While President, he was responsible for making conditions in factories better for workers. Taft didn't want to be President as muc has he longed to be Chief Justice of the Supreme Court which is exactlywhat he became some years after he left office. He was much happier as a judge than as President." On Line Lesson Plans: William Howard Taft from TeacherVision

Extractions: Distinguished jurist, effective administrator, but poor politician, William Howard Taft spent four uncomfortable years in the White House. Large, jovial, conscientious, he was caught in the intense battles between Progressives and conservatives, and got scant credit for the achievements of his administration. Born in 1857, the son of a distinguished judge, he was graduated from Yale, and returned to Cincinnati to study and practice law. He rose in politics through Republican judiciary appointments, through his own competence and availability, and because, as he once wrote facetiously, he always had his "plate the right side up when offices were falling." But Taft much preferred law to politics. He was appointed a Federal circuit judge at 34. He aspired to be a member of the Supreme Court, but his wife, Helen Herron Taft, held other ambitions for him.

Extractions: T he inaugural volume of The Collected Works of William Howard Taft is composed of two of his earliest books, Four Aspects of Civic Duty and Present Day Problems Based on a series of lectures delivered at Yale in 1906, Four Aspects of Civic Duty is an attempt by then Secretary of War Taft to bring to the attention of his audience the importance of civic duty from the perspective of the university graduate, the judge on the bench, the colonial administrator, and the national executive branch of government. His remarks were drawn from his own experience, while at the same time he laid down the principles of citizenship with which all people could identify.

You can read Condon's article here . I view Clinton as a 9 with an unusually pronounced connection to 3. 1. 9s and 6s are the most common presidential types Depending on whether you count Clinton, there were either four or five type 9 presidents in the 20th century: Harding, Eisenhower, Ford, Reagan, and perhaps Clinton. There were also four type 6 presidents in the 20th century: Taft, Truman, Nixon, and George H. W. Bush. The high prevalence of 9s and 6s is surprising, as leaders are often assumed to be overwhelmingly aggressive types such as 8s and 3s. Have 9s and 6s been good presidents? On average, these presidents have been ... well ... average. Harry Truman is the underdog hero among this list. Eisenhower and Reagan have been relatively well-regarded by historians, but neither ranks among our country's "greats". Warren Harding is regarded by historians as one of our worst presidents ever, because he neglected substantial corruption within his administration. Clinton's historical role will be debated for a long time to come, but so far the reviews are mixed - he managed the economy fairly well, and stymied the right-wing onslaught that was unleashed after his presidency. However, Clinton's self-discipline problems probably led to many lost opportunities.

Four Presidents Who Were Unitarians His son, Senator Robert taft, a candidate for president in 1952, was not raised asa Unitarian, but in the william howard taft. Particularly the history page http://www.mind.net/dlmark/4pres.htm
Extractions: John Adams, first of the four presidents who were Unitarians, was on-and-off friends with Thomas Jefferson, who had Unitarian leanings, but was not a member. Learned and thoughtful, John Adams was remarkable as a political philosopher and was one of the indispensable founders of our nation. Prior to serving as President, Adams was a delegate to the Continental Congress, a diplomat, and Vice President under George Washington. John Adams had studied for the ministry, but came to believe that government service would be more exciting. John Quincy Adams was the only President who was the son of a President. As a boy, his mother had told him that some day the state would rest upon his shoulders. It did not rest lightly. Never publicly popular, often reviled by his political enemies, he nevertheless ended his life in the sunshine of national esteem. The presidency was only one of his careers, sandwiched between being a successful diplomat and Secretary of State, and, after the interlude of being President, an equally successful tenure as a Congressman who opposed slavery. Presidents John Adams and John Quincy Adams were life-long members of First Parish Church, Quincy, Mass. Their tombs stand in a crypt within the church, beside those of their wives, Abigail and Louisa Catherine.
