Franklin Pierce is, to this day, considered the Worst President is U.S. History. Its all coming around full circle. Damn genetics getting in the way.

Just so you know, Franklin Pierce was elected because of a biography written about him by a college friend. The college friend that wrote the biography was one of the single most famous writers in American History. And, at the time, that author was a modern day equivalent to J.K. Rowling. (I know she isn't an American but her fame is on equal scale) Who was he? Nathaniel Hawthorne, author of "The Scarlet Letter", "The House of Seven Gables", and of course "The Life of Franklin Pierce".

Franklin pierce was a life-long alchoholic and it destroyed his marriage. He was the only Republican candidate to not receive a nomination for reelection. He later joined the Confederacy.

Now, I'll admit that GW received a second nomination...sadly. But it just tells me that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

YWS - Back after to damn long.

Years from now the Bush presidency will be looked upon in a different light....Just because he was related from a distance has no bearing. That is ridiculous. Ted Kennedy is related to John F Kennedy and the two of them are NOTHING alike.

It was more of an attempt to lighten the conversation with a bit of humor. I just wanted to add something interesting into the conversation. I'm just glad to be back on the board.

It's a disease. I have a kid (actually an adult) who is "addicted" also. At times, it has ruined his life. YWS, you need to layoff of that game and find something more constructive, like go to school or something!

Perhaps if he wasn't living with his dad and some of the responsibilities of real life he wouldn't have time to sit up all night playing games like a 16 year old. Most working, responsible people don't have time for that because they are busy MAKING A LIVING.
