Which president was the only one to not get elected?
Technically, all US presidents but one (we'll get to that in a minute) have been elected by the electoral college. The electoral college is nominally supposed to follow the dictates of the popular election, though on a state-by-state basis as opposed to the overall totals, which is what makes it possible for someone to gather a majority of the popular vote and still lose the election.There is also something called a "faithless elector", which is an elector who votes differently than how their state's popular election turned out. Though this has happened in 157 cases so far, none of them have ever changed the final result of an election, because most of the time these electors are acting individually in an attempt to make a political statement rather than to actually subvert the will of the people. The closest this has ever come to actually making a difference was in 1836, when 23 electors from Virginia refused to vote for Richard Mentor Johnson for Vice-President, causing there to be no vice-presidential candidate with a majority of votes (Johnson had the highest number of votes, but not a majority). Since no candidate had a majority, the election fell to the Senate to decide, where Johnson won anyway. The largest number of faithless electors in a single election was in 1872, when 63 of the 66 electors pleged to support Horace Greeley voted for other candidates instead, because Greeley had died (3 voted for Greeley anyway). However, Grant had a clear majority of the vote, so even if they had decided to pool their votes for a single candidate it wouldn't have mattered.The one President who was not elected as either President or Vice-President by the electoral college, and the one you're probably thinking of, is Gerald Ford. He was appointed Vice-President by President Richard Nixon when Nixon's elected VP, Spiro Agnew, resigned due to criminal charges against him. When Nixon himself later resigned, Ford became President without ever participating in a presidential election.Ford was an elected official, though: he was a congressman, and in fact was House Minority Leader (the Republicans were the minority party in the House at the time) when Nixon chose him as VP. (It wasn't all that much of a choice. Nixon's appointee had to be confirmed by congress, and when Nixon sought advice from congressional leaders, their unanimous recommendation was Ford.)

Why did Great Britain get into World War 1?
Britain entered WW1 in the defense of Belgium and in reaction to Germany's violation of The Treaty of London (1839), in which Belgium's neutrality was to be respected by all nations. June 28, 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand (who was next in line for the Austrian throne) and his wife Sophie were both assassinated while on a visit to Serbia. War was declared between Serbia and Austria (because a Serb killed what was basically Austria's equivalent of Prince Charles). Anyway, Austria (also called Austro-Hungary) had signed a treaty, along with Germany and Italy (called the Triple Alliance), saying that if one of them went to war against another country, that the rest of them would go to war. On the other hand, there was another set of three countries which had signed ANOTHER treaty, called the Triple Entente. These countries were Britain, France and Russia. Russia was a supporter of tiny little Serbia, and so when the Triple Alliance declared war on Serbia, Russia became involved, and that is the way France and Britain became involved. Britain used to own almost half of the countries in the world, so when Britain went to war, so did they example: Australia, New Zealand, India etc. different perspective Because Russia, Britain and France had an alliance called the Triple Entente. When Austria-Hungary invaded Serbia following the assassination of the heir-apparent to the throne of Austria-Hungary (Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria) Russia joined in to help Serbia per a separate agreement. Germany, an ally of Austria-Hungary, then declared war on Russia and France and began to move troops through the neutral sovereign state of Belgium to attack France. The British were not obliged to help the French in the event of war and did declare war when German forces invaded Belgium on August 4 1914. Britain ordered Germany to withdraw immediatly from Belgium, Germany refused and The United Kingdom declared war on Germany on the afternnoon of August 4, 1914. The Treaty of London in 1937 meant that the sovereignty of Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg was guaranteed. In the event of a major European Power invading it, Britain was obliged to help defend the small nations and on August 4, when Germany executed the Schlieffen plan via Belgium and Luxembourg Britain honoured the Treaty and declared war on Germany.
When and why did Britain become involved in World War 1?
Britain entered WW1 in the defense of Belguim and in reaction to Germany's violation of The Treaty of London(1839), in which Belguim's neutrality was to be respected by all nations.On June 28, 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand (who was next in line for the Austrian throne) and his wife Sophie were both assassinated while on a visit to Serbia. War was declared between Serbia and Austria (because a Bosnian Serb - named Gavrilo Princip - killed what was basically Austria's equivalent of Prince Charles). Anyway, Austria (also called Austria-Hungary) had signed a treaty, along with Germany and Italy (called the Triple Alliance), saying that if one of them went to war against another country, that the rest of them would go to war. On the other hand, there was another set of three countries which had signed ANOTHER treaty, called the Triple Entente. These countries were Britain, France and Russia. Russia was a supporter of tiny little Serbia, and so when the Triple Alliance delcared war on Serbia, Russia became involved, and that is the way France and Britain became involved. Britain used to own almost half of the countries in the world, so when Britain went to war, so did they -- eg: Australia, New Zealand, India etc.Britain became involved in World War One because the Germans invaded Belgium. The Treaty of London (1839) between Britain, Prussia, Russia, Austria and France on one hand, and the Netherlands on the other, pledged all parties to respect and defend the perpetual neutrality of Belgium. Germany was a successor state to Prussia, and the Prussian kings had become the German Emperors. When Germany invaded Belgium on its way to France in 1914 the British protested immediately and reminded the Germans of their obligations under this Treaty. The German foreign minister cynically referred to the Treaty as "a scrap of paper". Britain honored its obligations under the Treaty and entered the war to defend the neutrality of Belgium. Previous to the war the British and French had entered into an "Entente Cordiale" ("Cordial Understanding") which was a series of commercial agreements, and NOT a military alliance. There had been some informal meetings between officers of the French and British general staffs on the subject of possible war on the European mainland involving Britain on the side of France, but there were only informal understandings which resulted, nothing approaching an actual alliance.WWITo protect their shipping lanes and to help protect France and their alliances.Also, many in Britain saw it as a chance to cut this new power down to size. It had existed only since 1871 but already had an army to rival Britain's and hopes of building a bigger empire....Britain went to war because of a treaty nearly a hundred years old that most countries had forgotten about, the Germans didn't think Britain would respect the treaty and their only hope of winning the war was to defeat France within the first week meaning the could concentrate on Russia, the only way to do this was for the Germans to go through Belgium as the French hadn't defended that border.As soon as the Germans attacked Belgium Britain declared war, the Germans now had to fight on 2 fronts and by time they defeated Russia most German supplies were gone and the British along with other allies went over the top. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrjHdl-IYPw this clip is from Blackadder a great comedy which in its fourth and final series took place during WW1, Rowan Atkinson explains why it started and how it was too much trouble not to have a war.
