I voted for James K. Polk, Millard Fillmore, James Buchanan, Abraham Lincoln, Ulysses S. Grant, Teddy Roosevelt, William Howard Taft, Harry S. Truman, John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Ronald Regan, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Donald Trump and my personal favourite MARTIN VAN BUREN




I'll admit half of these are ironic favourites. BUT YOU GOTTA LOVE THE BUREN!
 
quick question: do all americans have to know their presidents off by heart? i'm curious because i've met a fair few americans who have been quite shocked that i didn't know most of the prime ministers of the UK, so it seems like something that might be taught to you guys and it sticks or summat i dunno



legit i can only name like eight or whatever: Theresa May, David Cameron, Gordon Brown, Tony Blair, John Major, Margaret Thatcher, *great big gap* Winston Churchill, *even greater gap* both the William Pitts (assuming the name William Pitt the younger does refer to there being two William Pitts in charge), and probably around the same time as them, Oliver Cromwell (pretty sure he wasn't actually a prime minister but some sort of mental MP who took over the government

It seems like it must be something that used to be taught in school, as I know specifically my grandparents can do it. I never had to learn all of them, though.
 
sometimes i'll hear about a person who was president once and be like 99% certain they weren't ever president, but it turns out im just a moron
 
I don't have one

I'm sure most Americans couldn't name every president by heart anyway, don't feel too bad
