President Gandalf

  • President in Emily Warden's satirical story The Reign of Magic
  • In January 1968 a large-scale anti-war happening takes place in San Francisco. Participants, influenced by Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, start chanting "Gandalf for President! Gandalf for President!" when suddenly the wizard himself appears with a loud bang, bows to the assembled activists and declares, "I accept your nomination!". Being deeply under the influence of LSD, it takes time for participants to understand that something truly remarkable has happened. At first, Gandalf's candidacy is considered a hoax and not taken seriously. However, he shows up to magically avert the murders of both Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy, with the assassins' lead bullets turning into pieces of soft sponge – as well as intervening in the rioting outside the Democratic Convention in Chicago to transform police batons into flowers. With TV crews following him around the country and broadcasting all his magical feats live, Gandalf's campaign gathers unstoppable momentum and he is elected in a landslide. In his inauguration speech, Gandalf declares he will give the American people and the whole world the benefits of Magic as a cheap, non-polluting energy source. A School of Magic is opened at the University of California, Berkeley, soon attracting the nation's most brilliant young people. President Gandalf ends the Vietnam War through a three-way summit with Ho Chi Minh and Nguyễn Văn Thiệu, all three agreeing to the peaceful reunification of Vietnam as a multi-party democracy in exchange for United Vietnam getting preferential access to the resources of Magic. The world's second School of Magic is established at Huế. The withdrawal of American troops begins on the anniversary of the Tet Offensive. The American soldiers head to the transports in a festive atmosphere amidst widespread fraternizing with their former Vietcong foes. The US space program is transformed, with Neil Armstrong becoming the captain of a magical sailing ship, carried to the Moon on ethereal winds and with the Sea of Tranquillity becoming a true ocean, far from tranquil, with tossing high salt waves. After four highly successful years, by 1972 President Gandalf seems set for a virtually uncontested second term when he suddenly announces his resignation: "It was fun being here, and this is really one of my favorite worlds, but many other places need me, too. I will come by again, by the by, but probably not in this century. Good bye, my friends!" – thereupon soaring far above the White House and disappearing among a mighty burst of fireworks.

President Paul Garcetti

  • President in: Political Animals
  • A US Senator, he defeats former First Lady and governor of Illinois, Elaine Barrish Hammond for the Democratic nomination and upon his election, he names Barrish as Secretary of State although relations between them worsen due to disagreements over foreign policy
  • In office, Garcetti listens more to the counsel of his amoral vice president Fred Collier and chief of staff Barry Harris. However, he akes Secretary Barrish's advice when a Chinese submarine is downed off the Los Angeles coast by launching a successful rescue operation
  • After the Chinese rescue, Garcetti refuses to accept Barrish's resignation so she can run for president against him in the Democratic primaries and he offers the Vice Presidency to her at the next election which Barrish is poised to accept. Before Barrish can accept the vice-presidential spot on the ticket, President Garcetti is lost and presumed killed when Air Force One crashes into the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of France. This leaves Vice President Collier as the new acting president. Garcetti's corpse is found in the wreckage, which makes Collier the president.

  • Elected vice president under Theodore G. Jay in 2000, assumes the reins of power as acting president, as per the 25th Amendment, after Jay goes on a leave of absence due to a deep depression. Garland is much more popular than President Jay and attempts to have Jay ruled unfit by Congress and the Cabinet when Jay tries to reassume the presidency.

President Herbert Garrison

  • President in: South Park
  • After protesting the growing presence of Canadian refugees in South Park fleeing from the populist, vulgar Donald-Trump-esque President of Canada, demanding that a border wall be built to keep out Canadian immigrants (which the Canadians already built to keep Americans out of Canada), and raping the President of Canada to death, Garrison launched a presidential campaign.
  • Despite attempting to sabotage his own campaign to avoid humiliation in failing to fulfil his campaign promises (simply expressed as raping to death his and America's perceived enemies), he defeats Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election. He loses the popular vote, but wins the Electoral College vote by 306 to 232.
  • Caitlyn Jenner serves as his running mate. However, Mike Pence is later seen serving as Vice President.
  • After Kyle Broflovski and the pressure group Millennials Against Canada protest the Netflix revival of Terrance and Phillip, worsening American-Canadian relations culminate in Garrison launching a nuclear strike against Toronto.
  • He deliberately mishandles the COVID-19 pandemic to fulfill his racist campaign promises (as ethnic minorities suffered disproportionately higher fatalities), even incinerating a pangolin which may have been the key to creating a vaccine.
  • Apparently having lost the 2020 election to Joe Biden, he returns to his old teaching job. However, a large number of children are pulled out of South Park Elementary either because their parents hate him or are loyal QAnon supporters who misinterpret his demands for them to stop accosting him as a coded message to spread conspiracy theories by becoming private tutors.

