  Warren G. Harding - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Harding was a Freemason, raised to the Sublime Degree of a Master Mason on August 27, 1920, in Marion Lodge #70, F.and A.M., in Marion, Ohio.
Harding also believed in the clear separation of powers; that it was the Congress that was responsible for legislation, and it was Harding’s duty to ensure that it was signed into law.
Harding's detractors began using the damaging rumor of his alleged African-American ancestry against him in the 1880s, claiming that Harding was "tainted by colored blood." Although this would not be considered a "scandal" in current times, it was so at the time.

In 1920, Harding was nominated for the presidency, largely through the efforts of a group of Senators, after successive balloting for Gen. Leonard Wood and Frank O. Lowden had deadlocked the Republican convention.
Harding, conscious of his own limitations, had promised to rely on a cabinet of "best minds," but unfortunately he chose—along with more capable advisers—men who lacked any sense of public responsibility.
