Slaves were part of the population. Are you an idiot? How could you not know that? They were included in the census. Looks like someone flunked basic history in 3rd grade.

Calvin Coolidge was called "silent Cal" for his habit of being a man of few words. Supposedly at a gala Washington dinner party a local celeb lady commandeered the president and told him that she had made a bet with someone that she could make him say more than two words. President Coolidge responded with "You loose." lol!
