PRESIDENT CHARACTERISTICS
PETS
Abraham Lincoln was the tallest President at 6 feet 4 inches.If you want to be President, your size doesn't matter. Presidents have come in all shapes and sizes.
Theodore Roosevelt's children didn't just have pets, they ran a zoo. They had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, snakes, mice, rats, badgers, raccoons, parrots, and a Shetland pony called Algonquin.
To cheer up his sick brother, young Quentin once took Algonquin upstairs in the White House elevator.

Golf was big with Presidents. Dwight Eisenhower and John Kennedy were especially good. But when Gerald Ford, George Bush, and Bill Clinton teamed up for a golf game, three of their shots clobbered spectators!
