What Jimmy Carter Has Meant to Georgia
Wednesday, August 19th, 2015
I didn’t live in Georgia back in 1976, and the odds are good that you didn’t either. The state’s population back then was five million, roughly half what it is today, and over the past 40 years many of that original five million have passed on. So most of us living in Georgia weren’t here to witness the election of Jimmy Carter as president of the United States.
Nor do we have a sense of its impact on the state.
