Yes, as they say, politics is a dirty business. And toiling as President can prove to be grimier and filthier than any political office.
They promise to be pure. They promise to clean up the mess left by the fellow before them. They won’t muddy the waters with their objectives.
Well, some Presidents have done just as they said they would.
In one form or another.

Forgot about ” Old Tippecanoe”! Do you believe in the curse? I tell you, one doesn’t need SOAP opera’s to be entertained, just read about our past Presidents lives and history!
Haha…I like that. First of all, thanks so much for taking the trouble to even write again. Second = hmm, that curse. No – I don’t believe in curses of any kind. I believe people lead themselves into self-fulfilling prophesies. And I think he just was too old and weak and got sick – and was overwhelmed with those office-seekers. Poor old W.H.
Sorry Carl, you might remember the curse as Tecumseh’s curse. Your ole’s buddy Harding’s death fell to curiously closely related to this curse. I have your book FLORENCE HARDING William Morrow & Co. 1998, sitting on my bookshelf looking at me right now!

Spoooookie, huh?
I don’t believe in curses either, but I do like pretending to tell someone that I put a curse on them when they are misbehaving 🙂
I know that Florence Harding believed in curses and took various steps to avoid “bad luck.” I do believe she put that book about her which I wrote right in front of you as you wrote your message…..haha…who knows?
