[DeposeTheBoyKing]

5. How my mom LOVED that man

She was born in 1925, and she shared many memories of life during the Depression. I think that's why she became a liberal. She worshiped the ground he walked on!

3. Same for both:

[greenmutha]

4. They were born 4 years apart.

Dad:



Mom:

[JTG of the PRB]

6. Same for both my parents:

Harry S. Truman. I never thought about it until now, but my parents were born under a Democratic President... My sister and I were both born under Repuke rule.

[krispos42]

16. Me as well

Both Truman, my mom in 1950 and my dad in 1948.

Not that she'll ever admit that... :-)

9. I'll spare everyone a repost of that same Coolidge pic...

But my mom was born in 1924.

This guy is Wilhelm Marx, Chancellor of the Weimar Republic when my dad was born in Hamburg in 1927.

Nothing spells geek more than Presidential trading cards. I did not even know they made these until I was searching for pics for this thread.

[harmonicon]

12. enough FDR pictures already, so I won't post one

Maybe Truman was president when my mom was born - I'm really not sure... she was born in '44. What month did Truman take office? Was it not until 45? Jeez... I feel like an idiot for not knowing all of this blllllllrrrrrrrrrp

[JVS]

22. April 12, 1945 was when FDR died and Truman became president

[harmonicon]

25. ok, I feel a little less stupid

I knew it was after the election of '44 (obviously) but no more than a few months into '45. At least I remember some things from history.

[Aristus]

13. President for both:

Great man. And great President.

[LSdemocrat]

14. This guy for both

My dad was born on something like the second or third day of Ike's Presidency; my mom was born a couple of years into it.

In chronological order...

24. Both already pictured multiple times...

Dad was born in '36, so that would have been during FDR's first term.
Mom in '46, so she was a Truman baby.

Ironically, both were staunch conservatives.

I was born during LBJ's elected term.
