Carter entered the business world at the same time, but also officially entered the political world, in 1962 became the Senate of Georgia, in 1970 became the governor of the state, when he was supported for eliminating local racial discrimination, Carter is a three-dimensional person, unlike most politicians in the United States, he is upright, kind, dedicated to serving the people, he also successfully won the support of the people, in 1974, the 50-year-old Carter announced his candidacy for president, compared with the current president, Carter ran for president at a very young age.

However, it was always rejected, but Carter could not see a patient's request and finally agreed to Pahlavi's request.
