There have been 44 men to hold the office of the President of the United States since Gen. George Washington took the first oath of office in 1789 (Grover Cleveland held the office twice at different times). Out of that total number, almost half have traveled across the state lines into the State of Nebraska. They have run campaign trails and fund raising rallies in support of the Party candidates in the State, Pushed their bills and laws to the citizens of the state, and came to the peoples rescue in their time of need. Every President has had moments to remember in Nebraska since 1858, and even a few of the vice Presidents have spent time inside the hallowed boarders that make up the state known as Nebraska. 'Presidential Travels to Nebraska' will take you on a time traversing journey with some of the most well known names of men from the last 155 years, during some of the toughest times this country has ever faced. In the depths of wars fought over 150 years, to National droughts that have plagued the Mid-Western section of the Country. Publicly we have all shared in the times of tough losses and in the moments of personal triumph for these 'Leaders of the Free World'. See what you can learn about the Presidential politics in the state of Nebraska, and find out how your favorite President actually felt about the policies they have brought before the state and it’s residents. With excerpts from some of the least known speeches given to the state of Nebraska, to a chapter about Lloyd Bentsen and Dan Quayle’s televised Vice Presidential debate held in Omaha in 1988. Find out why Ronald Reagan had a secret love affair with the 'Good Life' State, and how Jack Kennedy would represent the state of Nebraska in the White House. Presidents Truman, Nixon and George HW Bush would all recognize the importance of Arbor Day, started right here in the State of Nebraska. So join us on a trip of our own through out the Presidential history of the 37th state of the Unio
