    Re: A great video to learn the presidents
    Posted by Daniel Leary on 1/19/09

    I think that sounds great! Feel free to post the video wherever you
    like.

    Here are the words:

    A Presidential Poem By Daniel Leary Washington’s city, a capital
    tale Second was Adams. The navy set sail Jefferson purchased but
    not form a store In 1812 Madison waged our first war Monroe made a
    compromise, slaves in Missouri Then a bargain corrupt. Adams out in
    a hurry War hero Jackson, a trail full of tears Van Buren, his
    protégé out in 4 years. Harrison died after 31 days Tyler, his
    vice, gave the Whigs a malaise The Pacific is reached! Polk’s
    expansion was steady. Then, Taylor was nicknamed as “Ol’ Rough and
    Ready” Post mortem was Fillmore who’s known as “Forgettable”
    Kansas-Nebraska was Pierce most regrettable. Next was Buchanan,
    considered a dandy. Freedom was Lincoln’s modus operandi. But after
    his death Johnson failed to persist It was Grant who did most as
    reconstruction-ist. Hayes left the South to Civilian Rule Garfield
    was shot by a job seeking fool. Arthur reformed civil service
    corruption Cleveland served two terms with one interruption
    Grandson Ben Harrison POTUS centennial Back again Cleveland our
    only perennial. Spain gave McKinley a battle royale Then Teddy Bear
    Roosevelt built a canal. His handpicked successor was heavy-set
    Taft Then Wilson established the first World Warcraft Harding faced
    scandals although they’re refuted We kept cool with Coolidge who
    kept mostly muted. Depression did Hoover his fate surely seal Then
    infamous Roosevelt wheeled the New Deal The buck stopped at Truman,
    a nuclear power The Ike that we liked was D Eisenhower Kennedy’s
    murder unraveled the nation Nam conquered Johnson, but not
    segregation. Nixon resigned over Watergate shame After which Ford
    did a pardon proclaim Peace between Israel and Egypt was Carter An
    actor gave new Reagan-omics a charter We read Bush’s lips when they
    said “No new Tax” And Clinton was cool but he had too much sax
    Bush’s son, Dubya, a giant calamity So come on Obama! Bring back
    global amity.
