[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jimmy Carter was the first President of the United States to publicly declare that he was born-again, in 1976. By the 1980 campaign, all three major candidates stated that they had been born again.

Jimmy Carter, cult member. [/quote]

In the 1970s, it was found by political strategist that the evangelical vote had not been won by anybody. Jimmy Carter declared himself to be evangelical and it helped him win.  So did Ronald Reagan. Neither were born again, and neither were evangelical, but it did help their elections.

After an initial defeat for the governorship of Georgia, he was elected to the state's top office in 1970 - a position he would use as a springboard to the White House.
As a office holder, Mr Carter was driven by a mixture of born-again Christian spirit, a sense of independence and a liberal tradition. The latter was inherited, not from his father, who was a white segregationist, but from his mother, Lillian, who joined the Peace Corps at the age of 68, and spent two years working as a nurse in India.

His sister, a faith healer, had by then convinced him to commit himself totally to God. As president, he continued to preach at Sunday school for children and always said grace before meals, even at state dinners with foreign leaders.

“Today it may seem inevitable that evangelicals gravitated to the Republican Party in the 1980s; but Carter, the wealthy peanut farmer from Georgia who won the 1976 election as a Jesus-loving Democrat, complicates the story. Like the evangelical politicians who succeeded him, Carter talked about his “personal relationship with Jesus Christ.”

But there's another source of inspiration for Carter that's been overlooked in many of the tributes -- his distinctive brand of White evangelical Christianity, which remains hidden from most Americans.

Carter is a progressive White evangelical Christian. That may seem like an oxymoron, but it shouldn't. Progressive White evangelicalism was once what one historian called "the ascendent strain of evangelicalism in America."

Jimmy Carter was definitely a born again evangelical Christian.

And a cult member.
