May 24- Presidents

Since I failed in my duties as blogmaster to report to you yesterday, I'll try to make this question a super hard one! Remember the days of old? Children played baseball in the streets, horses roamed cities as an everyday happening? Work was harder, play-time came with less batteries and packaging, and life was all but complex. And yet, a resounding similarity between the days of old and the calender boxes of now is public image. If any person wants to run for any sort of public office, image is the most important. After all, it is the first thing one sees about a candidate (for it is harder to delve deep into a politician's résumé.) And, looking back into the days of old, we can get a glimpse of a president who was a master of public image. So for my daily question, I ask: Which president was known for giving a flower off of his lapel to small children?






The president was William McKinley. (And for a side note, that was the last thing he did before he died.)
