Prophet From Plains was published in 2007 and was written by Frye Gaillard, writer in-residence in the English and History departments at the University of south Alabama. This source consists of information gathered from “highs and lows” of Carter’s presidency.

The U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics concluded that an African American male born in 2001 has a 32% chance of going to jail in his lifetime, while a Latino male has a 17% chance, and a white male only has a 6% chance. Further research shows that in New York City, 80% of the stops made by the police were blacks and Latinos, and 85% of those people were frisked, compared to a mere number 8% of white people stopped and the number might be less than that.

Home: Warm, Bond Elaine Tyler May’s book Homeward Bound: American Families in the Cold War Era explores the reason postwar Americans approached marriage and parenthood with greater commitment and enthusiasm than their parents and children did.

The American situation was peculiar considering that the country took a leading role in the World War II that ended up defining the fate of the country as a world superpower. As the most valued social fabric, the family had a bigger role to play during the war.…
C-span recently ranked President, Jimmy Carter, 26th out of the 43 presidents in a presidential historians ranking survey. In my opinion, his ranking was not a justified ranking for many reasons. After Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford served as presidents with their ups and downs, Carter had the mindset of changing America for the better with the intent on fixing the wrong that presidents before him had created. Throughout Carter’s presidency he had also made many mistakes but diligently tried to fix them. On the C-span poll, Carter scored about half in 8 out of 10 leadership characteristics categories, some being international relations and visions or setting an agenda.…

Jimmy Carter was one of the most commonly known U.S presidents, and like all presidents, Jimmy Carter exemplified the roles as the overseeing leader. One as being chief executive, President Carter executed the Executive Order 11803 in 1977. The order reviewed all cases where military duty was abandoned, and it was extremely crucial as it was the Vietnam War crisis at the time.

Opposing sides argued the “Yours is yours” bit, and Carter proposed the legislation to the Senate on April 1978 and it hardly passed.…

Marriage and family formation are seen as important life transitions in this respect. Marriage embeds individuals within a network of extended family and friends, and child bearing and home ownership are associated with greater levels of neighbourhood attachment and involvement (Glezer 1997: 9). In addition, families are seen as the key site for the transmission of behavioural norms (Winter 2000). For example, if children experience good quality connections with community and civil society through their families, this may lead to an increased propensity for those children to become engaged and active citizens in adulthood. More generally, where children are exposed to cooperative behaviour early in life they are more likely to become cooperative adults (Mark 2002).…
