It's been so hard to get any information on the current presidential contenders here in the US. The news media just refuses to cover it... NOT! Even so, I thought you could use some more political information
According to The Book of Useless Information, by Noel Botham
- More presidents have been born in the state of Virginia than in any other state.
- David Rice Atchinson was president of the United States for exactly one day.
- George Washington had to borrow money to go to his own inauguration.
- Abraham Lincoln's famous Gettysburg Address consisted of just 272 words.
- Herbert Hoover was the first US president to have a telephone in his office.
- Jimmy Carter was the first US president to be born in a hospital.
- Ronald Reagan married his first wife, Jane Wyman, at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Glendale, California.
I profess no political affiliation in this blog, just thought the above were interesting...
