The nobel prize 2002 Jimmy Carter


Hi people!!!!! In my last class the teacher told us to choose people who won the Nobel prizes between the years 1996 and 2016. I’ve chosen Jimmy Carter, is an Ex-president of the United States and one of the people that won the nobel prize in 2002.


James Earl "Jimmy" Carter Jr. is an Ex-American politician and author who served as the 39th President of the United States from 1977 to 1981.

Carter, a Democrat raised in rural Georgia, was a peanut farmer who served two terms as a Georgia State Senator, from 1963 to 1967, and one as the Governor of Georgia, from 1971 to 1975. He was elected President in 1976, defeating incumbent President Gerald Ford in a relatively close election; the Electoral College margin of 57 votes was the closest at that time since 1916. During his presidency (1977-1981)



He got the nobel due to his decades of untiring effort to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts, to advance democracy and human rights, and to promote economic and social development.  



I have chosen Jimmy Carter because in my opinion is a very interesting person that helps to international conflicts, that advance democracy and human rights, and finally to promote economic and social development. Because of that I think it was a just winner of the nobel of the peace in 2002.  



I hope yo enjoy the article and see you soon!!!
