I don't have any mana but I think this should be higher.

me: Suggest some republican congressmen or senators who have been around since the Carter Administration and could give a eulogy at Carter's funeral

ChatGPT:

Finding a current Republican congressman or senator who has been in office continuously since the Carter Administration is challenging, as few have served that long. However, there are some who began their political careers around that time or who have significant political experience and might be appropriate choices. Here are a few potential candidates:

1. Chuck Grassley - Senator from Iowa. Grassley has been serving in the U.S. Senate since 1981 and was a member of the House of Representatives from 1975 to 1981, overlapping with the Carter Administration.

2. Mitch McConnell - Senator from Kentucky. McConnell has been serving in the U.S. Senate since 1985 and has been a prominent Republican leader for many years.

3. Orrin Hatch - Former Senator from Utah. Hatch served from 1977 to 2019 and had a long career in the Senate during and after the Carter Administration. Although retired, he remains a significant figure in Republican politics. (Note: Orrin Hatch passed away in April 2022.)

4. Hal Rogers - Congressman from Kentucky. Rogers has been serving in the House of Representatives since 1981 and has extensive experience in Congress.

5. Richard Shelby - Former Senator from Alabama. Shelby served in the U.S. Senate from 1987 to 2023 and in the House from 1979 to 1987, starting during the Carter years. He was initially elected as a Democrat but switched to the Republican Party in 1994. (Note: Richard Shelby retired in 2023.)

These individuals have significant experience and could be considered appropriate choices to give a eulogy for a figure like Jimmy Carter.

chatGPT also suggested carter was friendly with Romney, Schwarzenegger, and James A. Baker III

Important that this has to happen during the president official state funeral. For example, if they host funeral service in Atlanta and D.C., but only the D.C. is the state funeral, only D.C. Will count.

shouldn't the choice between a/an depend on the first syllable of the subsequent word, not the letter? An eulogy just sounds weird.

President Biden says Jimmy Carter asked him to give his eulogy

The president made the remarks to attendees at a fundraiser in California, after which he added, “Excuse me, I shouldn’t say that.” Carter, 98, has been in hospice care since last month.

Biden’s not a Republican, obviously, so I’m leaning towards the outcome being NO.

@nottelling2ccc multiple people delivered eulogies in the past state funerals I saw. Both Bush and Obama were forced to say good things about their adversary John McCain in his state funeral.
