James Buchanan was the only president never to marry. He is also the only president from Pennsylvania. James Buchanan was president when the southern states began to secede from the union. Although he believed secession was illegal, he also believed going to war to stop it was illegal so he did nothing. His lack of action in this regard is thought by many to be the biggest single failure of any United States President. Nickname was Old Buck
