A member of the Democratic Party, he previously held the office of Governor of Georgia from January 12, 1971, to July 1, 1975.

His administration also faced significant challenges, including the Iran Hostage Crisis and economic difficulties marked by inflation and unemployment.
I'm particularly proud of the one thing that you produce best, and that's good Democrats.
Having good schools, good transportation systems, and good jobs, and not having a disruptive society also helps substantially.
I'm determined that we'll continue this progress to make sure that our Nation is independent on energy.
I'm determined to make this dream of America a living and a breathing reality.
The actions that you take will literally decide the lives of millions of people in our country and indeed throughout the world.
I do not intend to lose this election, and I want to know: Will you help me?
Through our cooperative efforts, we have enacted legislation that will be the building blocks of our Nation's energy policy for decades to come.
We wish you well and express again the great value of the friendship that exists between our two people.
