Seeing as I didn't have time to post a question yesterday I think two questions today will be in order
1 - Which four U.S. presidents never held elective office before being voted into the nation's top job?
2 - What animal noise - slowed down - was used to simulate the sound of the tornado in the 1996 film Twister?

some cheating here:
John Tyler - Assumed the Presidency on the death of William Henry Harrison, did not run in the 1844 election
Millard Fillmore - Succeeded Zachary Taylor, did not run in the 1852 election
Fillmore did run for President in the 1856 election as a Know Nothing Party candidate and received 873,053 votes (21.6%), finishing third
Andrew Johnson - Succeeded Abraham Lincoln, did not run in the 1868 election
Chester A. Arthur - Succeeded James Garfield, did not run in the 1884 election
had to peep at :mrg:
Hope it is correct!

The first question was a horrid one I think, but at least it means I get to start off with a :cheer:
Zachary Taylor, Ulysses S. Grant, Herbert Hoover, and Dwight D. Eisenhower is the answer.

The statue commemorates his 1753 mission, as a major in the militia of the British colony of Virginia, to Fort Le Boeuf in Pennsylvania to demand that the French withdraw from the Ohio territory. It's the only statue of Washington in a British uniform.
