Inaugural Address Quick Facts The Presidents EA Contents FRANKLIN PIERCE Biography Franklin Pierce, (1804-1869), pers, 14th PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES . The youngest man up to his time to be elected president, Pierce was in office from 1853 to 1857, during a period of great national tension. After a triumphant early career that brought him to the U. S. SENATE at the age of 32, he had "retired" in 1842 and confined his political activities to his native state of New Hampshire. A dashing war hero with no enemies, he was selected as a "dark horse" candidate for president by a badly divided DEMOCRATIC PARTY Inexperienced and burdened by personal tragedy, Pierce was unable to cope with the glaring domestic issues of his administration, notably the conflict over slavery in the territories. Naturally amiable, he had little inclination to study or philosophize but preferred the conviviality of good fellowship and tended to make decisions based on expediency. He rarely challenged conventional attitudes or procedures. Stereotyped as weak and shallow, he probably was neither, but he was not equal to the task before him. Early Life Franklin Pierce, one of eight children of Benjamin and Anna Kendrick Pierce, was born in Hillsborough Lower Village, N. H., on Nov. 23, 1804. His father had served in the American Revolution and later, as a Jacksonian, became governor of New Hampshire. Franklin was educated at Hillsborough Center, Hancock Academy, and Bowdoin College, from which he graduated in 1824 after advancing from last place to fifth from the top of his class. He then studied law and was admitted to the New Hampshire bar in 1827.

Inaugural Address Quick Facts The Presidents GME Contents FRANKLIN PIERCE Biography Franklin Pierce, the 14th PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES (1853-57), served during a time of worsening sectional controversy that was exacerbated by the passage (1854) of the Kansas-Nebraska Act. Early Life and Political Career Pierce was born on Nov. 23, 1804, in Hillsborough (now Hillsboro), N.H., the son of Benjamin and Anna Kendrick Pierce. His father, a veteran of the American Revolution, later rose to a militia generalship and served two terms as governor of New Hampshire. After an academy education, Franklin entered Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine. He graduated in 1824, studied law, and in 1827 began practice in Hillsborough. In 1829, Pierce was elected to the state House of Representatives, and he served as its speaker in 1831 and 1832. Like his father, Franklin joined the ranks of the Jacksonian party and soon emerged as a state leader. He then served two terms in the U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES (1833-37) and took his seat in the U.S. SENATE in 1837 as the youngest member of that body.

I find the remark, "Tis distance lends enchantment to the view" is no less true of the political than of the natural world. The dangers of a concentration of all power in the general government of a confederacy so vast as ours are too obvious to be disregarded. In a body [like Congress] where there are more than one hundred talking lawyers, you can make no calculation upon the termination of any debate.

In which our hero, the plucky fourteenth president, becomes a latter-day Moses. by David Holzel Of all the annals in the life of Franklin Pierce, none are more obscure than those involving his relationship with the Jewish people. The Golden Age of Jews in America was 100 years in the future, and what existed was a world few of us today would recognize. On the day Pierce became president in March 1853 there were 30 states, and in none of them was there a deli making a decent hot pastrami on rye. You couldn’t get a bagel if your life depended on it. There was no Jewish Mother stereotype. No Alexander Portnoy or Sammie Glick . What some today derisively refer to as the "Jewish Lobby" was then only a vestibule. The country was a desert as far as Jewish shtick was concerned. In fact, it was to be a full 88 years before an American Jew was to make our people’s greatest contribution to this great land—the song "White Christmas." You see, of all the Jews in all the world, only 50,000 had found their way to the United States before word went out that Franklin Pierce had been elected 14
