What three U.S. Presidents have won the Presidency but lost their home state (state of residence)? 

Bonus:  Did the most recent one win his home CD?  (I don't know the answer but wish I did).

Polk
Wilson
Nixon? 

Who was (arguably) our first black President?

What was the first Presidential election where the winning candidate not only won the homestates of himself and his running mate, but also of his opponent and his running mate?

1972.  Nixon/Agnew over McGovern/Shriver.
