One of the Reconstruction-era Senators, perhaps?

Blanche K. Bruce, probably just as a Mississippi favorite son, in the...1880? Republican Convention?

Winner!

Who are the only two President's to lose their homestates?

Woodrow Wilson (1916)
Richard Nixon (1968)

My question is as follows:

Where was President-Elect John F. Kennedy when he learned that his wife had given birth to John F. Kennedy Jr.?

Nixon won California 48% - 45% in 1968.

But in 1968 his home state was New York.

That is the same thing that I said in my previous post.

Dude, calm down Wink

Homestate is the state you were born in.  Like Hillary's homestate is Illinois, though she lived in Arkansas, D.C. and is a Senator now for NY.

Taft is correct.

I am surprised that it took you all so long to get that answer. It is a basic presidential trivia fact.

Are you F***ing serious!?!?!?

Tilden died a virgin (yet another reason to be a Republican).  Buchanan had a male lover.

He had syphalis though.

Polk, Wilson, and Nixon are right.  Nixon resided in Manhattan at the time of the 1968 election.  Nowadays it's Democrat but in those days the silk stocking district was more Republican.  What inspired me to look up the question was Al Gore losing his own CD in 2000.

Warren G. Harding was our first black president...arguably....

Huh?
