It takes historic hubris to do this, but President Obama has remarkably
added his accomplishments-did you even know he had any?-to the official
biographies of nearly every president of the 20th Century on the White
House's website, www.whitehouse.gov.

Our president has been inserted into the bio of every other president from
Calvin Coolidge to Bill Clinton, except Gerald Ford. Don't know why Ford was
skipped, but no bio yet exists for George W. Bush so Obama wasn't able
pencil in how he is heroically continuing to work to overturn the economic
mess created by his immediate predecessor.

He's right in there with about all the rest of his predecessors from 1923 to
2000, however. Here are some excerpts:

On Feb. 22, 1924 Calvin Coolidge became the first president to make a public
radio address to the American people. President Coolidge later helped create
the Federal Radio Commission, which has now evolved to become the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC). President Obama became the first president
to hold virtual gatherings and town halls using Twitter,Facebook, Google+,
LinkedIn, etc.

On August 14, 1935, President Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act.
Today the Obama administration continues to protect seniors and ensure
Social Security will be there forfuture generations.

In a 1946 letter to the National Urban League, President Truman wrote that
the government has "an obligation to see that the civil rights of every
citizen are fully and equally protected." He ended racial segregation in
civil service and the armed forces in 1948. Today the Obama Administration
continues to strive toward upholding the civil rights of its
citizens,repealing Don't Ask Don't Tell, allowing people of all sexual
orientations to serve openly in our armed forces.

President John F. Kennedy famously suggested the American people: "Ask what
you can do for your country." In 1961, the Peace Corps was created,
facilitating service among citizens working toward peace in developing
countries. In 2011, President Obama celebrated the 50th anniversary of the
Peace Corps with a Presidential Proclamation.

In a June 28, 1985 speech Reagan called for a fairer tax code, one where a
multi-millionaire did not have a lower tax rate than his secretary. Today,
President Obama is calling for the same with the Buffett Rule.
