JUST IN: Jimmy Carter collapses at Habitat Build

Former President Jimmy Carter collapsed at a Habitat build in Winnipeg Thursday morning.

CBC reporters were on scene covering the build and reported paramedics and firefighters scrambled to the site. Reportedly, one camera on site captured Carter saying "I'm tired", but he continued to work up until his collapse around 9:30 local time. Witnesses report Carter was suffering from dehydration.

A spokesman for Habitat for Humanity in Winnipeg with the president confirmed the collapse and said "He's going to be OK." Carter is headed to Winnipeg's St. Boniface Hospital.

President Carter has done more for our nation and our world since leaving office than he ever did while in office. He is a real humanitarian and I wish him well.

Thank you, President Carter. Put down the hammer and just shake a lot of hands from now on. Your death on a job site would not be a pleasure for any of us.

He was the second worst President in history, but as a man and a Christian, there are few better.
God bless that man, who puts his money where his mouth is and it's NOT in some "foundation" so he avoid some taxes.
He really changes people lives and does it with no desire for compensation.
Cheer that.
