Here Are Pictures Showing Transformation Of US Presidents After Assuming Office

4Franklin D. Roosevelt (1933-1945)

Franklin D. Roosevelt commanded the Oval Office on March 4, 1933. His tenure was rather a difficult one as America was facing the threat of World War II and The Great Depression which was pushing the country into major agony and turmoil. He is the only Democrat who won 4 presidential elections and became the central figure in the mid-20^th century. He died on April 12, 1945, while signing documents and letters due to a massive cerebral hemorrhage which shows how pressured job it is to be the President of the United States.

5George H.W. Bush (1989-1993)

George H.W. Bush became the 41^st president of the United States on January 20^th, 1989. Being the father of George W. Bush, he attained office at the age of 64 looking relatively young which changed drastically during his 4 years tenure. On December 20^th, 1989, H.W. Bush sent thousands of troops and aircraft into Panama to execute the then leader Manuel Noriega, on charges of drug trafficking. It was a huge success when the leader surrendered himself on January 3^rd. It resulted in the death of 20 American Soldiers and 300-500 Panamanians which resulted in controversy.

6Gerald Ford (1974-1977)

Gerald Ford served in the office for a mere 2 years and five months after attaining office following the resignation of Nixon in 1975. He might have served for a very less time but these 2 and half years affected him miserably. The 38^th president of US pardoned Nixon for all his criminal charges over Watergate scandal. Ford’s decision invoked many controversies and millions of American demanded punishment for Nixon over his criminal charges. In his remaining two years, Ford faced a domestic energy crisis and weak economy involving high unemployment and inflation.

7Richard Nixon (1969-1974)

Elected as the 37^th president of the United States on January 20^th 1969, Richard Nixon became the only US President ever to resign from the presidential post. He is possibly the most famous American president but sadly, for all the wrong reasons. Despite bringing the American Prisoners to war and ending the Vietnam War, signing missile treaty with the Soviet Union and being the person behind 1969 Apollo 11 moon landing, he was always surrounded by controversies. He will always be remembered for the Watergate scandal, which made him the first president ever to be impeached.
