I know this is OT, but Mallard Fillmore is one of the worst comics of all time. As far as conservative-leaning comics go, Prickly City is far superior…

You mean Thomas Jeffereson didn’t take his baths in the Potomac like John Adams? What a snob.

I was always very surprised that during the 2008 election that the media didn’t make more comparisons between Sarah Palin and the Know-Nothing party. Maybe the media wasn’t quite as biased as she made it out to be…

The Know Nothing party was really just a misunderstanding.

“So, what are you gonna do if you get elected?”
“Nothing.”
“Seriously? Forbid or extend slavery in new states? Start a war against Mexico or Canada?”
“No, nothing.”

One of the Hitchcocks named a child Abner Millard Fillmore Hitchcock. Millard Fillmore didn’t have any descendants beyond his two children, who didn’t have any children of their own. His daughter died at 22 and his son likely went insane.

Didn’t the Fillmore families and the Hitchcock families join at some point? I seem to remember that from the Hitchcock history book.
Could there have been a less distinguised group of former presidents than Van Buren, Tyler, Fillmore, Pierce and Buchanan? Why would you want guidance from that group?
