James Buchanan was the 15th US president. The two personal items about this man that set him apart from other US presidents was that at age 62, he was the oldest man to assume the office of president. He was also the first bachelor to become president.
Both Presidents Lincoln and Johnson did not view the US Civil War as an armed conflict between separate nations. For them the war was a rebellion and therefore the Union itself never was split apart, simply "strained".
There were several presidents between 1821 and 1836 when Texas split. The most renowned would be Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna.

The General was popularily elected on the Republican Ticket. Apart from his war background, he had no prevous experience in Politics but perhaps general of the Army was/is enough.
Lincoln was a Whig when he ran for the Illinois legislature in 1832 and when he was subsequently elected to the Illinois legislature. Lincoln was a Whig when he was elected to the US Congress in 1846. Lincoln did not become a Republican until after the Whig Party fell apart in the late 1850s.
Senators serve 6 year terms and Representatives serve 2 year terms. The senate has 3 groups which have their elections staggered 2 years apart. So... 1/3 of the Senate, and all Representatives are elected every two years.
The General Secretary of the German Social Democrats, Andrea Nahles, is at the Democratic National Convention. She's rooting for Obama and warns that a President Romney could drive Europe and the US apart.
