Promoting energy conservation during his tenure, who is this president and Nobel Peace Prize winner?

"America did not invent human rights. In a very real sense, human rights invented America." Although his presidency was not viewed as particularly successful in his day, not many can say a bad word about Jimmy Carter's character. Promising a government "as competent, as compassionate, as good" as the people he served, Carter's legacy as a peacemaker who championed human rights won him the 2002 Nobel Peace Prize. Though he was defeated for reelection in 1980, he is considered by some to be "the best former president in history".