President Geotekeezu-Chub'Chub-Pegaree (aka Andrew Wheatley/Geotkie)

  • President in George Morgan's 1935 story Surprise in the White House
  • President Andrew Wheatley is elected in 2004 (a future date at the time of writing) after two terms as a senator from Wisconsin. He is considered a mediocre politician, neither very Liberal not conspicuously Conservative, and no particularly noteworthy events are expected from his term – and so it seems in his first year. But in February 2006, a sensation does break out: Secret Service bodyguards apprehend Ward Bartolomeu, a White House confidential secretary, in the act of attempting to rape First Lady, Mary Wheatley. When his trial opens in a blaze of nationwide publicity, Bartolomeu enters a bizarre plea: he asserts that the president and his wife are in fact humanoid extraterrestrials, descendants of the crew of an interstellar ship which crash-landed in Oliver Cromwell's England. Bartolomeu further asserts that the presidential couple are in possession of a powerful unearthly aphrodisiac, produced under a formula handed down from their stellar ancestors, and that he had acted under its influence. Bartolomeu's assertions are greeted with derision – until the president comes up as a defense witness, confirming all of these assertions and stating that Bartolomeu had unknowingly used a huge overdose of the aphrodisiac and was indeed unable to control himself. Thereupon, Bartolomeu is acquitted and Congress proceeds to impeach President Wheatley – some of its members believing that he is indeed an extraterrestrial, others considering him as suffering from major delusions and still others regarding him and his wife as grossly immoral – all of these divergent views alike being taken as grounds for impeachment. In the aftermath, the ex-president and his wife drop from view. An industrious journalist traces them to a hut at a fishermen's village in Patagonia – but they refuse to talk to him. However, in 2011 the world is threatened by an imminent collision with a giant asteroid. Thereupon, the ex-president comes out of seclusion and offers the League of Nations (still existent in this future) the knowledge of how to construct a powerful Repellor Ray Emitter, which is used to push the asteroid harmlessly away. Hailed as a hero and savior, he then runs again for the US presidency in 2012 and is elected by a landslide – this time under his true name in his ancestral language, President Geotekeezu-Chub'Chub-Pegaree. At his inauguration, he pronounces the full name by its precise correct intonation. However, the public generally calls him "President Geotkie". His wife – who has a similarly long, unearthly true name – becomes known as "First Lady Medgarie". Geotkie serves three full terms (the story was written before the enactment of the Twenty-second Amendment), and becomes one of the most successful and highly-popular presidents in American history. He makes available to the general public much scientific and technological knowledge passed down from his stellar ancestors – but is firm in suppressing and destroying the formula for the infamous aphrodisiac, which he considers too dangerous to unleash upon the world.

  • Narrowly defeats Democratic challenger Samuel Reston in the 2008 presidential election, although this is primarily through election fraud in Defiance County, Ohio (which he is unaware of until late into his first term).
  • A Republican, he surprises his party by reaching across the aisle during his second term in office, appointing Democrats to his cabinet and taking on issues such as immigration reform [the DREAM Act], Education reform and Equal Pay and successfully passing a gun control bill, completely antagonizing the Republican base. As the death of his son, Fitzgerald Thomas 'Jerry Jr.' Grant IV, helps him win re-election due to public sympathy, these actions may be Grant's attempts either to self-justify his second term or to honour the memory of his son (a Democrat who supported Samuel Reston's 2012 candidacy).
  • Has three vice presidents during his term – Sally Langston, who covets the presidency, even challenging him unsuccessfully as an independent in the 2012 presidential election; Andrew Nichols, who covertly tries to have Grant killed; and finally Susan Ross, a former senator from Virginia appointed primarily for the purpose of Mellie Grant obtaining a Senate seat and being unchallenged for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016.

