Carter to Step Down From 'Front-Line' Work With The Elders


Jimmy Carter is stepping away from his "front-line role" as a member of The Elders, the global human rights group announced Wednesday. The group also announced that former Brazilian president Fernando Henrique Cardoso will step down and become an honorary member with Carter on June 1. He has showed no signs of slowing down, including work at The Carter Center, the human rights organization he founded after leaving the White House, and other projects. Carter, 91, announced in August that he had skin cancer that had spread to his brain. "These kinds of things are vividly in the minds of the American people than more than five years ago," Carter said.
