Jimmy Carter - 39th US President

 

 

 

 

Jimmy (James Earl) Carter Jr. was born on October 1, 1924. He is an American politician and humanitarian who served as the 39th president of the United States from 1977 to 1981. A member of the Democratic Party, he was the 76th governor of Georgia from 1971 to 1975, and a Georgia state senator from 1963 to 1967. At age 99, Carter is the oldest living former U.S. president and the longest-lived president in U.S. history.

Carter was born and raised in Plains, Georgia. He graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1946 and joined the U.S. Navy's submarine service. Carter returned home after his military service and revived his family's peanut-growing business. Opposing racial segregation, Carter supported the growing civil rights movement, and became an activist within the Democratic Party. He served in the Georgia State Senate from 1963 to 1967 and then as governor of Georgia from 1971 to 1975. As a dark-horse candidate not well known outside Georgia, Carter won the Democratic nomination and narrowly defeated the incumbent Republican Party president Gerald Ford in the 1976 presidential election.

Carter pardoned all Vietnam War draft evaders on his second day in office. He created a national energy policy that included conservation, price control, and new technology. Carter successfully pursued the Camp David Accords, the Panama Canal Treaties, and the second round of Strategic Arms Limitation Talks. He also confronted stagflation. His administration established the U.S. Department of Energy and the Department of Education. The end of his presidency was marked by the Iran hostage crisis, an energy crisis, the Three Mile Island accident, the Nicaraguan Revolution, and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. In response to the invasion, Carter escalated the Cold War by ending détente, imposing a grain embargo against the Soviets, enunciating the Carter Doctrine, and leading the multinational boycott of the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow. He lost the 1980 presidential election in a landslide to Ronald Reagan, the Republican nominee.

After leaving the presidency, Carter established the Carter Center to promote and expand human rights; in 2002 he received a Nobel Peace Prize for his work related to it. He traveled extensively to conduct peace negotiations, monitor elections, and further the eradication of infectious diseases. Carter is a key figure in the nonprofit housing organization Habitat for Humanity. He has also written numerous books, ranging from political memoirs to poetry, while continuing to comment on global affairs, including two books on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, in which Carter criticizes Israel's treatment of Palestinians as apartheid. Polls of historians and political scientists generally rank Carter as a below-average president, though scholars and the public more favorably view his post-presidency, the longest in U.S. history.

 

  

 

 

WHO ARE THE MOST POPULAR?

 

Who are the most popular United States presidents, the best known and most hated world leaders from the USA. And how many have been assassinated, or the subject of shooting attempts. The most famous of which must surely be a toss up between Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy in 1963.

 

Then, who is the best looking, most charismatic, handsome and sexiest, to garner voter appeal. And that may include manner of speaking as well as athletic physique. We'd vote for Arnold Schwarzenegger in a flash, and he did make it to Governor of California. Probably one of the most charismatic Presidents was Barack Obama, he could talk the hind leg off a Donkey. Why Henry Cavill does not run for President, beats us. He'd do well, so long as he joins the right party and their politics work. And he wears body armour in case of slip ups by his administration.

 

Alternatively, politicians could start telling the truth. It could be law that politicians who lie will be prosecuted for fraud. How about lie detectors live during political rallies. So the public can see if they are telling the truth when asked certain baseline questions. It might save a few bullets in the long run.

Four American Presidents have been assassinated so far, with two more shot. The electorate voting with a rifle or pistol. Maybe. Except the shooting of Ronald Reagan was due to the shooter, John Warnock Hinckley Jr., being infatuated with the actress Jodie Foster. Nothing at all to do with politics, apparently.

 

In 1968 Senator Robert F. Kennedy was shot at the Ambassador Hotel. Like his brothers John F. Kennedy and Ted Kennedy, he was a prominent member of the Democratic Party and is an icon of modern American liberalism. He was assassinated as he was running for president, much the same as Donald Trump being shot in 2024.

 

Russian President Vladimir Putin has also been targeted, also his nemesis Volodymyr Zelenskyy. As was Sir Winston Churchill, and Adolf Hitler in World War Two. But these were not members of the public, these appear to have been military operations.

In many countries citizens have been far from satisfied with the lackluster performances of their elected leaders. The latest being the landslide victory of the British Labour party ousting the incompetent Conservative self-servers. According to many media reports. In the UK there is no right to bear arms. Meaning firearms are harder to source. Leaving the discontented with rotten eggs, or in days of old, bows and arrows (Robin Hood). Even so, police in the United Kingdom have armed response units. One of which shot a Brazilian student, Jean Charles de Menezes in 2005, in London, and another shot James Ashley while he was naked in St Leonards, Sussex in 1998.

 

With local authority corruption at high levels in Britain, the nation waits to see how Kier Starmer and his administration copes. So far in 2024 he has leapt into action with a proposed 35 Bills heading to Parliament. Many of which are to protect the less well off in society. With plans to create a new national energy grid, to get away from reliance on fossil fuels. We hope the PM's advisors have the vision to incorporate hydrogen in their plans. We also hope that affordable/sustainable housing gets a look in, perhaps as zero carbon timber framed flat-packs. Other issues include over development of conventional housing estates without improving the roadways leading to recurring potholes. And a water neutral and sewage system, to stop the at present dumping of raw waste into the sea. Prosecutions of water companies and large fines with improvement Order/Notices should do the trick. The lack of suitable water treatment and road infrastructure should be material planning considerations. Total blockers to development, unless the infrastructure improvements are put in place well ahead of the start of development, by way of a 106 Agreement. Proposed new development should not harm heritage assets, associated views, or pollute wetlands, SSSIs and Ramsar sites.

