Grover Cleveland – 144

President Grover Cleveland came dangerously close to being in the top 50 percent of all presidents during his time in office, with an IQ of 144 during his time in office. During his first tenure as President of the United States, which lasted from 1885 to 1889, Grover Cleveland was elected to a second term. While he did not serve consecutive terms due to failure in his first attempt to be re-elected in 1892, he did so in his second attempt to be re-elected the following year in 1893. Republicans supported his budgetary policies as well as his ambition to see political reform put into effect. While serving his second term, Cleveland was confronted with the Panic of 1893, which proved to be a tremendous economic calamity, as well as with the Pullman Strike of 1894, which was a massive train strike that had an impact over the entire country. His forefathers were descendants of one of the families that had been among the first to embark on the arduous trek over the Atlantic to reach the New World when they arrived in Massachusetts. Cleveland’s biographer praised him for his ability to speak in front of an audience, stating: “Truthfulness, boldness, firmness, independence and common sense were the characteristics that set him apart from the crowd. He, on the other hand, possessed them in a way that other men were unable to “. However, despite the fact that Cleveland’s second term was less popular than his first, some historians believe him to be one of the most successful presidents the United States has ever had.
