Who was the first president of the united states?

George Washington. But technically, the first person who took the role of the president is John Hansen but, he is not considered the first president because policies have changed. Like during that time, the United States were 13 colonies.

abraham lincoln, according to anyone who was connected with agriculture, represented the worst of northern politicians. shortly after lincoln was elected, south carolina seceded from the union. they along with other southern states, retained their anger. in a way, it was their own fault: the democrats were split in the south. some wanted slavery to be extended in other states that were about to join the union and some didn't want it badly enough. lincoln had a solid backing from his party: the republicans were united in not wanting slavery to be expanded.
