Thread Name: BS: Carter's Nobel Peace Prize Speech
Subject: RE: BS: Carter's Nobel Peace Prize Speech
Excellent quote, Wolfgang! Carter said something similar the other day when he stated that he was sure that he was receiving the prize for his actions after his presidency.
Nonetheless, if it weren't for a late nomination, Carter would have likely shared the prize with Israeli Prime Minister Menachim Begin and Egyptian President Anwar Sadat in 1978, for brokering the peace deal between Israel and Egypt.
