Benjamin Harrison – 145.4

After the American Civil War, while serving in the Union Army, Benjamin Harrison was elected President of the United States of America, becoming his country’s 23rd President in 1876. He is widely recognized as one of the most successful presidents in the history of the United States, thanks to his great foreign contacts and effective working relationship with Congress throughout his time in the position of President. The safeguarding of African-American voting rights, as well as the admittance of Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Washington, and Wyoming as new members of the United States of America, were among the most notable successes of his term. In terms of intelligence, Benjamin Harrison had a 145.4 IQ, which put him ahead of Eisenhower and Jackson, but still only in the top half of the top 50% of the population. He was given the nickname “Little Ben” since he was the great-grandson of Benjamin Harrison, the founding father of the United States, and the namesake of Benjamin Harrison. He was also the first and only President of the United States to have a grandfather who was a past President of the United States, making him the only such President. Without a doubt, he is the great-grandson of none other than William Henry “Old Tippecanoe” Harrison, who was responsible for the founding of the town of Tippecanoe.
