Talk:List of United States presidential vetoes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Does FDR hold the record?
Surely there are some other Presidential vetoes interesting enough to worth noting.
Nixon is shown as having more vetoes overridden that he actually made? This cannot possibly be right
Also, if someone wants to do the research (I'm a Brit so I don't know where to find this stuff) it would be interesting to know why the Presidents with lots of vetoes had so many - unless it is just facing a Congress controlled by the other party. Jonathan 21:23, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
I haven't checked all the other vetoes, but the chart listed 0-0-0-0 vetoes for Theodore Roosevelt. The listing at the US Senate reference desk site listed 42-40-82-0.
There are some problems with this list. Not only have there been changes made to the numbers without citing sources, the totals at the top of the columns no longer even reflect the numbers in those columns. I'm going to put a factual accuracy tag at the top of the page. NoIdeaNick 07:29, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
