About The Presidents
Every four years, at the stroke of noon on January 20th, an incoming president raises a right hand and repeats the oath that has bound every commander-in-chief since George Washington. The White House, six floors, 132 rooms, and one very famous Oval Office, has been the executive home since John Adams moved in during the autumn of 1800. From cabinet meetings to treaty signings, from pardons granted to vetoes cast, the rhythms of the presidency have shaped the American story for more than two centuries.
