In this essay I will be analyzing the successes and failures of the Early Republic presidential administrations of Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe. In 1776, American colonies decided to declare independence from Britain. From 1776 to 1789, America had no true leader, although people had identified themselves as “presidents.” There was not an official U.S. president until George Washington in 1789.
