Jimmy Carter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In 1994, Carter went to North Korea at the behest of President Clinton during a period of rising tensions on the Korean Peninsula that were caused by North Korea's expulsion of investigators from the International Atomic Energy Agency and that country's threat to begin processing spent nuclear fuel. Carter continued his predecessors' policies of imposing sanctions on Rhodesia, and, after Bishop Abel Muzorewa was elected Prime Minister, protested that the Marxists Robert Mugabe and Joshua Nkomo were excluded from the elections. Carter did not want to see a Republican as the governor of his state, and in turn dropped out of the race for Congress and joined the race to become Governor. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Jimmy_Carter   (6575 words)

Character Above All: James Carter Essay Carter was elected in the backwash of a moral crisis, but the biggest problems he faced as President, especially in the domestic arena, were not primarily moral problems. And if Carter had just come home and issued a statement saying he was glad to have been of service to President Clinton and the country and had then gone back to Georgia and kept quiet for a while, he now would be a universally recognized and celebrated hero. If the overriding problem facing America in the late seventies had been racial segregation, for instance, or the Vietnam War, Carter would have known how to rise to the occasion because he knew how to do what was right--even when the political cost was high. www.pbs.org /newshour/character/essays/carter.html   (1344 words)

American Experience Jimmy Carter People & Events Carter also ran a tough populist campaign against the liberal, urbane Sanders, whom he called "Cufflinks Carl." "He wanted to appeal to the large middle class, blue collar type, predominantly white, and most of these people are going to be segregationists," says historian E. Stanly Godbold. His father, Earl Carter, was a successful farmer, and the unquestioned authority to his children and the sharecropping laborers who worked his land. But Carter's ambition soon surfaced again, and on his 38th birthday in 1962 he announced to a surprised Rosalynn that he planned to run for a seat in the state senate, a position Earl Carter had held briefly before his death. www.pbs.org /wgbh/amex/carter/peopleevents/p_jcarter.html   (2295 words)

Betty Carter Page in Fuller Up, The Dead Musicians Directory Betty Carter, 68, one of the great jazz singers, a link with the legends of an earlier age and an indomitable performer who was dedicated to creating her own improvisational style and to training the young, died of pancreatic cancer Sept. 26 at her home in New York. During the '80s, Carter continued to perform in clubs in New York and London, occasionally working with large orchestras but customarily with a regular trio of piano, bass and drums, the ideal setting for her spectacular improvisations. Miss Carter was a native of Flint, Mich., and she was only 16 when she sang with Charlie Parker in a Detroit club. elvispelvis.com /bettycarter.htm   (1317 words)

Scriptorium - Angela Carter Angela Carter's life – the background of social mobility, the teenage anorexia, the education and self-education, the early marriage and divorce, the role-playing and shape-shifting, the travels, the choice of a man much younger, the baby in her forties – is the story of someone walking a tightrope. Carter's description of the unabashedly male-dominated Japanese culture ("In the department store there was a rack of dresses labeled 'For young and cute girls only.'") serves as a devastating backdrop to a discussion of a relationship rather than a plotted story in the conventional sense. Carter's favorite fairy tale in The Virago Book of Fairy Tales, which she edited, was the Russian riddle story, "The Wise Little Girl," "in which the tsar asks [the heroine] for the impossible and she delivers it without batting an eyelid."(31) Perhaps a good description of Angela Carter as well. www.themodernword.com /scriptorium/carter.html   (11696 words)

Jimmy Carter Even if Carter is 100% correct in his assertion, he is wrong to take a stance in direct opposition to the current administration while in Cuba. Jimmy Carter's record demonstrates that he is a champion of human rights abusers and tyrannical dictators. Carter still feels entitled to an opinion, as well as to a role in international missions. www.punditreview.com /jimmy_carter.htm   (1183 words)
