Hmmm.  I said there were 16 two term presidents, and 28 one term presidents and 1 four term presidents...that doesnt add up to 43 presidents.  Oh well, I will work it out later.  Chuck.

Just a note. Although Elizabeth II is Queen of England, Britain, and The Commonwealth, England also has a Prime Minister: GW's buddy, Tony Blair.
