Yup... your turn to ask a question, but... I also have an interesting one... Who were the only two presidents to be succeeded by their fathers? (i.e. their father's outlived them)

Though you asked before I could post....

I am a little confused by your question, there are only two presidents who had fathers who were also presidents and each of them succeeded their respective fathers. John Adams/John Quincy Adams and George HW Bush/George W Bush

or if you are asking which presidents had fathers that outlived them (Which what I think you are asking....)

I could only find one so far....

JFK's father Joesph P. Kennedy died in 1969

Yes, hehe, I meant outlived them.

The second is Harding's father... Harding died in 1923, his father died in 1928

Go ahead, ask your question

Rats! I knew Adams & Taft, but couldn't think of Johnson.

But the gambler was Harding!
