Gertrude Baines, world's oldest person, dies at 115 Gertrude Baines dies at age 115, was world's oldest person. Baines credited longevity to God, not drinking or smoking. Baines was oldest African-American to vote for President Obama. The only other time she voted in a Presidential election was in 1960 for John F. Kennedy. She enjoyed "simple pleasures" of eating a diet of bacon and eggs, and watched shows like The Price Is Right and Jerry Springer. May she RIP... [Edited 9/12/09 10:21am] | |
