Our President’s Have Been Some Weird Cats
Millard Fillmore
Married his one time teacher. His first wife Abigail was his "Hot for Teacher" teacher when he went to the New Hope Academy at 19. That's not all, dig these other weirdo factoids:
Franklin Pierce
Was arrested for running a lady over with his horse, WHEN he was President. Charges later dropped. Horses are gonna horse.
James Garfield
Could write Latin with one hand and Greek with the other at the same time. SHOW OFF!
Teddy Roosevelt - (One of my all time favorites but if you read enough about him you learn he was pretty much an accomplished, functioning psychopath)
Was shot in an assassination attempt WHILE delivering a speech. He finished the speech saying: "I give you my word, I do not care a rap about being shot; not a rap." He's fascinating, the whole blog should be about him but I'll be here all weekend if I get started on this guy.
William Taft AKA "Big Bill"
Was a large fellow. He once got stuck (wedged) in the bathtub while he was President. He needed to call for help to get out.
Herbert Hoover
He let his son have two pet alligators. They ran wild throughout the White House. HERB! Get your kids in line bro.
Lyndon B. Johnson
He had a nickname for his junk, "Jumbo." SURE Lyndy, Sure.
Gerald Ford
Played College Football at the University of Michigan. He also modeled while in college and appeared on the cover of Cosmopolitan Magazine. Bet ya didn't know that? Gerald Ford graced the cover of the same magazine as Kendall Jenner.
President's are people too dammit. Sometimes you run a lady over with a horse, it doesn't mean you meant to. From chubby dudes stuck in bathtubs to alligators running amok in the White House. History is fun.
