Who was the last president born in a home without electricity or running water?
George Will answers it in his column in The Washington Post from Friday.
I'll quote his answer here tomorrow...Sunday.
Here it is:
The major 1968 candidates were all from working-class families: Vice President Hubert Humphrey, the son of a struggling Wallace, S.D., pharmacist; Richard M. Nixon, the last president born in a home without electricity or running water; Wallace, son of a farmer in hardscrabble Barbour County. The working class would define 1968.
