Former President Jimmy Carter Dies Carter served one term as U.S. president before being defeated by Ronald Reagan in 1980.

Jimmy Carter's selflessness and is something to which we should all aspire. From his days fighting racial discrimination in Georgia, through his presidency & his monumental post-presidency, he left an incredible impact on the world. His memory is a blessing. www.huffpost.com/entry/former...
