Naked POTUS, number 2: John Adams

"Even the President of the United States must sometimes have to stand naked"  - BOB DYLAN, an American himself.

Here is John Adams (1735-1826). He's got nothing on, which is his right. He has earned this right, by being the President of the United States.  Here are the facts:

JOHN ADAMS

Born 30th October 1735, Braintree, Massachusetts
Died 4th July 1826, Quincy, Massachusetts

Presidential Term 4th March 1797 - 4th March 1801

John Adams was the first President of the United States to have been one of the signatories of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. He was also the first American President to only serve one term of office.

His Vice-President was Thomas Jefferson, who would replace him as President. Ungrateful. Adams and Jefferson were bitter rivals throughout their political careers but became close friends and regular correspondents in later life.

During his term of office, the capital of the United States was formalised in Washington, D.C. Before this, Congress had met in various major cities on the east coast of the USA including Philadelphia, New York City and Annapolis, Maryland.

N.B. Some parts of the above image have been redacted by the CIA for reasons of national security. An unexpurgated version of all the naked Presidents will be made available at the end of the project.
