Why do so many Americans think Dick Cheney was the President of the US from 2000 to 2009?

Many Americans unfortunately have trouble naming any politician or even former President correctly, not even their own representatives in Congress. In this case, one reason may be that Dick Cheney was one of the most 'visible' vice presidents in modern history and according to many overshadowed President George W. Bush, especially during his first term which by the way started in 2001.
