James A. Garfield

otie

He favored the reformers because of their stance on the civil service reform. Garfield thought that civil service reform was necessary in the American government during his presidency.

Garfield did't veto any bills and pushed the million war bill...for almost a million dollars to states? O.o 6 months of tenure didn't show much? But he didn't show any bills signed in his tenure? Or am I not educated enough upon that?

Yes. Garfield lived in these Ohio towns.

He was an ardent member of the Disciples of Christ. As a student at Williams College he was something of a zealot and did some lay preaching. Later he attracted attention for debating an atheist on the pro-God side in a series of debates.

James A. Garfield (November 19, 1831 - September 19, 1881) was a politican in the Republican party. He served nine terms in the U.S. House of Representatives (1863-1880), then became the 20th President of the United States in 1881.

It was about 2-3 inches.

N- he was not. About all he had time to do before he was killed was to stand up to the stalwarts boss. His running mate, Arthur, had ties with the Stalwarts , and was added to the ticket for their benefit, but when he became president, he turned out to be his own man.

They were all US Presidential assassains.

he was killed because charels came over to Washington to get a governmentjob but Garfield rufused to give him a government job then a day later he was shot. after sevral weeks of sufering James abram Garfield died........

Mary "Mollie" Garfield Stanley-Brown, daughter of President James Garfield, died on November 30,1947 , age 80, at Pasadena, California.

because Charles Guiteau was an insane looney. He was mad at the president for not giving him a higher rank. Charles thought that he helped Garfield win the election of 1880.

No, he does not like anchovies (especially on Pizza)

Guiteau probably hoped to achieve nothing except the President's death. His anger at not being appointed to a job as council to Paris appears to be his only motivation and he made no effort to eluded arrest.

He was a active member of the Disciples of Christ. While in college he did some lay preaching.

Guiteau was a mentally deranged person who believed he had earned a job under the "spoils system" and was bitterly disappointed when he did not get an appointment.

James Garfield, the 20th President of the United States, stood for civil service reform, advocating for a merit-based system over the patronage system that dominated politics of his time. He was also a strong supporter of education and believed in the importance of higher education for all citizens. Additionally, Garfield was a proponent of economic modernization and infrastructure development, aiming to enhance the nation's industrial capabilities. His presidency, though cut short by assassination, reflected a commitment to progress and integrity in government.

This is a persistent historical myth. There is NO evidence that Garfield could write Greek with one hand and Latin in the other simultaneously.

Garfield was from Ohio and lived there all of life.
