Franklin Pierce was the 14th President of the United States, serving from 1853 to 1857.
Franklin Pierce was a Democrat from New Hampshire who was elected to the presidency in 1852. He is considered by some historians to be one of the worst presidents in U.S. history due to his support of pro-slavery policies and his mishandling of the growing tensions between the North and South that eventually led to the Civil War.
