Warren G. Harding
Warren G. Harding

[Addressing a young aide:] You have a college education, haven't you? I don't know what to do or where to turn in this taxation matter. Somewhere there must be a book that tells all about it, but I don't know where that book is, and maybe I couldn't read it if I found it!

Most historians agree with that Harding was very well qualified for the job. (See {622567} & {622568}),)And he personally did not have any great ambition to be president. He was a very affable man who spent much of his time drinking, playing cards, and having women entertain with his political buddies. His wife however, was a very accomplished and powerful newspaper publisher and she insisted that he run and he won. He continued his entertainment with his cronies and was a very weak president.

Overall, I'd say I was an awesome bookseller, but probably not the best book shelver. I loved recommending books and helping people find books.
