How to Fight Presidents: Defending Yourself Against the Badasses Who Ran This Country

Make no mistake: Our founding fathers were more bandanas-and-muscles than powdered-wigs-and-tea. As a prisoner of war, Andrew Jackson walked several miles barefoot across state lines while suffering from smallpox and a serious head wound received when he refused to polish the boots of the soldiers who had taken him captive. He was thirteen years old. A few decades later, he became the first popularly elected president and served the nation, pausing briefly only to beat a would-be assassin with a cane to within an inch of his life. Theodore Roosevelt had asthma, was blind in one eye, survived multiple gunshot wounds, had only one regret (that there were...

More About How to Fight Presidents: Defending Yourself Against the Badasses Who Ran This Country

Martin Van Buren was a shitty guy. Not just because he was a bad president, and not just because he was pro-slavery. Van Buren was shitty in a very general sort of way. And with all that that implies. Daniel O'Brien, How to Fight Presidents: Defending Yourself Against the Badasses Who Ran This Country // At the age of eight, John Quincy Adams was made the man of his house while his father, John Adams, was off doing important John Adams things for America. This would be a lot of terrifying responsibility at any time in American history, but it just so happens that, when Adams was eight years old, the *Revolutionary freaking War* was happening right outside his house. He watched the Battle of Bunker Hill from his front porch, according to his diary, worried that he might be 'butchered in cold blood, or taken and carried ... as hostages by any foraging... Between his dueling and military career, Jackson had been shot so many times that scholars says he "rattled like a bag of marbles" when he walked as a result of all of the never-removed bullets taking up residence in his body. The pieces of shrapnel he carries around like internal medals of honor are about ten times larger than your balls and infinity times as armored. Daniel O'Brien, How to Fight Presidents: Defending Yourself Against the Badasses Who Ran This Country //

Funny but dumbThis book is funny but the theme gets old. The writing is a bit juvenile, lots of cussing. To be fair the book was written by a writer from Cracked magazine so don't take it to seriously.. Also he forgot to write about Jimmy Carter and all Presidents after Reagan. So if they come to Fight you don't have a strategy. Lol..... I went into this one knowing it's irreverent with random historical facts thrown in. It was sexist, assuming the reader is a guy (which royally pissed me off) and everything negative meant taking on effeminate characteristics. And of those presidents where I've read about or studied them, the facts (real, not the jokes) were occasionally... Very funny and informative. I now understand there are very few dead presidents I could beat in a fight.
