Well now that depends, as much as I like ZoSo, the Eagles Greatest hit sold more Platinum records than LZ, however LZ IV (ZoSo) sold the most of a UK band.

In May 1787, Washington headed the Virginia delegation to the Constitutional Convension in Philadelphia and was unanimously elected presiding officer. His presence lent prestige to the proceedings, and although he made few direct contributions, he generally supported the advocates of a strong central government. After the new Constitution was submitted to the states for ratification and became legally operative, he was unanimously elected president (1789).

He was elected, Gerald Ford assumed presidency after Nixon's resign...
