Winston Churchill

the union naval leader was David Farragut who captured New Orleans.
If you mean prez, then no. All wanted Washington to be out first fearless leader(except for Washington himself).
I believe the leader was Andrew Jackson.
No, he was still a boy and was not at a leader, but he was engaged in the fighting and was actually captured as a POW by the British for a short time and almost died from small pox.
The leader of the British invasion force set to attack New Orleans was General Sir Edward Pakenham.He was the brother in law of the Duke of Wellington. General Pakenham would have a force of 7,500 British soldiers. Many were veterans of the Napoleonic era wars in Europe. The British goal was to take New Orleans and as much of the Louisiana Territory as possible. If successful, these victories would be powerful bargaining chips at the peace talks in Ghent, Belgium.
Andrew Jackson
Jackson's role as an ardent expansionist and charismatic leader helped inspired his men & locals to fight and defeat the British.
George Washington was the general of the Continental army fighting the British forces. He came up with a strategy to defeat the British and won. This was the first battle he won as a leader.
