As a public service, here are the opening lines to some of the greatest presidential memoirs:
Ulysses S. Grant: "My family is American, and has been for generations, in all its branches, direct and collateral."
Harry S Truman: "During the first few weeks of Franklin Delano Roosevelt's fourth administration, I saw what the long years of the presidency had done to him."
Richard M. Nixon: "I was born in a house my father built."
Jimmy Carter: "I had not been to bed since early Sunday morning, and I was discouraged and almost exhausted."
William Jefferson Clinton: "I never thought I would someday be writing a letter like this to Penthouse Forum, but a few years ago I met a young intern at the office."
