John Hanson was the first President under the Articles of Confederation elected unanimously by the Congress (including George Washington) in 1781.\n\nThere were six Presidents elected John Hanson but before George Washington. They were:\n\nElias Boudinot (elected in 1783)\nThomas Mifflin (elected in 1784)\nRichard Henry Lee (elected in 1785)\nNathan Gorman (elected in 1786)\nArthur St. Clair (elected in 1787)\nCyrus Griffin (elected in 1788)\n\nThe only reason we don't remember the first seven is that the Articles of Confederation failed and the Constitution was adopted.\n\nGeorge Washington was the first President under the Constitution.\n\nAnd Bill Clinton was the first black President.\n\n[ puking ]\n\nEDIT: Professor K - I think we have established who was the first legal President (there were two - one under the Articles, one under the Constitution). It sounds as though you have a different opinion. Please enlighten us and expand on your comment ...

Under the current system, the US Constitution, the first president was George Washington. There was a government in place before that known as the Articles of Confederation. Under that system, the president was not the chief executive that he is today. Under the Articles of Confederation the president's full title was "President of the United States in Congress Assembled." The first person to hold that title was Samuel Huntington. Before that, we had the First Continental Congress, which did have a president as well. The first president of the First Contention Congress was Peyton Randolph. He was also the first president of the Second Contention Congress. The Continental Congress(es) were not intended to be permanent, they were a sort of revolutionary government. There is some confusion about all of this and some people argue that John Hanson was the first President of The United States. But I do not have the time to go into why that is so; He was the 3rd president under the Articles of Confederation.

No, In fact, of the 42 men who have served as President of the U.S., TEN have served less than one full term, and SIX of these served for a shorter time than Kennedy.\n\nHere they are in order of time served (to the nearest month):\n\n1) William Henry Harrison - 1 month*\n2) James Garfield - 6 months*\n3) Zachary Taylor - 16 months*\n4) Warren G. Harding - 29 months*\n5) Gerald Ford - 29 months\n6) Millard Fillmore -32 months\n7) John F. Kennedy - 34 months*\n8) Chester A. Arthur - 42 months\n9) Andrew Johnson - 47 months\n10) John Tyler - 47 months\n\n* -died in office; the others replaced their predecessors mid-term (all becausue of death, except Ford, who became President at Nixon's resignation) and failed to be elected President in their own right (though Arthur did not seek to be elected)

Go to the above link and look at the list of Presidents by date. #1 is Washington, #2 is Adams, etc. (Cleveland counts as 22 and 24 because his two terms were separate.) \n\nNow for your puzzle, the 21st president was Arthur, the sixth letter of that is R, so that's the first letter you want. Keep going and you'll get each letter. At the end, reverse the letters and you'll have the solution.\n\nHave fun!
