A look at the queen's history-making visits with American presidents

The official celebration of Queen Elizabeth II's 95th birthday kicks off on June 12 as she prepares to mark 70 years on the throne. But there's another remarkable number she can boast about – in her long reign, she's likely met more U.S. presidents than anyone else alive today.

Each weekday morning, "CBS This Morning" co-hosts Gayle King, Anthony Mason and Tony Dokoupil deliver two hours of original reporting, breaking news and top-level newsmaker interviews in an engaging and informative format that challenges the norm in network morning news programs.

She's absolutely wonderful. I remember watching her very first official speech when she turned 21 in 1947 on YouTube, incredibly powerful speech and she OWNED it like a badass. Happy Birthday to HRM. Long live the Queen!

My mum is in her 80s now and was in her early teens when the Queen ascended the throne, she spoke of all the excitement surrounding her glittering coronation in 1953. She also remembers singing “God save the King.”

I saw the Queen and her Family in the early 50's in Jamaica always with grace even Winston Churchill.

The Queen most beloved person on earth. Well-respected all over the world ❤️❤️

Queen Elizabeth II graciously did her duty to her country and President Joe Biden and Dr Jill Biden reflect the same dignity and grace representing the US

Can you imagine the amount of knowledge she has ? Has she written memoirs ? I'll bet she could instill proper manners to a 10yr old in an afternoon, with very few words involved .

Apparently the Queen was fond of the Obamas. If you remember Michelle Obama put a hand in the Queen's back and the Queen was happy with that.

Matthew 6:22
The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

If you're wondering why the Queen never met LBJ, here it is: He was sick with the flu and bronchitis and hospitalized for 3 1/2 days when Winston Churchill died. But he very much wanted to lead he U.S. delegation to the funeral (LBJ, De Gaulle, and Kosygin were the only leaders allowed to lead or send delegations of three representatives to the Churchill funeral; the U.S., France, and the Soviet Union were Britain's chief wartime allies) and asked that he wait for the doctors to act. But he made the necessary arrangements and also secured a private meeting with the Queen at Buckingham Palace after the funeral. But when his doctors acted, they barred him from going, saying he hadn't recovered fully. Secretary of State Dean Rusk led the delegation in his place, but after the funeral, he was criticized, both in both Britain and elsewhere abroad and at home for the absence of Hubert Humphrey. He told a press conference that not sending the new vice president was a "mistake."
