Wow, I couldn't tell you! I was born in 1952 so I would have to figure from then. Seems like the first president that I remember was Kennedy, the ones before, I just can't remember those.
Whew, makes me feel old!!

Actually..............I believe Bush Sr. was President when you were a baby, so you have 3. ;)
I believe I was born at the beginning of Reagan's second term in office. Then came Bush Sr., Clinton, and now the current Bush. I don't remember Reagan at all, as I was just a little baby then........and he was already president for years before I was born, but my parents loved him as a President, so I've only heard good things about him. May he RIP.

Oh dear! The only one I remember growing up was Eisenhower. I can remember the day Kennedy was shot. I was in 11th grade (in November of 1963) and heard it over the loud speaker at school. I have been around since the dinosaurs. :p :rolleyes:

Just to confuse the issue:
I was born in the UK when Harold Wilson was Prime Minister. After him was James Callaghhan and Margaret Thatcher.
Then I moved to South Africa, and had 4 there:
PW Botha, FW De Klerk, Nelson Mandela (Madiba - my hero) and currently Thabo Mbeki, but in Bahrain the PM is His Royal Highness Shaikh Khalifa Bin Salman Al Khalifa
:confused: Confused??? I am!!!:confused:

I was born early in Eisenhower's term. Therefore, 10 presidents
Let's see what else --
Queen Elizabeth had been coronated a year and a bit before my birth... 1 queen
Wow, Winston Churchill was Prime Minister.
Okay, Churchill, Eden, MacMillan, Douglas-Home, Wilson, Heath, Callaghan, Thatcher, Major, Blair -- 10 P.M.s
Guess which country? St-Laurent, Diefenbaker, Pearson, Trudeau, Clark, Trudeau, Turner, Mulroney, Campbell, Chre'tien, Martin (11 since 1954)
Another guess which country?
Coty, de Gaulle, Pompidou, d'Estaing, Mitterrand, Chirac (6 presidents -- wow, I feel younger already! ;) )

I just love that Pauline - 'coronated' what a great word!! :D :D
Thanks for the giggle!!
Oh that reminds me - I was born during the reign of George VI and remember the day he died - we listened to it on the radio in the school hall and then we were sent home - I was too young to know what it all meant. I remember the Coronation - 'cos we had a day off school(!!) that was everso good -even though it rained!!
Aahhh Memories :) :)
Richard - LOL!! :D :D

Although coronated is growing on me... ;) :p
