Eight United States Presidents that have escaped my consciousness

Would you like to see if you are a bigger idiot than the Crazy Blog Lady? Click Here to take Mental Floss' "Name all the Presidents in Eight Minutes" quiz. It's fun, and difficult. Below are eight of the 9 that I could not name. The ninth shall remain a crazy mystery.


* James Monroe, our fifth president.

*William Henry Harrison, our ninth president, who looks like Dewey from Malcolm in the Middle.

* Benjamin Harrison, our 23rd president, who shares a last name with our ninth president.

*John Tyler, our tenth president. I forgot Tippecanoe, too. He had no vice-president while he served as president.

*Zachary Taylor, president number 12. How could I forget "Old rough and ready"?

*Millard Fillmore, who was Taylor's vice president, and our 13th president upon Taylor's death. He was never elected president.

*Grover Cleveland, who was #22 and #24. A two-fer!

* And his successor, William McKinley, whom I often confuse with Wilford Brimley.
