== == 1. John Hanson a Maryland representative to the Continental Congress was the first pseudo president. Civil Liberties, http://www.civilliberties.com
2. Connecticut Governor Samuel Huntington was President of the Continental Congress at the time the Articles of Confederation were ratified, so some people (mostly from Connecticut, I expect) consider him to be the first US President.
However, according to Wikipedia:"[The President of the Continental Congress] was not the equivalent of a modern head of state, and had less authority than the governors of the individual colonies or states."
