While at work, I clicked on the dreaded IE tab (I prefer Firefox) and the first page that loaded up was MSN.com - not my favorite homepage. Suddenly, before going to Google news, a little link catches my eye about Little Known Facts About Our Presidents, so out of curiosity I clicked the link. Sure, I knew the presidents names, but I never really bothered researching their personalities or even their stint in office, so I was pleasantly surprised to find this link filled with information about our presidents. I'm amazed, just by reading this short list, that some of our presidents even got elected! Take John Tyler for example with 15-children in a mostly Christian conservative era of America, or Andrew Johnson who never attended school in his life. Fascinating stuff if you like history but never paid attention to it at school - like me.
