Which US President Are You?

“Honest Abe” was Abraham Lincoln’s most famous nickname, for his supposed inability to ever tell a lie. He also fearlessly led the Union during America’s Civil War and signed the Emancipation Proclamation, ending slavery. You yourself won’t stand for unfairness, and you will always advocate for the “little guy.” Your just, loyal, and kindhearted personality matches that of Lincoln’s!

President Roosevelt entered office and was immediately faced with the Depression. He also was in office at the time World War II commenced. Through these two serious crises, FDR prevailed, passing laws that helped farmers and small business who were about to lose their homes during the Depression and encouraging the allies to protect democracy all over the world during the war. Similarly, you are steadfast and persevering. Your never-give-up attitude, even through hardship and difficulty, makes you like Roosevelt!

Thomas Jefferson was a go-getter, someone who blazed new paths and tried new things. Not only was he one of the people who signed the Declaration of Independence, he also facilitated the Louisiana Purchase and made the bold decision of cutting down the US Army and Navy so that the country could run as cheaply as possible and save money for bigger developments to come. You are brave like Jefferson, a trendsetter, someone who is not afraid to take risks to reach bigger goals!

James Monroe accomplished much during his presidency in terms of promoting peace and looking out for people’s interests. He facilitated friendly negotiations between America, England, and France, was president during the signing of the Missouri Compromise which limited slavery, and ensured the signing of the Monroe Doctrine, which forbade all European countries from creating new colonies in the Americas. He also took trips around the country just to see what was going on in the minds of US citizens and see what they wanted from him. His presidency came to be known as the “Era of Good Feelings,” and like Monroe, you have a knack at interacting with people. You love being social, meeting new friends, and catching up with old ones, and no matter where you or are what type of gathering you’re attending, you will be the life of the party!

Everyone remembers John F. Kennedy as being a President who truly cared about his people. One of the major programs that he established during his presidency was the Peace Corps, allowing Americans to travel the world and provide sustainable help to those in need. Like President Kennedy, you are always peace-seeking and truly caring for the rest of humankind. You are empathetic and warm, and you should never let anyone quell your optimistic spirit!
