I am the only president who was a sheriff. I had just started my second term in the White House when the nation was hit by a severe depression.
I traveled more extensively than any president to that point in history. Among the places I visited were The Bahamas, Casablanca, and Cairo.
In a speech to Congress, I declared, “We have no quarrel with the German people” and we feel “sympathy and friendship” towards them. Both my predecessor and successor were from the opposite political party from me.
I gave a tenth of my presidential salary one year to the Cuban relief effort of the Red Cross.
I was a two-term US congressman and a three-term governor. I didn’t expect to win the presidency against my opponent, who was from New York.

I was originally named for my biological father but later renamed for my stepfather.
While serving in the U.S. Senate, I reluctantly accepted my party’s nomination for vice president. I served only 82 days as vice president.
In my first State of the Union address, I expressed support for prohibition and U.S. involvement in the World Court. It was the first radio broadcast of an official presidential address.
I did not approve of the Vietnam War and had worked against it while serving as a student aide to J. William Fulbright’s Senate Foreign Relations Committee. I wrote, spoke, and marched against the war and claimed to have helped organize American student protests in London.
Our family compound at Hyannis Port, an affluent summer community on Hyannis Harbor, became my Summer White House.
