Some presidents are versatile, maintaining their usual style even after leaving office, and have been active on social media for a long time. Trump is such a person, and some presidents, after retiring to obscurity, are hardly active in the front line of the construction site.
During his tenure, he was called "the worst president" by the American people. During his tenure, he passed away like a meteor, and after leaving office, he looked around at the age of 95, and he was the thirty-ninth president of the United States, Jimmy Carter.
Jimmy Carter was born in the United States in the mid-1920s. At the age of 17, he entered Southwestern University in Georgia, and at the age of 19, he went to the Polytechnic Institute and the Naval Officer School. Jimmy Carter's extraordinary life began here.
Three years later, Carter officially entered service with the U.S. Navy. During his service, Jimmy Carter excelled in becoming the Navy's nuclear reactor expert at the time. In 1953, his father died, and Carter had to return to inherit the family business, by which time he was already in a high position as a captain in the Navy.
Carter's father was a peanut farmer, and the nature he left Carter with was agriculture and commerce. Later, with its brilliant mind. Successfully doubled production, and he officially joined the ranks of millionaires.
Before his father's death, he also served as a member of the state legislature, which also prompted Carter's political path. In the early 1960s, Carter officially embarked on the political path as a senator in his state.
In the 1970s, he was elected governor of his state, and because he eliminated racial discrimination in the state, he was particularly loved among all the governors of the South. It also laid a solid foundation for Carter's campaign for president.
In 1974. At that time, Carter chose to compete with Ford for the presidency at that time, and with a good image of the people, Carter finally defeated Ford at that time with a narrow vote and became the 39th president of the United States.
"A country has authority and influence not because of its terrible military might, but because of its morality." This quote is from Our Endangered Values, a book Carter wrote in 2007.
From this sentence, we can see what kind of person Carter really is. From the beginning of his tenure, Carter struggled to maintain a "people-friendly" image, advocating peace, and never launched a foreign war during his tenure.
In terms of diplomacy, first of all, a treaty was signed with Panama. This allows it to maintain a neutral position in the canal. At the same time, as president of the United States, he was the first president to recognize the international status of the People's Republic of China. It can be said that he single-handedly promoted Sino-US diplomacy.
Carter and his partner
In order to prevent the war-torn relations between Israel and Egypt, he specifically intervened to mediate and return the Sinai Peninsula, which Israel had occupied, to Egypt. It also urged the two sides to sign friendly and good-neighbourly relations to bring the two countries to an end to the state of war and to use this agreement to allow the two sides to establish diplomatic relations.
In order to maintain balance with the Soviet Union, which was also a great power at that time, a strategic launch system for nuclear weapons was also signed with it. In order to uphold his own philosophy, in dealing with conflicts, Carter is also based on "Huairou". In the face of the Crisis in Haiti, Carter still did not forget to negotiate, and eventually avoided war.
During his tenure, Carter advocated energy conservation more than once. This energy policy may not resonate with people at the time, but if it is placed now, it can definitely arouse far-reaching thinking in many countries.
It can be said that after Carter took office, he ran towards the purpose of peace. However, at that time, he made the most serious mistakes. Personally plunging a "knife" into his heart also made him lose the possibility of re-election as president.
This knife is Pahlavi. As the king of Iran, Pahlavi went into exile after being overthrown by the new Iranian government, and then became seriously ill and had to choose to contact the United States. At first, he requested to travel to the United States for treatment. However, at that time, in order to establish good relations with Iran's New Deal, the United States was already busy, where there was a thought of worrying about others.
Fast forward, and nearly ten months later, Carter began to be overwhelmed and approved Pahlavi's entry for medical treatment. Since ancient times, the winner is the king, the loser is the coward, and iran, which has overthrown the old dynasty with great difficulty, how can it watch the fleeing king live in peace and security.
Carter's greatest pain
In order to demonstrate to the United States and hand over the hidden king, the Iranian side began to hold spontaneous marches and temporarily detained the American diplomatic ambassador. At this time, Carter still followed the old way of negotiating with him, but the severity of the situation this time was far beyond his imagination.
Instead of rescuing the detained U.S. ambassador, his negotiations failed overnight, and Carter became the "most failed president" in U.S. history.
In the 1980s, Carter stepped down. After carrying the insult, he did not think about living in peace in his old age, but preached for peace in various places. Carter was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 and the World Civilization Prize in 2016.
The awards show his extraordinary, even though he is now 97 years old, he still insists on being on the front line of volunteering. Building cold-proof harbors for those who are homeless has been at work for 39 years.
Moreover, he also has many hidden identities. For example, the "cancer" challenger, the longest-lived outgoing US president, the most critical of the us presidents, sometimes his kind face, it is very easy to forget that he was once a US president.
Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter
Former U.S. President Carter, who is nearly 100 years old, has not retired, and now he still works his rarest carpentry on the construction site, and he enjoys it. During his term, he was not a "failed president." In fact, it is not too important, as long as you are safe and happy.
Putting that aside, he is definitely a very charismatic person. Okay, that's it for today, I don't know what you think about this president? Feel free to leave a comment under the comments section and we'll see you next time!
