Q: Name a famous American singer, one who's living. Six letters in the first name, six letters in the last. Write out this name from left to right. Cross out six consecutive letters from inside the name, leaving the start and end intact. The result will be the six-letter last name of a U.S. president. Name the singer and the president.This one is really easy. All you need to do is get a list of presidents and find the ones with 6-letter last names (there are only 9).
Edit: So did you get the correct answer?
A: WIL(LIE NEL)SON --> Woodrow WILSON
