Will vote for a president that provides 1,400 lbs of Manchego

[White House History @WhiteHouseHstry]

Most people can’t say they’ve received a 1,400 lb cheese wheel as a gift, but President Andrew Jackson is an exception! In 1835, a New York dairy farmer sent him a wheel of cheese that he left to age for two years in the Entrance Hall of the White House.

About a third of workers in the country’s 10 highest-paying occupations (35%) are women – up from 13% in 1980. Despite these gains, women are still the minority in nine of these jobs. Pharmacists are the exception: 61% are women. https://t.co/sOWtF9CW6A

#OTD in #History, 1951, the 22nd Amendment was ratified, limiting the #POTUS to two 4-year terms. Calls for term limits dated back to even before the ratification of the #USConstitution, but it was the historic 3rd and 4th elections of #FDR that finally prompted #Congress to act.
