Jimmy Carter

SKU: TP039

The Toy Presidents are now half-priced! They have never been removed from their original boxes. The Toy Presidents are being sold as-is, with no returns or exchanges, because some have dead batteries. These batteries were available from Toy Presidents, Inc., for $1 apiece, and they may be available from local stores that sell batteries. Remove the battery and take it with you during your search. This is a great opportunity to snatch up a bargain before they’re all gone! A peanut farmer from Plains, a graduate of the Naval Academy, and a former governor of Georgia, James Earl (Jimmy) Carter, Jr. aspired to make government more competent and compassionate. Although he added nearly 8,000,000 jobs (not all of them government positions, of course!), spiraling inflation and interest rates and the resulting recession contributed to his defeat in the 1980 campaign. His successes at Camp David were offset by the hostage situation in Iran, which arguably sealed his fate in 1980. We'll all remember his colorful family and Billy Beer. Relive the Carter years with this 12-inch talking memento. Carter Audio Clips 001-068b America did not invent human rights. In a very real sense it's the other way around: human rights invented America 002-006 And our democratic way of life warrants the admiration and emulation by other people throughout the world. 003-011 We can see a world at peace. We can work for a world without want. We can build a global community dedicated to these purposes and to human dignity. 004-037 We've restored a moral basis for our foreign policy. The very heart of our identity as a nation is our firm commitment to human rights. 005-001 We desire to dominate no one. 006-002 We are particularly dedicated to genuine self-determination and majority rule in those areas of the world where these goals have not yet been attained. 007-034 We brought together parts of eleven different government agencies to create a new Department of Energy, and now it's time to take another major step by creating a separate Department of Education. 008-010 I hereby solemnly declare on behalf of the United States that we will not use nuclear weapons except in self-defense. 009-051 Politics and nuclear arsenals do not mix. We must not play politics with the security of the United States, we must not play politics with the survival of the human race, we must not play politics with SALT II. 010-015 In Iran and in Saudi Arabia we will discuss key economic relationships and press for the continuation of the dramatic progress that is being made in bringing peace to the Middle East. 011-045 We have a special relationship with Israel. It's absolutely crucial that no one in our country or around the world ever doubt that our number one commitment in the Middle East is to protect the right of Israel to exist, to exist permanently, and to exist in peace. 012-094 At this time in Iran fifty Americans are still held captive, innocent victims of terrorism and anarchy. Also at this moment massive Soviet troops are attempting to subjugate the fiercely independent and deeply religious people of Afghanistan. 013-096 In response to the abhorrent act in Iran, our nation has never been aroused and unified so greatly in peace time. Our position is clear: the United States will not yield to blackmail. 014-049b The world is watching to see how we act on one of our most important and controversial items of business, approval of the Panama Canal treaties. The treaties are to the clear advantage of ourselves, the Panamanians, and the other users of the canal. 015-021b Those of us who govern can sometimes inspire, but we simply cannot be the managers of everything and everybody. 016-074 Ordinary people should be able to understand how our own government works and to get satisfactory answers to questions. 017-033 We have made a good start on turning the gobbledy-gook of federal regulations into plain English that people can understand. 018-067 Because the national interests are not always the sum of our single or special interests. 019-017 I try to do the best I can and will continue to do the best I can to eliminate any discrimination or any injustice in this country . 020-023 The tax system must be made fairer and simpler. 021-026 In time of high employment and strong economy, deficit spending should not be a feature of our budget. 022-072 There's no way that I or anyone else in the government can solve our energy problems if you are not willing to help. I know that we can meet this energy challenge if the burden is borne fairly among all our people. And if we realize that in order to solve our energy problems we need not sacrifice the quality of our lives. 023-055 Too many of us now tend to worship self-indulgence and consumption. Human identity is no longer defined by what one does but by what one owns. 024-088 Every single American must stop wasting energy. 025-099 I would like to say to the people living around the Three-Mile Island plant that, if it does become necessary, your governor will ask you and others in this area to take appropriate action to ensure your safety.
