"But we, at the Carter Center, are convinced that we thank him for his long life serving millions of the world's poorest people," the center said in a statement.

As the winner of a Nobel Peace Prize and three separate Grammy Awards, President Jimmy Carter can now add the fact that he is the oldest US President on his long and impressive resume.
