Both President Harrison's served once as President of the United States. William Henry Harrison served 31 days as president before passing away. Benjamin Harrison served 1 full term as president.
No ex-president has later become a Secretary of State- six have moved up from Secretary of State to president, however.
There are three U.S. presidents from Delaware: Joe Biden, who served as the 46th president; James Buchanan, the 15th president; and Thomas McKean, who served as president of the Continental Congress but not as a president of the United States. Among these, only Biden and Buchanan are recognized as presidents of the United States.
There were 42 men who served as president of the United States, prior to Obama, NOT 43 as some people believe. Remenber Grover Cleveland was counted twice as the 22nd and 24th president. So, in conclusion, Obama is the 43rd man to serve as president of the United STATES ---- NOT the 44th.
Up to and including Donald Trump, the total number of people who have served as President of the United States, not counting those who served for one or two days as Acting President, is 44.
George W. Bush, the 43rd President of the United States, WAS in office for two presidential terms, from 2001-2009. He served the maximum number of terms, which a person can serve as president of the United States.
14 presidents served as vice president before becoming president
There have been 44 men who served as US President as of 2011. It is often said that President Barack Obama is the 44th President of the United States of America. However, President Obama is only the 43rddifferent person to serve as President of the United States. This is due to the fact that President Grover Cleveland served non-consecutive terms and so is usually counted as both the 22nd and the 24th President.
The 41st President of the United States was George H. W. Bush, served from January 20, 1989 to January 20, 1993
