free verse from the Oval


I wondered what is the proper way to address former U.S. presidents:  Google tells us, "All U.S. presidents retain their title for life, so all former presidents are referred to as Mr. President or President [last name]."

So we have

President Trump

President Obama

President Bush (George W.)

President Clinton

President Bush (George Herbert Walker), and

President Carter

(living presidents).
