Hottest US President

(Politics aside) I’ve always thought Ulysses S. Grant, Bill Clinton and Franklin Pierce were attractive. And of course Obama

Rutherford B. Hayes - God damn!

I think we're going to have to clarify this list though - are we going for in-office or younger years?

And I swear to fucking GOD, if anyone says John Kennedy, I'm going to reach through this computer and face-slap you! Everyone talked about how handsome he was - he was alright, but man have they blown his looks out of proportion!

Both Roosevelt men were handsome when younger.

R5 Part of Kennedy's original attraction was... after a half-century of very old and/or fat presidents, we had a young, "athletic", fit and energetic President.

Many of them were quite attractive when younger, which is probably why they became elected office material in the first place.

Here's the young Calvin Coolidge (put together!).

R7 - but isn't that like being voted Miss West Virginia or the 45 year old 'hottie' at a gay piano bar filled with obese 60-70 year olds?

Just because you're comparably better looking to a set of other people, it still doesn't make you great looking. Again - compared to Nixon, no contest.

Zachary Taylor wasn't too bad looking, but U.S. Grant did look like he throw a mean fuck your way.

Bet Grant had a sexy, furry chest on him.

I never found JFK handsome. His head was so unnaturally square. I think it's mostly he looked handsomer by contrast to his older predecessors.

Similarly, Jackie looked all the more beautiful because for decades the USA had First Ladies who were remarkably homely (Mamie, and especially Bess Truman and Eleanor). I will say that objectively Jackie was beautiful, especially given her wide-spaced huge eyes, but I don't think she was as classically pretty as Frances Cleveland.

by Anonymousreply 17June 5, 2025 5:48 PM

I always thought Clinton was hot early in his presidency. Reagan was fairly good looking when much younger, too.

by Anonymousreply 18June 5, 2025 5:50 PM

R15 they didn’t call Zachary Taylor “old rough and ready” for nothing 😉 And I agree, Grant is by far the sexiest

by Anonymousreply 19June 5, 2025 5:57 PM

R17 - agreed on both Kennedys' looks and how they were scaled against the previous tenants. Doesn't mean I don't like them - but the way people spoke about their beauty always was weird to me and overdone.

I think they were more glamorous than beautiful, and for me - glamour is much more appealing than beauty.

Franklin Pierce was rather dashing.

per Wikipedia: Pierce was popular and outgoing, but his family life was difficult; his three children died young and his wife, Jane Pierce, suffered from illness and depression for much of her life. Their last surviving son was killed in a train accident while the family was traveling, shortly before Pierce's inauguration. A heavy drinker for much of his life, Pierce died in 1869 of cirrhosis. As a result of his support of the South, as well as failing to hold the Union together in time of strife, historians and scholars generally rank Pierce as one of the worst and least memorable U.S. presidents.

Too bad Grant smelled like a sour cigar most of the time. His well-known habit was what led to his death at age 63 (throat cancer). He also died broke, having lost everything post-presidency in an investment meant to set his son up in a Wall Street brokerage that turned out to be a scam. His widow, though, did eventually get $450K in royalties because he'd completed his memoirs right before dying.

Is it true that even though FDR served 4 terms as President, Americans were unaware he couldn't walk without the aid of crutches?

Or was it that everyone knew but he was, nevertheless, never photographed or filmed with crutches?

The albumen print of Ulysses S. Grant in mourning for Abraham Lincoln is also very erotically charged, in my opinion.

Grant reportedly sobbed openly at Lincoln's funeral. Overcome with grief.
