The President of the United States was the head of state and government in the United States of America, as well as the chief officer of the executive branch and the commander-in-chief of the United States military.

The office was inaugurated on 30 April, 1789 with George Washington assuming the title. Unlike the President of Earth, Presidents of the United States were elected indirectly through Electoral College system. Upon election, the presidents lived and worked at the White House in Washington, D.C. and carried out duties assigned by the United States Constitution.

By the 31st century the office has been replaced by the office of President of Earth, and a number of former presidents live in the Hall of Presidents at the Head Museum. Many former U.S. presidents are not eligible to run for Earth president due to the Constitutional prohibition on anybody serving more than two terms. However, former U.S. president Richard Nixon got around this issue by getting a new body in the 3000 presidential election (2ACV03).
