The last member of the House elected to the Presidency was Garfield. Ford was appointed to the office of Vice President. For that matter, the last Senator elected was Kennedy. Johnson was elected to vice-president.

Four of the last 5 presidents were former governors.

I know. Never elected a black liberal freshman senator. Or a screeching hag senator, or a bald mayor of NY.

But we have elected Jimmuh Carter and Bill Clinton. That governor thing doesn’t always work out so well.
