hug from the terror group leader, said he’ll aim to get Sen. Clinton to halt her attacks on Sen. Obama in exchange for a pledge from Sen. Obama to disown his pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, and his indicted real estate partner, Tony Rezko, as well as his colleague, terror group founder William Ayers, and his maternal grandmother, “who is a typical white person.”

“I believe you can address any problem through talking,” said Mr. Carter, “as long as you’re willing to set aside what you know about people’s motives, their values, their goals and their historical patterns of behavior. I envision our party convention as a win-win — with two Democrat nominees, walking side by side, in peace and mutual respect — and I think to myself, what a wonderful world.”
