Name the US Presidents

[dahermit]

dahermit, it's really not that hard. Did you have trouble memorizing the alphabet too?
I'll bet you remember every word to your favorite song....

Yes, and no. Had trouble with the alphabet (It was before singing the alphabet song was used as an aid.) And to this day, I do not know the words of any song all the way through...not even Xmas carols. However, I can remember any fact that has struck me as interesting, to the point where some people insist that I have a "photographic memory". I just do not find memorizing the names and order of presidents to be an essential or even particularly useful skill.

Note: Two/most? of my favorite "songs" do not have words..."Revell's Bolero" and "Take Five" by the Ramsey Lewis Trio.

Knowing the presidents names is useful only in terms of what occurred during their terms, both nationally and internationally, and the ideologies/actions that in turn shaped the nation.
