Who was the US President When you were born?

Reagan, but just barely (born in 1988). Not a fan to say the least but everyone since has managed to be even worse.

I believe Jimmy Carter did some agreement with Castro's Cuba that was joke.

FDR

:/

Papa Bush

John Quincy Adams....1825 - 1829

I was only 7 months old when he was assasinated.

But Eisenhower was the first President I remember.

I am cursed for this!!!

How?

Because it is Reagan...

YUCK!

The last GREAT DEMOCRAT President this Country has had EVER known!

Johnson was.

Millard Fillmore. He was very similar to GWB and much like Mitt Romney. Great man. Was a Whig, then helped found the "No Nothing Party" which today we call "The Party of No", having the same ideals and goals. They opposed Lincoln throughout the Civil War, produced the "Bloodhound Law" to chase runaway slaves, and tried to introduce slavery into the "territories". Yessir, old Millard would today be a shoo in for the nomination and Mitten could be a viable Vice President.

The Know Nothing Party, correct. They hated immigrants too, especially the Catholics.

Truman!

The last President with the guts to really enforce ALL of our immigration laws,and protect our own borders as well!

On Jan. 17, 1961, President Dwight Eisenhower gave the nation a dire warning about what he described as a threat to democratic government. He called it the military-industrial complex, a formidable union of defense contractors and the armed forces. Can't say we weren't warned.

He also rounded up every illegal alien he could find in the border states! Then he sent them home after the war in army trucks! Just so our own returning Vets could find work as well

Can say we have never before ignored such a significant warning and clapped as the ruthless complex absconded with our Repujblic.

I don't know if we can say "never" since the US is known for ignoring warnings of all kinds since its inception. That said, Ike's is certainly one of the clearest and we ignored it at our peril.

Wasn't the top income tax rate 91% when he was in the White House?

(I agree with taxing the rich)

During the administration of Republican President Dwight D. Eisenhower, a 92 percent marginal income tax rate for top earners in the United States remained from the previous administration of Harry S. Truman. At the time, the highest tax bracket was for income over $400,000.

This was nearly the highest tax rate for top earners in the century, just under the 94 percent rate for income over $200,000 instated during World War II under Franklin D. Roosevelt's presidency.

In 1954, the 92 percent marginal rate decreased to 91 percent under Eisenhower. The maximum tax on long-term capital gains was 25 percent -- a rate that remained in place for a decade.

And while subsequent presidents tended to lower the marginal rate, it remained at 70% or above. That set the scene very nicely for Ronnie Reagan, who the right loves to deify. The thing is, he lowered the rate considerably and started the ball rolling for the catastrophe we have today. I wish people would take ten minutes to see what the Reagan administration really did to us all. It wasn't good.

Thank you!

That would be Teddy Roosevelt, would it not?

Not really! Since Ike called It operation WET BACK in fact!

Wonder how the nation would have produced the field crops during WWII had those Mexicans not come across the border and planted, tended and harvested the food that fed not only our country and troops, but most of Europe? How easily we forget those who served and helped.

I really would like to see all Hispanic workers in this country take the month of September as a holiday. Really. Wouldn't that be a hoot, and a disaster of immeasurable proportions? No Starbucks, McDonalds, Arbys, Walmart, no trash pickups, no clean sheets in the hospitals or nursing homes, no appointments with the Doctor, no 911 responders, no construction work, no lettuce, tomatoes, corn, cucumbers, strawberries, and a thousand other things we take for granted tomorrow. The DOW Industrial Average would fall at least 2,000 points, probably more, banks would close for lack of help, bodies would stack up in the morgue, no funerals, no day care .... on and on.

Would that cause Speaker Boehner to come off the golf course and get the "House in Order"? Maybe, but what a shock that would be if they had to actually go to work and face a problem? OK, they wouldn't, who am I kidding?

Thanks for this. I've tried to say something very similar, but never have done it quite as well.

FDR, ...OR WAS IT WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT? .....MY ALZHEIMERS CONFUSES ME SOMETIMES.

@ least it wasn't Hooburt Heever! :)

Sorry about that!

Go on, call me young.

YOU'RE VERY YOUNG! ...GREAT GRANDMA
