The Checkers speech was made on September 23, 1952, by Sen.

Before the US Constitution defined the role of the President as the chief executive, fourteen men filled the role of President in Congress Assembled. Though initially an informal parliamentary role during the First Continental Congress, with the gravitas of war and then a Declaration of Independence, the role became more consequential with the Second Continental Congress. Then, the Articles of Confederation made it official, albeit still weak. However, the learnings from this role led to the Founders improving the position, preparing it for George Washington in the post-Constitution era.
