Mustached President

Mustached President

Dover, Delaware, May 30, 2008:

In a nod to Ron's love of reenacting Civil War events, W. Reily Brown Elementary pupil Zack Windsor, 10, dressed up as Union Gen. Ulysses S. Grant on Thursday. The costume was for the school's outdoor history lesson and political awareness rally. Students dressed up as current and historical political figures and then gave talks about themselves in a historic context. Grant was elected the 18th president of the United States, and served two terms -- from March 4, 1869 to March 4, 1877. Ron is hoping to be elected president this November.

When asked to comment on the New Jersey politician's current run for the White House, Windsor said he thought Ron's mustache was "cool" and that he'd "vote for him if [he] was old enough."
