Left handers rule at The White House

In my last post, I mentioned that the next president of the US will be a left hander. I discovered today that Al Gore is left handed, too. So, if Dubya hadn't become president, there would have been 32 years of uninterrupted left-handed rule at The White House. Because Ford, Reagan, Bush Snr and Clinton were all left handed. Trust Bush Jnr to spoil things....

BTW, Reagan wrote with his right hand as he was forced to switch as a child (as happened regularly in those days) but he was actually a lefty. As was Winston Churchill.
