Ulysses S. Grant – 130
You can get an idea of how smart we’re talking about when it comes to American presidents when you consider that the so-called ‘least smart’ president on this list still has an IQ of 130 – a full 15 points above average. Ulysses S. Grant, the 18th president of the United States, was a former Union Army commanding general during the Civil War. When he was in office from 1869 to 1877, he was extremely popular. He made a name for himself a few years after graduating from West Point when he served in the Mexican-American War. He became the country’s president at the age of 47, making him the country’s youngest president. Moral authority, international relations, public persuasion, and pursuing equal justice for all earned him high marks. The general public remembers him as an upright man who opposed the Ku Klux Klan. Many people also point out that he was the first president to appoint African-American and Jewish-American officials.
