Peanut farmer from Plains Georgia wins 2002 Nobel Peace Prize.You may not know that I am talking about Jimmy Carter. Yes,he was a peanut farmer, but he would do great things after that. In 1962 he was the Senator of Georgia. During 1970, Governer of Georgia, and in 1976, he was the president of the U.S.A. The most famous thing he did during his presidency was Camp David. He used his"vacation location" to bring peace between Israel and Egypt. Sadly in 1980 he lost the presidential eleation to Regan.
Two years later, after being president, he was famous for global Humanitarian efforts(someone who thinks of others, not just themselves) like Habbitat for Humanity (helps build homes for the poor).
With his winnings,he plans to donate one million dollars (in prize money) to the Carter Center, a non profit non govermental organization. Some things the Carter Center does is have a political think-tank (somewhere you go to think about important things), and acts like a political watchdog. A political watchdog helps oversee elections in troubled countries. I am proud that a peanut farmer from Plains Georgia helped the world so much.
