Trivia tidbit of the day:
From January 20 to June 22, 1993, there were eight former or present first ladies alive at the same time: Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Lady Bird Johnson, Pat Nixon, Betty Ford, Rosalyn Carter, Nancy Reagan, Barbara Bush, and Hillary Clinton.
That’s a lot. And it’s more than the highest number of presidents who have been alive at any one time, which I think is six (first while Lincoln was president – Van Buren, Tyler, Fillmore, Pierce, Buchanan and Lincoln – and again during Bill Clinton’s first 15 months as president until Nixon died – Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton).
Useless trivia for a Friday. Why not.
