VICE PRESIDENT TO WOODROW WILSON / #28

  • Said "I was the Wilson administration's spare tire - to be used only in case of emergency."
    (For more of his funny quips, check out this PBS article.)

  • Buuuuut he wasn’t used in an emergency. First Lady Edith Wilson ran the show.
    (For a scripted comedic version of what went down, check out the freaking hysterical podcast Edith! Marshall is played by Stephen Root.)

  • Buried in the same cemetery as two other Vice Presidents.

I’ve read at least one book about every U.S. president, never tire of shoehorning presidential trivia into conversations, and am basically an expert at hiding mistakes in my sketchbooks.
