In a 1960 Pogo comic strip by Walt Kelly, Fremount's mother explains to Pogo some ambitious plans for taking over the White House and then actually moving the executive mansion. The 1960 Presidential election was Nixon vs. Kennedy, but as far as I'm aware neither of them proposed moving the White House to the Riviera.
