President 20 - James A. Garfield
from DB Comedy Presents THE ELECTABLES · host DB Comedy
Sometimes, life - and history - sucks. When your Presidency is the second-shortest because your death by assassination was the longest, well, that's history for ya! At least such anomalies make for great possibilities in comedy and podcasting, so DB Comedy makes do with James A. Garfield - who at least also is the only President written about by Johnny Cash and Stephen Sondheim, if you count Sondheim's song about Charles Guiteau (see what I mean about history?).
