Often Compared To
Calvin Coolidge
#2President / Republican — Plymouth Notch, Vermont · 1923–1929
'Silent Cal' — the most laconic president in history spoke so few words that people invented parlor games around it. Coolidge's hands-off economic policies produced the Roaring Twenties boom but set up the conditions for the 1929 crash he was lucky enough to exit before.
Chester A. Arthur
#3President / Republican — Fairfield, Vermont · 1881–1885
The machine politician who became a reformer — Arthur was put on the ticket as a favor to Roscoe Conkling's New York patronage machine, then shocked everyone by signing the Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act and destroying the spoils system that created him.
