I just looked over BBC and read this breaking news, EX-US President Gerald Ford has died. He was 93 and was the longest living president.
Mr Ford took office after Richard Nixon resigned over the Watergate scandal in 1974. But he lost to Jimmy Carter in the 1976 election.President Bush paid tribute, praising his "integrity and common sense".
Gerald Ford was born in Omaha, Nebraska, and lived with Betty, 88, at Rancho Mirage, about 130 miles (210km) east of Los Angeles in southern California.
The former president suffered ill health this year and he was taken to hospital four times for tests and angioplasty. He suffered a stroke in 2000.
