189: THE BACHELOR PADS OF JAMES BUCHANAN ON HAIL TO THE CHIEF

Although James Buchanan, our 15th President, is considered by most historians to be the worst Commander-In-Chief in American history, my photographer and I were honored to have walked in his footsteps where he lived, worked, and died. Buchanan’s biggest claim to Presidential fame is he’s still our nation’s only bachelor President. I’m not sure if that was because he was smart, homely, or just didn’t care for girls.

On Tuesday May 12, 2022, our good friends at GBS Media in Port Huron, Michigan published the 16th episode of our show ‘Hail to the Chief’. In that episode, Tom and I shared images and told stories about the historic sites we’ve visited in the past that were associated with Buchanan. At one point during the show, you’ll see a photo where I stood on Buchanan’s Presidential desk he had used in the White House.

While some Presidents were good, some were bad, and some were even ugly, my photographer and I try to bring the person to life and show a side of each President that you hadn’t seen or heard before.

However, we do love sharing our stories with anyone interested in Presidential history.

Thomas Watson

My name is Thomas Watson and I've been a U.S. history fanatic since I was 9 years old. In 2013, I decided to take my passion to the next level when I purchased a Thomas Jefferson bobble head with the sole intention of photographing that bobble head at Presidential sites. From that first day on July 10, 2013 at Spiegel Grove in Fremont, Ohio, this journey has taken on a life of its own. Now, nearly 40,000 miles later, I thought it was time to share the experiences, stories, and photos of Jefferson's travels. Keep in mind, this entire venture has been done with the deepest respect for the men who held the office as our President; no matter what their political affiliations, personal ambitions, or public scandals may have been. This blog is intended to be a true tribute to the Presidents of the United States and this story will be told Through the Eyes of Jefferson. I hope you enjoy the ride!
