At least seven United States presidents were born in log cabins, including Andrew Jackson, James K. Polk, Millard Fillmore, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, Abraham Lincoln, and James A. Garfield.
See, this is where manipulating statistics, or at least how you report them, can trick you. You could say there’s a 1 in 46 chance of a president raised in a log cabin, but that ignores all the other people who were raised in log cabins and did not become president.
Maybe it is more complicated than just being born in a log cabin. You should of asked, currently what are the odds that somebody born out of a bird’s egg has become president? Anybody, got the stats?
Whenever I get a new boss in a job, instead of giving him or her my resume I send a copy of my two-page biography.
It starts with the words, “Born in a humble log cabin in Brooklyn, New York, I studied electrical engineering by the fireside. I grew up, became an Air Force pilot, got married had two sons (in that order). …”
As President Woodstock would employ Snoopy as his speech writer. I can here it now, "My fellow American, The last car drove away. It began to rain. And so our hero’s life ended as it had begun, a disaster.
‘I never got any breaks.’ he had always complained.
He wanted to be rich. He died poor. He wanted friends. He died friendless.
He wanted to be loved. He died unloved. He wanted laughter. He found only tears.
He wanted applause. He received boos. He wanted fame. He found obscurity.
He wanted answers. He found only questions."
Yet people wonder why Snoopy got all of those rejection letters.
There was a stretch of fifty-two years when seven out of fourteen presidents were allegedly born in log cabins. Eleven of those fourteen won elections; the other three were accidentals. One of the three accidentals was cabin-born.
According to my (infallible) research, the last US president to have lived at least part of his life in a log cabin was James Garfield. So it’s been well over a century since any log cabin president has been elected.

What does living in log cabins have to do with becoming a future war criminal?

Seeing as Woodstock lives on his own (he cannot even find his mom anymore), it is too late for him to be raised in a log cabin.

The “log cabin” in the tree is very inventive! It should give some home builders some ideas.

Well, they would be native-born, but I doubt they would reach 35 years of age.

Log cabin Woodstock, not log nest. Though to be honest, a bird might do a great job at this rate.
