Jimmy Carter was born before the New Deal. Before the electrification of the south. More than two decades before Jackie Robinson broke the color line in baseball. He was 30 when Brown v Board was decided. He was 44 when MLK was assassinated. After his presidency, he had a 42 year retirement.

That was early for the South. I don't have a date on Sumter's county system, but imagine it was probably 1965 or 1966.
He was a real one.
