From the Paper:

"James Earl "Jimmy" Carter was the thirty-ninth President of the United States from 1977 to 1981. Before becoming president, he was the Governor of Georgia, and served two terms at the senate. He was regarded as an outcast to traditional party politics. The start of his presidency was marked by caution, conservatism, frustrations, and disappointments. Economic stagnation together with inflation, the energy crisis, the war in Afghanistan, and the Iran hostage crisis were the events that besieged his presidency."
