The 1987 White House Correspondents Association Dinner..... The earliest Correspondents dinner seen or heard on C-SPAN.... Here's a joke - from President Ronald Reagan ... You know, of course, that we're just back from California. We introduced Howard Baker to ranch life. We put him in the saddle, and he really took to it. He told me he'd never been so excited by anything, that just sitting in that saddle made his heart race. Next time we're going to put the saddle on a horse. But a lot happened while we were gone. Texaco declared bankruptcy, Senator Simon declared for the Presidency, Gary Hart did both. This weekend, President Donald Trump is making his first ever speaking appearance at the correspondents dinner ...In the latest episode of C-SPAN's podcast "Extreme Mortman," we hear jokes told at the dinner by each prior president seen and heard on C-SPAN - Ronald Reagan through Joe Biden .. One president, one joke. Which presidential jokes were the best? Or the funniest? Or the most memorable? Which president — according to official government stats -- holds the record for scoring the most joke laughter in one dinner? And why is our special guest for this podcast, Tamara Keith of NPR?
