Ancestry.com suggests that Jimmy Carter is my 8th Cousin, 2x Removed and would be related to me through a common ancestor (William Hickman (1638-1683)) on my Mom's side (Mendenhall); HOWEVER, the information they provided in the app didn't make any sense and I couldn't find the connection doing my own research, so for now, it's a NO.
