"LOS ANGELES (AFP) — Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama on Sunday beat two former US presidents, Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter, when he picked up a Grammy Award in Los Angeles.

Obama, who is currently neck and neck with Hillary Clinton in the fierce battle for the Democratic party's presidential nomination, won the music industry's prize in the category for best spoken word album.

The freshman senator for Illinois was honored for his audio version of his book "The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream."

I'm training for a marathon and an ironman triathlon...am running about 50 miles a week right now, and this will definitely help me pass the time (though yesterday's 14 mile run while listening to Randi Rhodes was great too:))
