Martin Van Buren – IQ 146
Martin Van Buren was the 8th president of the US and is famous for being the man who founded the Democratic Party. While he was pretty intelligent if his IQ figure is anything to go by, he was not all that popular among his country people, and he didn’t manage to secure a second term in the White House.
Van Buren might have had an uneventful time as the leader of the free world nation, but he contributed massively to the political sphere by introducing a party that is one of the most popular factions to date. If that isn’t an impact, we don’t know what is.
