Today, James Buchanan is pretty much universally disliked by anyone with at least a passing interest in Presidential history. His weakness in preventing the secession of states, coupled with his refusal to take a strong stance one way or the other regarding slavery and its expansion whilst in office contributing to his rather lacklustre legacy. Your challenge today is to fix that; make James Buchanan one of the most beloved and well-regarded Presidents in US history. He can be elected at any time or in any manner that you please (as well as assassinated if you so wish); however, he must be able to complete at least one full term of office before anything were to happen to him.
