The Great Pennsylvanian Presidential Posse: A Surprisingly Short List (Don't Worry, We Made Up for It with Cheese Steaks)
Ah, Pennsylvania. Land of liberty bells, cheesesteaks that could feed a family of four, and, well... not a whole lot of presidents, surprisingly. That's right, folks, when it comes to chief executives hailing from the Keystone State, we're talking about a select group, a connoisseur's club.

But Seriously, How Many?
Now, before you start questioning the birthplace of every politician you've ever seen sporting a Phillies hat, the answer is two. That's right, a measly two. We're talking about James Buchanan (the only bachelor prez ever) and Joe Biden (the Scranton Strangler... just kidding, Scranton native).
Tip: Summarize each section in your own words.
Wait, what about all those other famous Pennsylvanians?
QuickTip: Ask yourself what the author is trying to say.
Great question! We're a state brimming with influential figures. We gave the world Andrew Carnegie (steel baron extraordinaire) and Will Smith (the Fresh Prince himself). But for some reason, the Oval Office just hasn't been calling many Pennsylvanian names.
Tip: Highlight what feels important.
Is Pennsylvania cursed?
Tip: Focus on one point at a time.

Absolutely not! We've got other things going for us, like, you know, soft pretzels and stunning mountain ranges. Besides, two presidents is nothing to scoff at. Quality over quantity, right?
The Future of Pennsylvania's Presidential Prospects
Who knows what the future holds? Maybe we'll have a presidential candidate emerge from the rolling hills of Amish country, or perhaps a political powerhouse will rise from the streets of Philly. One thing's for sure, Pennsylvania will keep churning out great leaders, even if the White House hasn't exactly been knocking down our door lately.
