Presidential Centenarian

Jimmy Carter, 39th President of the United States, achieved the age of 100 today.  When you consider that all his siblings and his father died of pancreatic cancer, this is nothing short of a miracle.  His father died at 58, his sisters at 63 and 54, and his brother at 51.  Did the deadly gene that cursed his father and siblings miss him or has he lived his life in such a way to dodge pancreatic cancer?  I wonder if any medical researchers have thought to look into this?  Maybe Carter stumbled on a cure or preventative measure.

Happy Birthday, Mr. President!
