The Presidents and Beer

In honor of Constitution Day – lets talk about our Presidents and Beer -

First, over at 11points.com, they list the Top 11 Drunk Presidents and the reason they listed them as such.

While I would have expected Grant to rank higher, I found it interesting none the less.

Here is the list, but hear over 11 Drunkest Presidents in US History for more on the subject.

1. John Adams
2. Martin van Buren
3. Franklin Pierce
4. James Buchana
5. Ulysses S. Grant
6. Chester A. Aurthur
7. Grover CLeveland
8. William Howard Taft
9. Franklin D. Roosevelt
10. John F. Kennedy
11. George W. Bush

Meanwhile, NPR has an interesting article on President Obama – and him trying to “Polish his regular guy image with beer”. 

I’ve noticed this for some time, and he has the perfect rival to pit himself against – Mitt Romney, a devout Mormon who doesn’t drink.  Now, I really dont think the President is all about beer – and that this is all grandstanding – but at least it got the White House Beer Recipe released.

Happy Constitution Day to everyone – and long live America.

Cheers -