  • On the domestic front, he encounters inter alia, an assassination attempt, Clinton-esque sex scandals, a secret CIA Black Ops group on US soil, terrorist attacks, a coup d'état and a diabolical chief of staff.
  • Political Party Affiliation: Republican
  • Succeeded in January 2017 by Senator Mellie Grant, his ex-wife.
  • In addition to Jerry Jr., Grant also has a daughter, Karen, who starts acting out at school and engaging in drunken sex following the death of her brother, and another son, Theodore Wallace 'Teddy' Grant, conceived only to exonerate Grant from a damaging sex scandal after an audio recording is made of him and Olivia Pope.
  • Played by Tony Goldwyn

President Mellie Grant

  • President in Scandal, an ABC Television Series from Season 6-present.
  • Serving her presidential term from 2017 to present.
  • Former first lady of California and first lady of the United States as the wife of Fitzgerald Grant. After a contentious marriage that results in several infidelities on Fitz's part, the Grants divorce during the fifth year of Fitzgerald's presidency.
  • When Grant is rendered comatose following an assassination attempt and Vice President Sally Langston becomes acting president, she forges Grant's signature on a letter ending invocation whilst he is still comatose. Between then and Grant's eventual recovery, she may well have exercised presidential powers, paralleling Edith Wilson's 'stewardship' following her husband Woodrow's stroke.
  • After the death of her son Fitzgerald Thomas 'Jerry Jr' Grant IV (whom she originally thought was conceived as a result of being raped by Fitz's father, Fitzgerald Thomas Grant II), she enters a period of mourning which alienates her from her surviving children, Karen and Theodore, generates press speculation about her mental health, and leads to humiliation after requisitioning federal government resources to solve a much publicised open-and-shut case involving the deaths of two hikers.
  • Former US senator from Virginia from November 2013 to January 2017. Although former vice president and conservative talk-show host Sally Langston questions the constitutionality of a first lady holding elected office, that fact likely helps to get her elected.
  • A Harvard Law graduate where she came top of her class, practicing for a period as a highly skilled corporate lawyer before giving up her career to support her husband's political ambitions.
  • Launches a campaign for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination, eventually defeating Vice President Susan Ross and business tycoon Hollis Doyle for the nomination. She selects NSA Director Jake Ballard as her running mate.
  • Loses the 2016 presidential election by an exceptionally narrow margin electorally to Democratic nominee Pennsylvania governor Francisco Vargas, while carrying the popular vote; Vargas' assassination on Election Night throws the presidency into contention due to the constitutional amendments allowing electors to vote for their preferred candidates.
  • Lobbying from Grant's team as well as revelations and pressures surrounding Democratic vice presidential nominee, former White House chief of staff Cyrus Beene, leads to Grant winning the Congressional vote for the Presidency.
  • Grant selects Luna Vargas, a Democrat and Francisco's widow, as her vice presidential choice to unify the nation after Jake Ballard resigns as vice president-elect. Grant's team are unaware though that Luna Vargas has supposedly masterminded Francisco's assassination and is similarly planning an assassination against Mellie.
  • Luna Vargas' role is exposed and she is covertly murdered on Inauguration Night, though the whole plot is actually the brainchild of Beene.
  • Administration officials include Vice President Cyrus Beene and White House Chief of Staff Olivia Pope, who is later replaced by Jake Ballard.
  • It is suggested that she is elected to a second term in the 2020 presidential election in the final scene of the finale as she is seen signing a Gun Control bill in 2021. And if she is to finish out the term, she will seal the Republican Party's grip on the White House for 24 years.

President William Grey

President Joe Grozen

  • President in the short story "Welcome" by Poul Anderson[1]
  • In 2497, President Grozen has already been long in office. Though the country is still officially called "A Republic", the meaning of the term republic has long been forgotten. The Presidency had become hereditary centuries before, Joe Grozen being descended from a long dynasty of earlier Grozen Presidents. Monogamy having been dispensed with, the President can and does have as many wives as he wants. To ensure an orderly succession, the law stipulates that the President's oldest son by his Chief Orthowife would be his heir. Rozh Grozen, President Grozen's designated heir, is a brilliant young man, studying hard to prepare himself for assuming the presidency on his father's death - though, barring accidents, this would still be far in the future. Such ideas as Democracy or Human and Civil Rights having long since totally disappeared; all the American population except a tiny elite at the top are reduced (regardless of skin color) to the status of chattel slavery. Slaves, going around with shaved heads and wearing drab grey clothing, have no rights and may be tortured or killed at their owner's complete discretion. Since there is enormous overpopulation, the US population exceeds a billion (fifteen billion worldwide), slaves are completely expendable. President Grozen and his associates see nothing wrong with cannibalism, regularly consuming the flesh of "redundant" slaves, well-cooked by the presidential gourmet cooks. For presidential banquets, it is customary to cook whole a slave baby, "Suckling Coolie" being a specially appreciated dish. In daily life, President Grozen is a genial and easy going man, a loving and doting father to his sons and daughters. Though in practice an Absolute Monarch wielding more power than Louis XIV or any other historical monarch did, Joe Grozen does not stand on ceremony and likes his friends and associates to address him simply as "Joe". It would never occur to him that there is anything wrong in his dominating the mass of slaves, as a rancher would not feel his domination of cattle was wrong.

