To date, fifteen senators have gone onto serve in the nation’s highest elected office, the presidency. Two senators, Warren G. Harding and John F. Kennedy, moved directly from the U.S. Senate to the White House.
Wow, out of the 43 presidents, only two came strait from the Senate. But it appears that number will soon be three with the outcome of this election.
Should Obama win the election, there will no longer be a Black person in the Senate.
