While traveling the country the last few years, I accidentally became a nationally renowned expert on the United States presidents. I didn't mean for it to happen, but if you visit enough historic sites eventually you're going to be an expert on something. Just like your mom warned you.
As a nationally renowned expert, it's my moral obligation to share my knowledge with you, whether you like it or not. I have write-ups of every presidential thing I've visited, sorted by president. Use the links running down the right-hand side of the page to get the details. So far I've visited something for every dead president except Nixon and Reagan. The overall totals:
37 presidents with at least one site seen
33 gravesites visited
26 birthplaces visited
33 homes visited
... plus lots of other crap, like the White House. You're totally impressed, right?

And there's more! Back in 2009 I was named a web columnist for "columnist" for McSweeneys.net. "Chris White Answers Profound Questions About the Presidents" ran for a year, and now I still contribute occasionally to the site. Here's a list of everything they've published thus far.
And who could forget the White History Project. Our motto is "Education Through Speculation," and our primary means of educating is Internet videos about the presidents. Get your learn on using the links below:
