There are tons of interesting facts but does anyone really know the fun facts about our past presidents? To give a little bit of appreciation to our past Presidents and Forefathers, I did some research on the Internet and came up with some interesting trivia that was most appropriate as we have just past Election Day for the new Presidential Elect. Regardless of whether you voted for Democrat or Republican these interesting facts should be appreciated.

• President James Madison (1809-1817) was quite short as he stood 5 feet 4 inches
• President Abraham Lincoln (1861-1865) was the tallest; 6 feet 4 inches
• President William Howard Taft (1901-1913) was the heaviest as his weight reached 300 lbs at one time. Due to his heavy stature, he literally got caught in the White House bathtub
• President Ronald Reagan (1981-1989) was the oldest to be elected into office; he was 69 years of age
• President John F. Kennedy (1961-1963) was the youngest to be elected into office; he was 43 years of age
