US Presidents: Delighted Leadership plays vital role

Everyone will agree with this comment of time that the United States of America (USA) has been ruling the world unilaterally without facing any bar on implementation of his decision. Here, the decision of American Senate and Congress is a must to be realized in any place of the world. However this uni-power circle can be harmful for all of the world including American people also. 

So, balance in US decision will ensure stability and balance over the world, it is believed by the conscious people no doubt. Chiefly, the decision making depends on empowered political party's commitment of US. Extremism is hatred for all. The theme mainly works as mandate achieving factor in all democratic decisions in all time in America. True picture of election is not altered there.

On this very reality of world politics American Presidents and their policies are very important to the effect of the whole world and it is interesting to be informed about the world ruler for the people thinking for a safe, valuable and sustainable world.

The list of American Presidents includes only those persons who were sworn into office as president following the ratification of the United States Constitution, which took effect on March 4, 1789. The list does not include any Acting Presidents under the Twenty-fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution.

There have been forty-three people sworn into office and forty-four presidencies, due to the fact that Grover Cleveland served two non-consecutive terms and is counted chronologically as both the twenty-second and the twenty-fourth president. 

Of the 43 elected presidents of US, four died in office of natural causes include William Henry Harrison, Zachary Taylor, Warren G. Harding and Franklin D. Roosevelt. 

One of the presidents resigned he is Richard Nixon and four were assassinated whose name are Abraham Lincoln, James A. Garfield, William McKinley and John F. Kennedy. 

The first president was George Washington, who was inaugurated in 1789 after a unanimous Electoral College vote. 

William Henry Harrison spent the shortest time in office at 31 days in 1841. At over twelve years, Franklin D. Roosevelt spent the longest time in office and is the only president to serve more than two terms and died shortly into his fourth term in 1945. 

The current president is Barack Obama who assumed the office on January 20, 2009. He is the first president of African American descent. He is also the first president born outside the Contiguous United States, having been born in Hawaii.

Under the U.S. Constitution, the President of the United States is the head of state and the head of government of the United States. As chief of the executive branch and head of the federal government as a whole, the presidency is the highest political office in the United States by influence and recognition.
