The President of the United States - Online

The Web is great for finding all sorts of fun stuff, not the least of which is tracking the President's activities. Here's a few interesting Web sites that I've come across today:
  • Press Conference of the President: This is the most recent press conference; it's in transcript form with questions from reporters being asked and answered, very interesting.
  • WhiteHouseTapes: "Between 1940 and 1973, six American presidents from both political parties secretly recorded just under 5,000 hours of conversations. This site is designed as a service to the research community by making freely available all of the presidential recordings, along with relevant research materials, so that scholars, teachers, students, and the public can hear and use these remarkable tapes for themselves."
  • Presidential Diseases: "Find out what diseases you have in common with the leaders of the free world!"
  • Hiring a President: What kind of skills would you look for if you were to hire a President?
  • President Bush's Radio Addresses by Date and Topic: also available to subscribe to via RSS.
  • Quotes from Either President Bush or Emperor Palpatine?: Pick which one made the quote; you might be surprised!
  • The American Presidency: Information from five different encyclopedias about the American Presidency.
  • A Private View of George Bush: Fascinating photo essay that gives you a bit of the "day in the life" of the President.
