11th President of the United States (1921-1923)

Warren G. Harding (November 2, 1865 – August 2, 1923) was the 29th President of the United States. Warren Harding won the election by 61% of the popular vote with the campaign promise: "Less government in business and more business in government." While Harding was in office, he opposed U.S. entry into the League of Nations; he pardoned war protestor Eugene Debs; he signed an agreement to limit arms with key nations. Harding’s appointees were involved in many scandals; the most notable being the Teapot Dome Scandal. Harding died in office from a heart attack on August 2, 1923.