  • When information is revealed that Haas is inadvertently responsible for forming what would later become a rogue element of the CIA responsible for the attack during her time as a senator, and also illegally creates a government task force to investigate it, her resignation is demanded.

  • Serves as the 53rd President in the mid to late 21st century.

  • Party: Unknown
  • Played by: Elle McKinnon

President Eleanor Hamilton

  • President in: No Men Beyond This Point
  • In the alternate timeline of the film, women gained the ability to reproduce parthenogenecally in 1953, with male leaders worldwide ignoring claims of "fatherless pregnancies" and accusing women of lying, leading to rioting and walkouts by women. Hamilton was elected as the first female president in 1964 after the global population became two-thirds female.
  • In 1967, her administration introduced the Worker Replacement Program, also called the "weeding out technique", whereby men in powerful positions had to be evaluated to see if they were actually qualified for their roles. As a result, hundreds of men lost their jobs and became homeless, with many opting to live in the countryside.
  • Hamilton was presumably the last president of the United States due to the creation of a world state under the leadership of the World's Governing Council sometime in the mid-1970s. The WGC would abolish all military forces and space programs, invest in environmental protection and cures for diseases including the common cold and cancer, establish reserves for the surviving male population, and mandate asexuality.
  • Party: Unknown

President George Hamilton

  • President in C.L. Moore's Greater Than Gods (1939)
  • In one of the story's alternate futures, he is a dictatorial president in the 23rd Century.
  • A charismatic general and military leader, Hamilton is elected president and then re-elected again and again to multiple terms spanning decades. President Hamilton believes in the subjugation of the many to the State, and dreams of a United World in which all races live in blind obedience and willing sacrifice for the common good. To further that aim, he makes the United States into a nation of soldiers, families being rewarded for producing many boys, using the Cory System of genetic manipulation which produces male babies who are conditioned from birth to accept and blindly obey authority. President Hamilton then embarks on the Great War aimed at unifying the world by force. He does not see its end, dying in a bombing raid on Washington D.C. and gasps out his last words: "Go on – unify the world!" while half the US lies in smoking ruins. He is succeeded by his vice president and second in command Philip Spaulding who completes the conquest and unification of the world. The title of "President" is than changed to "Leader" and the formality of elections is dispensed with.

President Andrew Harrison

  • President in Newt Gingrich and William Forstchen's book "1945"
  • In the alternate history of the novel, Adolf Hitler does not declare war on the United States after Pearl Harbor. As a result, President Franklin D. Roosevelt has no pretext to take the US into the European war – much as he would like to do it. In the following years, the US concentrates its full military potential on Japan alone, achieving a complete victory by conventional means. At the same time, Roosevelt downgrades the Manhattan Project and in 1945 the US is still far from possessing a nuclear bomb. Meanwhile, Nazi Germany decisively defeats the Soviet Union and forces Britain to sign a peace recognizing German domination of Europe.
  • Andrew Harrison, the junior senator from Nebraska, is surprisingly designated as heir by Roosevelt when FDR retires after winning the war against Japan (the book does not explain why Harrison is preferred over Harry Truman). Entering into office, Harrison is pragmatically ready to accept the new global status quo, Congress being in the mood of winding down military expenses after the victory over Japan. Harrison has a summit with Hitler in Reykjavík which superficially seems cordial and constructive – especially since Harrison speaks fluent German. However, in fact the Nazis are hatching nefarious plans, which are suspected only by a young officer, Lieutenant Commander James Martel – who is unable to convince his superiors in time, and who is far too junior to have any access to the president.
  • The storm suddenly breaks – German commandos under Otto Skorzeny destroy the nuclear facility at Oak Ridge, Tennessee, the Germans seize the uranium mines in the Congo region, and Germany seems ahead of the US in the race to gain a nuclear bomb. German forces under Erwin Rommel launch a massive surprise invasion of Britain and London is heavily bombed; the desperate Winston Churchill tells Harrison: "This is much worse than 1940!". Moreover, the president is unaware that German intelligence has used sexual blackmail to suborn the White House chief of staff and make him an active German spy, and the Germans discover that the British are reading their codes and completely change them.
  • The book ends with a cliffhanger, President Harrison faces one of the worst crises in American and world history. A promised sequel has not yet been published.

  • Is able to come to a diplomatic agreement with the new, moderate Soviet leadership at a conference in Zurich which begins the end of the Cold War. The agreement not only introduces the Scalar Resonance technology to the world, but also sets in motion the dismantling of the Soviet Empire within Eastern Europe in exchange for the United States, the UK and Canada removing their military installations from the continent.
