Time 2 drop some science...

Must suck to be this guy! I'm surprised he hasn't come back from the dead, hell, wouldn't YOU be THAT pissed?! "I WAS FUCKING PRESIDENT FOR A DAY, AND NOT ONE GODDAMN MENTION OF ME IN THE HISTORY BOOKS, YOU SONS OF BITCHES!!!"

President for a Day
David Rice Atchison attended a Presbyterian University, and was expected by his parents to enter the ministry. However, he chose a career on law.

He is probably most famous for being the President Pro Tem of the Senate on Sunday, March 4, 1849. On that date James Polk's term of office expired at noon; his successor, Zachary Taylor, refused to be sworn in on the Sabbath. With no official president or vice-president, some consider Atchison to have been "President for a Day", but he is not included in the official list of presidents (now standing at 44).
