Jimmy Carter: Farmhouse to White House | Tevi Troy

Author: PragerU November 18, 2024 Duration: 6:26
After the Watergate scandal, Jimmy Carter ran for president with a powerful promise: “I’ll never lie to you.” His integrity wasn’t in question—his leadership was. In this PragerU 5-Minute Video, presidential historian Tevi Troy examines the rise and fall of America’s 39th President. Discover how Carter’s idealism clashed with the harsh realities of the Cold War, the energy crisis, and a failing economy, and why his presidency remains a lesson in the limits of good intentions in American politics.
