Who was the first left-handed U.S. president to serve two terms?

Think that would have to be Harry Truman, 33rd president, 1945-1953.

And did you know that the last 4 presidents have been left handed as well? Reagan, Bush, Clinton, and Bush Jr.

My source indicated that the correct answer was Bill Clinton. (See source here.) Where did you find your answer?

Isn't 2 terms 8 years??? I dont have a source other than knowing Truman ran for 8 years and he is on many famous lefty lists. I just put 2 and 2 together. Left Handed Presidents

Truman only ran for President once, in 1948. In 1944, he ran as FDR's VP candidate. WHen FDR died, Truman became President. Thus, Truman did not serve 2 FULL terms, but he did have 2 terms. . The question isn't really clear on exactly what serving two terms means.

MkStfnz - I saw at least 2 errors on that page you list as a source. The author also shows a lack of understanding of the election of 1820, one that would easily be cleared up by consulting any of a multitude of almanacs available.

Thanks for the explanation DG. I guess you remember the circumstances behind Truman's election because you were there
Politics is not my thing, I just happen to use a ruler at work that has the presidents listed and the years they served. So I made an "assumption"
