Best Answer

James Monroe was the first ex-senator to become president, but he was a Senator more than 20 years before he was President. I am not sure who was the first sitting senator to become President. People used to think it was necessary to resign one office before campaigning for another one. John Kennedy held on to his Senate seat while he ran for president in 1960 but he may not have been the first.
