Presidential Mullet

James Polk

The top Presidential mullet of all time has to be the thing that appears to be attacking the back of James K. Polk’s neck. Clearly a trendsetter, Polk made the move for the mullet about 150 years before it became the hot style of the 1970’s. Polk’s many other amazing feats included, …, uh, being elected President, I guess. Maybe he did other amazing stuff that rivals the invention of the mullet, but I was apparently absent from school the day they must have checked Polk off the list.

I discovered the majesty that was Polk’s stunning, keratinous mop while browsing through the beauties at Rate My Mullet. While Rate My Mullet has a nice array of mullets, my favorite site for juicy mullets is still the classic Mullets Galore.

    Take it from the band “They Might Be Giants” — this guy was a winner…

    James K Polk by They Might Be Giants

    In 1844, the Democrats were split
    The three nominees for the presidential candidate
    Were Martin Van Buren, a former president and an abolitionist
    James Buchanan, a moderate
    Louis Cass, a general and expansionist
    From Nashville came a dark horse riding up
    He was James K. Polk, Napoleon of the Stump
    Austere, severe, he held few people dear
    His oratory filled his foes with fear
    The factions soon agreed
    He’s just the man we need
    To bring about victory
    Fulfill our manifest destiny
    And annex the land the Mexicans command
    And when the vote was cast the winner was
    Mister James K. Polk, Napoleon of the Stump
    In four short years he met his every goal
    He seized the whole southwest from Mexico
    Made sure the tarriffs fell
    And made the English sell the Oregon territory
    He built an independent treasury
    Having done all this he sought no second term
    But precious few have mourned the passing of
    Mister James K. Polk, our eleventh president
    Young Hickory, Napoleon of the Stump
