The Huffington Post has a piece on the favorite books/authors of 11 Presidents. Thomas Jefferson enjoyed the works of Cicero, Lincoln read Shakespeare, JFK's tastes ran from Stendhal to Ian Fleming, and Ronnie Raygun liked the novels of Edgar Rice Burroughs ("Me Ronnie, you Nancy"). It's hard to know what Dumbya really read, since his handlers continuously tried to sell a fake image of him as an intelligent man, much to everyone's amusement. Some guesses: "Presidentin' For Dummies," "Readers Digest's Favorite Jokes," or "My Plan for a Prosperous America, by Herbert Hoover."
