how many united states presidents are left handed
There have been eight left-handed presidents that we know of. However, this number is not necessarily accurate because in the past left-handedness was actively discouraged. Many individuals who would have grown up left-handed were in fact forced to learn how to write with their right hand. And, if recent history is any indication, left-handedness seems to be far more common among U.S. presidents than it is among the general population.
