I’d welcome the chance to learn a little about Tyler. Or Taylor, Polk, or Harrison (either or both). Those guys are basically forgotten now.

I wonder if any historian actually wrote a book about the past occupants of the presidential office. Besides the bio they could include the foreign and domestic issues of their time.

Gomer Pyle?? Hey, he WAS president once, in a “Laugh-In Looks At The News” blurb: for those who remember that one, it highlighted “news” stories in 1988, “twenny years from now!!” as co-host Dan Rowan would always shout from yer T.V. set back in good/bad ’ol 1968!!

Ben Franklin wasn’t a U.S. president. Did Nate think that because somebody put him on the American $100 bill?
