Answer: Jimmy Carter

Step-by-step explanation:

On this day in 1980, the USOC voted to back Jimmy Carter's demand for a boycott of the Olympic Games in Moscow. That was 37 years ago. Vice President Walter Mondale made a statement prior to the vote in which he explained the administration's justification for the boycott.
