President of the United States


 * "President" redirects here. For analogous positions in other countries, see President of the Russian Federation or President of the Islamic Republic of Kamistan.

The President of the United States, the highest ranking member of the Executive Branch in the United States and Commander-in-Chief of the United States Armed Forces, was occupied by David Palmer during Days 2 and 3, John Keeler during Day 4, Charles Logan during Day 5, Wayne Palmer during Day 6, and Allison Taylor during Redemption and Days 7 and 8.

Various Presidents had to contend with numerous terrorist threats, both domestic and foreign, and several were victims of terrorist attacks themselves.

Background information and notes

 * As Bill Buchanan noted, Hal Gardner was to be sworn in as President following Charles Logan's resignation, although this remains unconfirmed. He is included on this page here for the sake of completeness and because no reason was ever given to assume he didn't become President.
 * No President on 24 has ever been reelected. David Palmer did not run for reelection, John Keeler and Wayne Palmer were incapacitated, Charles Logan was arrested and removed from office, Noah Daniels lost to Allison Taylor, and Allison Taylor had to resign from office.
 * David Palmer is the only President to serve a full term on 24.
 * Season 1 is the only season not to feature an on-screen President.
