Which US President was in office when YOU were born? So?

Eisenhower. I remember when I was in my first year of grade school, riding home with a friend in her father's car, hearing about the shooting of President Kennedy on the radio. I didn't understand why we couldn't go to see him in the hospital. I didn't realize that the world had just changed - forever.

JFK was in office. I was one year and nine months old when he was assasinated.

The first President I have a true recollection of was Nixon.

I was born during the Carter administration (1976), but the first political event I can remember is the Iran-Contra hearings.

I was born in '77 and had to look up which President that was because I wasn't sure. Whoops! My dad, the retired U.S. History teacher will be so proud!

The first President I remember is Reagan, which makes sense because he was President during the majority of my childhood.
