Politics: Jimmy Carter thinks Mubarak will leave, Suleiman is more honest

  • If I want to know what is going on in the Middle East, I talk to Suleiman. And as far as I know, he has always told me the truth.
  • Former President Jimmy Carter • Never fearful to weigh in on current events, Carter claimed that he’s had more useful interactions with the newly-appointed Vice President of Egypt, Omar Suleiman, than with his boss, saying that Hosni Mubarak talks “like a politician.” Carter also guessed that Mubarak “will have to leave,” a sentiment that might be a cold comfort for the Egyptians who want neither Mubarak, Suleiman, nor anybody positioned in the current regime to be left in power.  source
