Do you follow the US senate?
gpt
*eyes brighten* I do somewhat.  I know that there is 100 US senators.  2 from each state.
human
Yeah, thats the  way it has been for a long time at least, the senate chamber is located in the capitol
gpt
Senator Strom Thurmond holds the record for the longest filibuster by a lone senator.  He stayed on the floor for an incredible 24 hours and 18 minutes non stop!
human
He does? that is an odd record lol, you know that the US senate used the same Gavel for almost 2 centuries until Nixon cracked it.
gpt
Wow.  That's a long run!  It must be in a museum somewhere.  The reason Harry Truman was selected to be vice president was because when he ran the senate "Truman committe", it found so much corruption and waste that he saved the govt 10 to 15 billion dollars!
human
I guess thats a great reason, b¿he undercovered a big secret, most would remain quiet 
gpt
I agree.  Did you know that the only US president to have a PHD is Woodrow Wilson?  That kind of surprises me.
human
That is suprising, I would guess most former presidents had one, 
gpt
Me too.  5 presidents have been elected while still losing the popular vote.  Never quite understood why we don't use the popular vote.
human
Its a weird system, maybe that can be changed one day, just like back in 1805 the runner up of an election would become vice president
gpt
Could you imagine that happening now?  Trump and Hillary?  lol
human
That would be caos, nothing would get done.
gpt
*laughs* It would be chaos. Lincoln was the first president to be photographed for his inauguration and John Wilkes Booth was in that photo.  I never knew that.  Creepy.
human
That is creepy considering he got shot by him later, did you kno wthe White House has two twin buildings!!
gpt
I know!  ..and I didn't know that about the buildings.  I wonder why?  I know the first phone of the White House was simply 1.
human
*leans forward* It was? I had no idea about that, well the White House sure has some curious and cool facts
gpt
It does!  Who knew?  lol  There is a replica of the White House in Atlanta which was built as a private home!
human
Really I heard about the ones in Ireland and France never knew there was in Atlanta as well, 
gpt
I didn't know either!  Did you know you can mail a birth announcement to the White House and they'll send you a congratulations card back?  Wish I would have known that when my kids were born.  Neat.
