James Monroe was the President of the United States during the War of 1812.Maybe Suldog can back me up on this--a question on the Jeopardy test was who was president during the war of 1812?! (Had I read this post beforehand, I would have got it right!)I really stunk it up for the first half, but there was a point in the second half where I feel like I got about 8 right in a 10-question span.
