    Which presidents have visited all 50 states? No one is likely to know this without googling, so let me tell you 3 of them did, and all of their presidencies started and ended in my lifetime (Sep-68 - the present)

    So go ahead and guess. Which 3 of: Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush I, Clinton, Bush II, Obama, Trump?

    If you don't take it, it can only good happen.

        @bachophile excellent analysis.

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

            Does this mean during their term, or are we including before and after?

                      @bachophile You got one out of four. A monkey picking four names out of the eight would do better, on average.

                      But I did like your reasoning….

                          My guess?

                          ***=NSFW content***

                          click to show

                          Obama - Hawaii puts him off to a good start… Plus he was very much an underdog to Clinton in 08. He had to campaign hard.

                          Nixon - The guy was a diplomat in many ways. Seemed like the kind of guy that would want to be there in person…

                          Biden - Who else would want to visit Delaware?

                          Reagan?

                              @George-K said in A little "no google" contest:

                              Wait, you mean 4 other Presidents have visited Delaware?!
