	Warren G. Harding - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Warren Gamaliel Harding (November 2, 1865– August 2, 1923) was an American politician and the 29th President of the United States, serving from 1921 to 1923, when he became the sixth president to die in office.
		Harding ran on a promise to "Return to Normalcy," a term he coined, which reflected three trends of his time: a renewed isolationism in reaction to World War I, a resurgence of nativism, and a turning away from the government activism of the reform era.
		Harding was entombed in the receiving vault of the Marion Cemetery, Marion, Ohio, in August 1923.
