Grover Cleveland: The Twice Elected President (1837 - 1908)

Grover Cleveland stands out as the only U.S. President to serve two non-consecutive terms, making him both the 22nd and 24th president. His presidencies were marked by a commitment to integrity and reform, aiming to dismantle corruption and patronage in government. Cleveland was a staunch defender of the gold standard and fiscal responsibility, often vetoing bills he viewed as wasteful spending. Despite facing criticism for his handling of the economic downturn during his second term and his intervention in the Pullman Strike, he is remembered for his dedication to principles over party politics. After leaving office, Cleveland retired to Princeton, New Jersey, where he remained a respected elder statesman until his death in 1908.
