Who didnt want to become president?

George Washington was not eager to be President but yielded to popular demand. Franklin Pierceallowed his name to placed into nomination but did not expect to be nominated and was not an eager candidate. In fact, he had earlier resigned his position in the Senate in order to come home to his law practice and make his wife happier. Warren Harding was more or less pushed into office by his friends. Supposedly he never learned to say "no" . I think he enjoyed being senator, but was over his head as president. Zachary Taylor did not show any interest in becoming President` and did not campaign after he was unexpectedly nominated. He may have secretly welcomed the opportunity by the time he actually took office. People who seriously do want to be president rarely run. For example. Gen. Wm Sherman is known for his refusal to run. Andrew Johnson never expected to become President .

Who do some people consider the first US President to have served before George Washington?

== == 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."
