Muda69 Posted December 29, 2024 Author Posted December 29, 2024 Jimmy Carter dead at 100: https://apnews.com/article/jimmy-carter-dead-latest-66b988ca038d9d8e738a5984ed96c076 Quote Former President Jimmy Carter has died at the age of 100. The 39th president of the United States was a Georgia peanut farmer who sought to restore trust in government when he assumed the presidency in 1977 and then built a reputation for tireless work as a humanitarian. He earned a Nobel Peace Prize in 2002. He died Sunday, more than a year after entering hospice care, at his home in Plains, Georgia. At age 52, Carter was sworn in as president on Jan. 20, 1977, after defeating President Gerald R. Ford in the 1976 general election. Carter left office on Jan. 20, 1981, following his 1980 general election loss to Ronald Reagan. .. Truly an American Icon, possibly more famous for his charitable works like Habitat for Humanity than for his Presidency. He will be missed. 1
