Who was Vice President when you were born, I have no idea myself.

[texanwitch]

GD has a thread about who was President when you were born, so I can't pick that one.

Lets show GD just how smart we are in the Lounge.

[KitchenWitch]

[recoveringdittohed]

81. Me also (1952)

[LiberalEsto]

109. Me three (1952)

but I didn't know that until just now.

[FloridaJudy]

12. I couldn't remember

So I Googled it. There was a damned good reason I couldn't remember (aside from the obvious fact that I was just a few minutes old): there was no Vice President then! Yup, there was a gap between April 12, 1945 and Jan 20, 1949 when the US had no VP. Roosevelt had died, and Truman served out the term without a veep.

Now, for the trivia question of the day: who was Truman's VP during his second term? I guessed wrong.

[yellowdogintexas]

19. same here, 1948. My mom didn't get to vote because she was

still in hospital w/ me. Back then you stayed 2 weeks for childbirth, you know.

Anyway, his VP was Alben Barkely I think for whom a very large lake in Kentucky is named.

Cordell Hull was Sec State, I think and Tennessee has a dam/lake named for him.

All for the purpose of getting electricity to the Southeast.

[FloridaJudy]

23. Yeah, for some bizarre reason

I thought Truman's VP had been Adlai Stevenson. I guess because that was the only other Democratic politician I can remember from my early childhood. My family was extremely liberal, so I'm just continuing the tradition.

My sister named her Teddy Bear "Harry Bridges". That's the kind of home I grew up in. Thank goodness.

[Born_A_Truman]

104. Same here--No VP (1946)

52. Were you born in the 1960s?

[Lil Missy]

56. No, I was born in 1956, but before the election in November.

So it would be the VP in 1955, but I can't find a reference for that time period.

[KitchenWitch]

57. Nixon was Veep.

JFK & LBJ came into the office in January, I was born a few weeks before the Bay of Pigs and Cuban Missile Crisis. I actually remember when JFK was shot, I remember my parents freaking out. With the events in those years, including the messes in Viet Nam, there was quite a lot to be freaked out about.

[martymar64]

LBJ didn't have a Veep prior to the 1964 election.
