The Deaf President Now (DPN) protest at Gallaudet University lasted for a week, from March 6 to March 13, 1988. The protest was led by Gallaudet students, faculty, staff, and alumni, demanding that a deaf president be appointed, rather than a hearing president. The protest ultimately resulted in the appointment of the university's first deaf president, I. King Jordan.

A president who was tone deaf was president Ulysses S. Grant

he's dead now but he was deaf

Ronald Reagan was deaf , or almost deaf, in one ear due to an accident when he was making a movie. He wore a hearing aid which, according to stories, he wouild turn off on occasion during boring meetings. I think he was the nearest to deaf US president ever,

No, its not even a deaf community now.
