James Monroe
Next, we have yet another founding father who ended up taking over the presidency. James Monroe became the 5th President of the United States and his term ran from 1817 to 1825. He was a popular presidential candidate and he won the race via a landslide. His administration later became known as the “Era of Good Feelings.” He fought in the Revolutionary War and created “The Monroe Doctrine.”

Barack Obama
Come on, you must have been living under a rock if you don’t know the 44th President of the United States! Barack Obama also made history as the first African-American to be elected to presidency. He was in office from 2009 to 2017, during which he made significant moves like introducing the Affordable Care Act. He also helped broker a nuclear deal with Iran, repeal the “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” policy in the military, and improve relations with Cuba.
