James Carter
Hello, my name is James Earl Carter, Jr. As you may or may not know, I was the president of the United States for one term (four years). I like to think those four years of presidency; I accomplished a great deal of things that may have affected your life. However, I'll just let you decide whether or not I made an impact on the lives if citizens by reading what I have to say about what I accomplished in my career. I hope that you can learn something from what I have to tell you.I, James Earl Carter (better known as Jimmy Carter) was born on October 1st, 1924 in Plains, Georgia. In the early years before I was president, I was a well-known peanut farmer who loved to dream and talk of politics and my devotion to the Baptist faith. I graduated from the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland in 1946 and Married Rosalyn Smith whom I had four children with. There were three boys (John William, James Earl III, Donnell Jeffery) and one girl (Amy Lynn). In 1971 I got my first real government-related job. I became the 76th governor of Georgia. While I was in office as the governor, my fellow governors from the surrounding states recommended me to be chairman of the Southern Regional Educational Board, the Appalachian Regional Comm
One of my main goals as President of the United States was to make all people equal. I wanted to promote human rights however I could and as often as possible. I feel that I did a good job doing so. I went to numerous other countries and helped with fundraisers and visited the people speaking of natural rights. I also made sure that our country donated money to other organizations. I like to say that my main focus as president of the United States didn't just focus on out country. To me...that would be selfish. In my opinion, our country was fine, of course we had racism and prejudice people, but the rest of the world wasn't fine. If we didn't put a stop to what was going on in the rest pf the world it would probably eventually spread to the United States and affected us greatly. I tried my hardest to do the best that I could at being president and I feel that I accomplished quite a few things. I don't want to sound like I like to boast, but I 'm going to tell you some important things that were done while I served in office. The last of the most important foreign policy treaties that I signed was the ' Joint Communique on the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations Between the United States of America and the People's Republic of China.' In this document the United States recognized the Republic of China as the main government of China. It also said that Taiwan was part of China. We agreed to maintain cultural, commercial, and other unofficial relations with the people of Taiwan. Therefore, relations between the United States and China were normalized. I signed this treaty on January 1st, 1979. Another document that I was a part of was the Salt II Treaty with the Soviet Union. There was conflict between the United States of America and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics over the limitation of strategic defense arms. We were worried about nuclear weapons and such being tied in and causing devastating things to happen. On June 18th, 1979, I signed this treaty in Vienna.
