rdfs:comment
  • Alfred "Alf" Mossman Landon (September 9, 1887 - October 12, 1987) was the 28th President of the United States of America, serving from 1937-1941. Elected at the height of Nationalist popularity in the middle of the US's strongest period of economic growth in history, Landon failed to sustain his predecessor's popularity and presided over the end of the economic boom during the early stages of the 1939-41 recession. Before the Presidency, Landon was the Governor of Kansas from 1933-1936. Landon had the longest post-Presidency of any President in history at forty-six years, and lived to be 100 years old, older than any other President living or dead.
