    About James Buchanan

    James Buchanan was an American lawyer, diplomat, and politician who served as the fifteenth president of the United States from 1857 to 1861. Born in Cove Gap, Pennsylvania, in 1791, he built a long public career within the Democratic Party before assuming the presidency. Prior to his chief executive role, Buchanan represented Pennsylvania in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. Internationally known for his extensive diplomatic work, he served as United States Minister to Russia, Secretary of State under President James K. Polk, and Minister to Great Britain. His presidency was dominated by escalating sectional conflicts over slavery. Buchanan supported the Dred Scott decision and sought Kansas's admission as a slave state. His administration proved unable to halt the national fracture, leading to Southern secession following Abraham Lincoln's election in 1860. Buchanan retired to Pennsylvania in 1861 and died in 1868.
