But while the band played,
Carter came. His motorcade
moved up Gervais Street and the
crowd began to cheer. The wait

was iuuuiy uver, una oanaers joo
was almost over. Only one more
chore was left.
"And now, the next President of
the United States, Jimmy Carter,"
he screamed as he looked up the 53

emerged from behind two brown
doors.
THE CROWD of between 3,000
and 5,000 got its first look at him,
waving and smiling back to them,
flashing the smile that never
seemed to leave his face. With a
cluster of Secret Service agents
and South Carolina politicians,
Carter made his way to the
3[7CdACl a JJ1C1HU1 111.
After brief hugs with West and
Ravenel and an introduction by
Sen. Ernest F. Hollings, D-S.C.,
Carter began to speak.
"We have been hit with
numerous blows in the last eight
years," Carter said. He said the
blows have come from the secret
bombing of Cambodia, Watergate,
the Central Intelligence Agency
and "the resignation in disgrace of
a president of the United States
and of a vice president of the
United States."
These revelations, Carter said,
"have caused the American people
to lose respect for government.

new day and a new leader," he
said. "It is time the government
met our needs and that's what's
going to happen next January."
His message completed, Carter
entered the crowd and was mobbed
by supporters.
Just before he left, a group of
youths, most of them in their teens,
made a final surge to shake his
hand. Though many of them were
too young to vote, they made
desperate efforts to reach Carter
before he left.
"I got close so often," said one
girl. "I just couldn't ..." She
didn't finish her sentence, instead
she plunged back into the crowd for
one final effort that was doomed to
fail.
CARTER HAD little time for
anything else. After a brief handshaking
session, Carter got back
into his dark green Chrysler
Newport and left for Columbia
Metropolitan Airport where his
airplane, "Peanut One," was

Just before he left, however,
Sanders was able to get in one
more platitude. Carter, who had
already been called more nice
. things than anyone could
remember, was credited with
miraculous power as well.

Carter just smiled.
