But what marked {him} as a failure is the abiding sense that he was simply out of his depth in the White House. He loved playing poker and womanizing, but was less interested in running the country. His cabinet and official appointments included a large coterie of old pals including several of his relatives. Many of these people made personal fortunes from taking bribes and astonished congressmen and worldly Washington journalists alike by their ignorance of the responsibilities of the offices they held. The most egregious scandal of {his} administration involved the corrupt sale of licences to drill for oil on public lands.

It would be the number of baby's deaths. The actually death rate of the mothers in 1950s to 1960s was approx 300-200 annually. Still too many but certainly not 1.2 Million. less
