Former President Jimmy Carter on Monday won his second Grammy Award, this time for the audio book version of his memoir, "A Full Life: Reflections at Ninety."

This is the second time Carter has been crowned in the Best Spoken Word Album category. In 2007, his reading of "Our Endangered Values: America's Moral Crisis" won him dual honors alongside Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee.

In December, Carter announced he was cancer-free after an initial diagnosis in August.

"My most recent MRI brain scan did not reveal any signs of the original cancer spots nor any new ones. I will continue to receive regular three-week immunotherapy treatments of pembrolizumab," Carter said in a statement.

If the gas shortage/hike plus the hostage crisis, and a botched rescue attempt not his fault, didn't unluckily hit him all at once, he'd have been able to get a lot more good done. Solar panels up for another term at least. And maybe nobody kills the electric car....sooner. But it looks like he still got a lot done after leaving office. If you include post Presidential accomplishments, to those in office, Carter is the most distinguished and accomplished of the lot still alive.
