The U.S. Vice President That Wrote a #1 Hit Song
The 30th Vice President of the United States, Charles Gates Dawes, also won a Nobel Peace Prize in 1925 and was a self-taught pianist and composer who composed the 1912 hit song, "Melody in A Major," which was eventually used in Tommy Edwards' 1958 #1 hit (for a then record six weeks) "It's All in the Game."