 

To help build a sustainable and circular economy, both the UK and US have serious creative talent in the film and music industries, a unique export to the rest of the world - as great movies and recording artists. This is termed Orange Growth. As manufacturing is on the decline, IP and green tourism (hydrogen powered aircraft, ferries, river cruises) could perhaps fill that void, helping to balance trade deficits.

THE TELEGRAPH 15 JULY 2024 - WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF TRUMP HAD BEEN ASSASSINATED?

“I’m supposed to be dead,” said Donald Trump, and it’s incredible how close he came. The bullet fired by Thomas Matthew Crooks from a roof in Pennsylvania grazed the former president’s ear. Video suggests he was saved by a head tilt seconds before.

America, warn pundits, was “one inch away from civil war”. Call this distasteful speculation if you wish, but it’s not hyperbolic. It summarises the mood on the ground and the popular memory of past catastrophes.

When people say “civil war”, they don’t mean the 1860s, when North vs South had alternative governments and armies of thousands, but rather the 1960s – when civil unrest was triggered by assassinations and armed extremists lurked in the shadows.
Riots in the wake of the shooting of Martin Luther King Jnr, in April 1968, left 43 dead, 3,500 injured and 27,000 arrested. Liberals demanded reform; conservatives, law and order.

Trump and Biden are old enough to remember those days, and their world-views are shaped by them. Mr Biden sees himself as the heir to Bobby Kennedy, himself assassinated in June 1968. Trump is likened to Richard Nixon.

Today, if either man were to die, or be killed, prior to their formal nomination at a convention, their delegates would be free to pick an alternative via a series of floor votes. Were tragedy to strike after the convention, the nominee would likely be chosen by party officials (with no guarantee that the vice presidential candidate would fill the gap).

The Democrats last held such a brokered convention in 1968, and it descended into a battle between protesters and cops. Institutional memory of that fateful year is precisely why the current Democrat elite is reluctant to drop Mr Biden, to take us back to an age of anarchic politics, mob rule and lone shooters.

Outside of a coal mine, the presidency has proved to be the most dangerous job in US history. Four presidents have been murdered; there were two attempts to kill Gerald Ford alone (heaven knows why). Though the culprits have often been unhinged – Reagan’s would-be assassin wanted to impress Jodie Foster – partisanship provides motive. Lincoln was shot by a confederate actor; William McKinley by an anarchist at a time when that movement was as lethal as al-Qaeda .

Conspiracy theories always follow.

Supporters of Huey Long, a Trump-like populist murdered by a man with a personal grudge in 1935, dubbed their opponents the “Assassination Party”.

The precise effect of political violence depends upon the psychology of society at the time it occurs. By 1981, America wanted to move on from the radicalism of ’68, and Congress became more determinedly collegial. Reagan, recovering in hospital, was visited by Tip O’Neill, the Democrat speaker of the House – and in the most extraordinary scene, Tip fell to his knees in prayer and kissed Ronald on the forehead – rivals, yes, but also friends.

In 2024, partisanship is back in style. Both sides believe the other threatens their liberty, or that they would use unconstitutional means to stay in power.

Violence percolates to the extremes. In 2011, Democrat Gabby Giffords was shot by a constituent; in 2017, Republican Steve Scalise was shot by a Bernie Sanders supporter at a baseball game. White supremacists marched at Charlottesville in 2017 and riots followed the murder of George Floyd in 2020. Then there was Jan 6 2021 and the storming of the Capitol.

Madness is stoked by disinformation: conspiracy theories around the Trump shooting now rival JFK or the Moon landings. Some say the Trump shooting was staged by the candidate himself. Others say the security was deliberately cut back to put him at risk – or the ability of the shooter to get so close indicates an inside job. Why, ask chauvinists, was he protected by a detail of women who looked overweight and unable to holster a gun?

A more compelling story is that the Democrats effectively put a target on Trump’s back by demonising him. “Joe Biden sent the orders,” Representative Mike Collins posted on X – although Trump has maligned his opponents plenty, too, and the political sympathies of the shooter remain unclear.

“Democrats and their allies in the media have recklessly stoked fears,” opined Senator Tim Scott. “Their inflammatory rhetoric puts lives at risk.” If what he says is true – and if Trump had been killed – it’s easy to see how some of his supporters would feel justified in turning to violence.

Imagine a series of Jan 6-ers, a trail of sporadic mob violence targeting officials, journalists, election stations and perhaps the conventions. Again, it’s happened before. The 1995 Oklahoma bombing was carried out by a far-Right activist who believed the US government was at war with its own citizens. A revolutionary situation develops when people think the state is against them and cannot be changed through the ballot box, and the killing of a presidential candidate would, to those of extremist temperament, be final proof.

Oklahoma was inspired by the federal siege at a religious compound in Waco in 1993 – and Trump chose to hold a 2024 rally at Waco airport. He defended the January 6-ers and attacked the “abuses of power” that made this one of the most “corrupt, depraved chapters in all of American history”.

In short, Trump’s death would have pushed his country even further down a road it was already going. Many Americans hope that, having glimpsed over the cliff edge into disorder, people will now step back. 

The early signs are encouraging. Condemnation of the shooting and sympathy for the Trump family has been universal. Nikki Haley, his rival in the primaries, has agreed to speak at the Republican convention. And Trump revealed that though his original speech attacking Mr Biden was scheduled to be another “humdinger”, he has since rewritten it with a view to national reconciliation.

“It is a chance to bring the country together,” he said. “I was given that chance.”

"We have gold because we cannot trust governments," President Herbert Hoover famously said in 1933 in his statement to Franklin D. Roosevelt. The Emergency Banking Act, forced all Americans to convert their gold coins, bullion, and certificates into U.S. dollars, to stop the outflow of gold reserves during the Great Depression. The writing was on the wall, but nobody could read it.
