    Today was my daughters 16th birthday. Took the family out to dinner and then shopping afterwards. She is taking her drivers test on Friday. Good day!

    Glad to hear you are feeling better.

    So you're saying those before Van Buren were born in the United State territory while still part of the British Empire and Van Buren was born after the Revolutionary War making him the first U.S. born President. Have I got that right?
