    30 Amazing Facts You Never Knew About U.S. Presidents bestlifeonline.com/us-president-facts By Matt Alderton February 7, 2020 February 7, 2020 Alamy George Washington was a commander during the Revolutionary War. Abraham Lincoln was tall. Franklin D. Roosevelt had polio. John F. Kennedy was the first Catholic president. Richard Nixon resigned from office. Bill Clinton liked fast food. And Barack Obama had a dog named Bo while in office. These are just a few of the facts about U.S. presidents that you've probably heard before. For every nugget of presidential history that you've already mined, however, there is a treasure trove of trivia tidbits waiting to be discovered. After all, presidents aren't just America's most powerful leaders; as it turns out, they're also some of its most interesting characters. In honor of Presidents' Day, here are 30 fascinating facts you probably never knew about U.S. presidents. 1 George Washington was a redhead. 1/42 Shutterstock George Washington's lionized locks are universally recognized thanks to his place on the dollar bill. What's far less common knowledge, however, is that they were neither fake nor white, as they appear to be in portraits. While it's true that wigs were popular in Washington's day, America's first president preferred his natural hair, which he kept long 2/42 and wore tied back in a ponytail. Because he still wanted to appear fashionable, however, Washington—a redhead—powdered his hair so that it matched his contemporaries' white wigs. 2 John Adams was the first president to live in the White House.

  • The Prez Quiz Answers
    PREZ TRIVIAL QUIZ AND ANSWERS Below is a Presidential Trivia Quiz and Answers. GRADING CRITERIA: 33 questions, 3 points each, and 1 free point. If the answer is a list which has L elements and you get x correct, you get x=L points. If any are wrong you get 0 points. You can take the quiz one of three ways. 1) Take it WITHOUT using the web and see how many you can get right. Take 3 hours. 2) Take it and use the web and try to do it fast. Stop when you want, but your score will be determined as follows: If R is the number of points and T 180R is the number of minutes then your score is T + 1: If you get all 33 right in 60 minutes then you get a 100. You could get more than 100 if you do it faster. 3) The answer key has more information and is interesting. Do not bother to take the quiz and just read the answer key when I post it. Much of this material is from the books Hail to the chiefs: Political mis- chief, Morals, and Malarky from George W to George W by Barbara Holland and Bland Ambition: From Adams to Quayle- the Cranks, Criminals, Tax Cheats, and Golfers who made it to Vice President by Steve Tally. I also use Wikipedia. There is a table at the end of this document that has lots of information about presidents. THE QUIZ BEGINS! 1. How many people have been president without having ever held prior elected office? Name each one and, if they had former experience in government, what it was.

  • Turkey's Presidential System After Two and a Half Years. an Overview Of
    SWP Research Paper Sinem Adar and Günter Seufert Turkey’s Presidential System after Two and a Half Years An Overview of Institutions and Politics Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik German Institute for International and Security Affairs SWP Research Paper 2 April 2021, Berlin Abstract ∎ Turkey’s new Presidential System has failed to realise the goals that it was said to achieve with its introduction despite the disapproval of half the population. ∎ Contrary to the ruling party’s claims in favour of the new governance system, two and a half years after its introduction, parliament is weaker, separation of powers is undermined, the judiciary is politicised, institu- tions are crippled, economic woes are mounting and authoritarian prac- tices prevail. ∎ Despite the almost unlimited and unchecked power that the new system grants to the President over institutions, his space for political manoeuvre is, surprisingly, narrower than it was in the parliamentary system. ∎ Providing the otherwise divided opposition a joint anchor of resistance, the Presidential System unintentionally breathed life into the inertia of Turkey’s political party setting. ∎ The formation of splinter parties from the ruling party, primarily address- ing the same conservative electorate, alongside the changing electoral logic with the need to form alliances to win an election, poses a serious challenge to the ruling party and its leader – the President. ∎ Despite the oppositional alliance’s electoral victory in 2019 local elec- tions, it is at the moment unclear whether the forming parties share a common vision for steps towards democratic repair. ∎ Together with the institutional havoc caused by the Presidential System, the blurry outlook of the opposition requires caution about an easy and rapid positive transformation.

  • Thomas Jefferson Biography Guided Reading
    Activities: Guided Reading/Secondary Name_________________________ Thomas Jefferson 1743 – 1826 Thomas Jefferson was born on April 13, 1743 in Shadwell, Albemarle County, Virginia. His Father was Peter Jefferson, a well-to-do landowner, and his mother was Jane Randolph Jefferson, whose family was one of the original settlers of Virginia. Jefferson was a very tall, lanky young man with freckles and reddish, sandy hair. He attended the College of William and Mary and studied law. Upon his father's death, Jefferson inherited 5,000 acres of land. At the age of 26, Jefferson began building his Monticello estate. The mansion took several years to complete but a section of it was livable by the time he married Martha Wayles Skelton at age 29. They had 6 children but only two, Martha and Mary, lived to adulthood. Jefferson owned approximately 200 slaves he divided among three homes, Monticello, Albemarle County Plantation, and the Poplar Forest estate.
