Born near Mercersburg, Pennsylvania, Buchanan graduated from Dickinson College. He served in the U.S. House of Representatives , as U.S. minister to Russia and England, in the U.S. Senate , and as secretary of state for James K. Polk . In 1854 he joined in writing the Ostend Manifesto . In 1856 he received the Democratic presidential nomination, defeating Republican John C. Frémont and the candidate of the American party, former president Millar Fillmore. As sectional tensions over slavery increased, he tried unsuccessfully to keep peace between the North and South. During Buchanan's term the Supreme Court handed down the Dred Scott decision , John Brown's raid occurred, and South Carolina seceded. He took no action (for which he was reviled at the time and afterward), only forestalling hostilities until Abraham Lincoln was inaugurated. Buchanan was the only bachelor to hold the office of president.

Resources Maladies and Conditions Top eye defect "An eye defect forced him to tilt his head slightly forward and sideways when engaged in conversation, which gave the impression of exceptional courtesy and sensitivity to others" [ eye twitch One of Buchanan's eyelids twitched, which, combined with his personality (in 1825, at least) led a modern Jackson biographer to describe Buchanan as a "winking, fidgeting little busybody" [ serious drinking "Buchanan, a wealthy bachelor with Epicurean tastes,... was celebrated for serious drinking" [ ]. He chided his liquor merchants for delivering champagne to the White House in small bottles. He would use his Sunday ride as an excuse to visit the Jacob Baer distillery in Washington and pick up a ten-gallon cask of "Old J.B. Whiskey." It would amuse him when White House guests mistook the initials J.B. for his own. A journalist of the time wrote "There was no head ache, no faltering steps, no flushed cheek" associated with Buchanan's drinking. "Oh no! All was as cool, as calm and as cautious and watchful as in the beginning. More than one ambitious tyro who sought to follow his... example gathered an early fall" [

Episcopalian Presbyterian Methodist Baptist Unitarian Disciples of Christ Dutch Reformed Quaker Catholic Congregationalist/ United Church of Christ Keep in mind that in the table above, the % of the U.S. population for religious groups are current figures. Religious groups have had much different proportions at various time in U.S. history. One of the most over-represented religious groups among U.S. presidents is Unitarianism. Despite merging with Universalism in the 1960s, the combined proportion of Unitarian Universalists in the U.S. population is just 0.2% of the population (one in every 500 Americans). Yet there have been 4 Unitarian presidents. Another over-represented religious group among U.S. presidents is Dutch Reformed, by virtue of having two U.S. presidents, yet having only a small number of people left in the country who identify themselves as Reformed. The contemporary heir to the Dutch Reformed churches is the "Reformed Church in America," which has about 300,000 members in the U.S. and Canada. (Alternatively, one might count only a single president as Dutch Reformed, if Theodore Roosevelt is counted as an Episcopalian sources differ on this subject . Even only one Dutch Reformed president would constitute statistical over-representation.) After that, Disciples of Christ, Episcopalians, and Quakers have also had representation in the White House far outstripping their proportion of the U.S. population.

JAMES BUCHANAN (APRIL 23, 1791 - JUNE 1, 1868) PARENTS: James Buchanan (c. 1761 – 1821) and Elizabeth Speer Buchanan, of Lancaster (1767-1833). Buchanan attributed his success to his mother. YOUTH: Born in a log cabin in Cove Gap, near Mercersburg, Pennsylvania. Oldest of eight children. Educated by his mother and at Old Stone Academy in Mercersburg. Graduated from Dickinson College. He fell in love with Anne Coleman, daughter of Lancaster millionaire Robert Coleman. She died, probably by suicide, after they had a fight. Buchanan wrote a letter explaining the quarrel which was to be unsealed after his death. However, he later instructed his attorneys to destroy it after his death and they complied. He never married. HOBBIES: Despite being near-sighted in one eye and far-sighted in the other, Buchanan loved to read books and to play cards. CAREER: In the War of 1812 , he was among the first to volunteer for Judge Henry Shippen’s Dragoons after the British burned Washington in 1814. Elected to the Pennsylvania House of Representatives for two terms, 1815 and 1816, as a Federalist.
