John Hanson US President 1781
Who was the first President of the United States of America most would say George Washington, but many say John Hanson?
John Hanson saved us from living under a new American monarchy
Give up? It was John Hanson or not. as I always say, "to the victor goes the history". One thing is absolute, he was either the first or the third, but he certainly played a pivitol role in the survival of a fledgling USA.
Who is John Hanson you say? He was probably more responsible for our nation becoming what it was than the whole lot of those whose names you know well.
John Hanson (1715-1783)
US Senator - Maryland
Patriot
Played a monumental role in the formation of the USA
Born - 1715
Farmer
Nine term US Senator
Hanson was unanimously chosen by the Continental Congress to be the first President in 1781 under the Articles of Confederation. Each president served a one year term.
Hanson is not celebrated as the first US President because in 1789 the Articles of confederation were scrapped for a “better” version, the United States Constitution.
He died in 1783 in Maryland.
The historical record of John Hanson’s actions surrounding the Continental Congress’ exodus from Philadelphia in the USA’s fledgling moments, I believe, if they are accurate, nearly singlehandedly saved us from living under another monarchy of our own making.
They don’t teach everything in school, learning is a hunger, knowledge is the fuel that feeds the fire of wisdom.
