Single and singularly jowly, James Buchanan served as president from 1857 to 1861. He distinguished himself by basically sitting on his ass for four years, hoping the growing North-South rift would go away on its own.
He also advocated the admission of Kansas as a slave state, when history tells us both that slavery is wrong and that Kansas should never have been admitted into the union but instead neatly excised from our land mass and cast into the ocean, wheatfields and all.
Here's to you, James Buchanan, our third in a series of lame, crappy, or boring presidents!
