I am not familiar with this.

Can you expand with city and dates?
Andrew Johnson was a President, VP, and mayor of Greeneville, TN. He was elected mayor January, 4 1834.

Yup, thanks. He was born in NC but lived/served in/for TN.

Lincoln Republican was  being sarcastic, because he already said the same name, with city and dates, just a few posts above.

What?

How dare you say I was being sarcastic?

I most certainly was not being sarcastic.

MohamedChalid had thought that Johnson may have been Mayor of a town in NC.

I was aware that Johnson had been  Mayor of Greenville, TN, but not that he may have been Mayor of a town in NC.

It is possible, you know, for someone to have lived in one state and served as Mayor of a town in that state, then moved to a different state, and served as a Mayor of a town in their new state.

After all, Johnson did live in North Carolina before he moved to Tennessee.  

MohamedChalid, please be assured that I was not being at all sarcastic.  I was simply seeking some clarification.  



Nah, there's no problem with that. I did not read your first post. I thought he had been a mayor in NC (probably Raleigh). But that's the city he was born in. I knew that he was born in NC but later a governor and senator in TN.

But actually interesting that only few presidents served as mayor. I never thought about that.
