| Additional Information | This button was most likely commissioned to be used during Carter’s 1976 Presidential campaign. His previous political experience included being a member of his local board of education, a Georgia State Senator and later as Governor of Georgia. Carter first appeared on the cover of Time Magazine on the May 31, 1971 issue as a new, progressive governor. James Earl Carter Jr. served as the 39th President of the United States from 1977-1981. African Americans supported Carter’s liberal ideals and were optimistic that Carter’s upbringing in a largely African American community would be to their advantage. |
