No Piggy Deals in Washington – Farmer Krajewski for President | The Old Motor Secaucus, New Jersey Pig Farmer Henry Krajewski, was a six-foot-four-inch tall two-hundred and fifty-pound candidate who ran for the office of the president in 1952, 1956, and 1960 as Independent Party contender. One of Krajewski’s campaign slogans was “A Pig in Every Pot” reminiscent of Herbert Hoover’s catchphrase “A Chicken in Every Pot and a Car in Every Garage” used when he ran for president and won in 1928. The lead image shows Henry and his Buick parked in Exeter, New Hampshire on May 14, 1951 while traveling on the 1952 campaign trail.

I have a photo somewhere from the 70's of me standing in front of the same wagon. I remember the trip well. It was during the summer and it was hottest place I'd ever been. We didn't run the A/C in the car for fear of overheating. It actually felt cooler driving with the windows closed.
