Overview
Jimmy Carter from Plains, Georgia, a graduate of the Naval Academy, was President for one term. A peanut farmer when he became governor of Georgia, he promoted racial integration during his terms in the state house as well as in the White House. Carter's foreign policy introduced the concept of human rights around the world, and he signed the SALT treaty with the Soviet Union, reducing the numbers of nuclear weapons. Although Carter made progress towards peace between Arabs and Israelis in the Middle East, his administration was undone by the taking of American hostages in Iran. As an ex-president, Carter continues to be active promoting peace internationally.
