This obituary is for our largest president, William Howard Taft. Taft was born in Cincinnati,Ohio on September 15, 1857. He died on May 8th, 1930. He had a degree in law and he was a great polititian. At one time he was the govener of the Phillipines and he helped the Phillipines get protection from the U.S. Taft than became the secretary of war for the U.S then he eventually became 27th president of the United States. One of his greatest achivements is that he made was that he created the progressive political party. This party is still used in today's politics. REST IN PEACE BIG BOY :(
