President Taft was so fat he once sat on a quarter and squeezed a booger out of Washington's nose :))

Sure Paul, pickin' boogers is easy but can he give change? lol

Wrong, Paul. When Taft became President, the quarter was the Barber Quarter (1892-1916) with its head of Lady Liberty. The Washington quarter came only in 1932. Taft was president from 1909 into 1913. (from a retired history teacher)
Taft, however, did have the first automobile at the White House, a steamer I think. He was also the heaviest president, and his new bathtub was photographed on the White House grounds with a working guy totally hidden inside it.
Boy, I really know how to kill a joke. Sorry about that.
