 * After accidentally ejecting both the real Clinton and Dole into deep space while trying to rescue them, Homer exposes the two aliens to the world.

 * First female to be elected president, replacing President Morse.
 * Native of Lake Placid and former junior senator from New York.
 * Divorced from Aaron Keane, an anthropologist.
 * Votes in favor of the Iraq War, but later develops anti-war sentiments after her son Andrew Keane dies there.
 * Runs for president in 2016 against Ralph Warner, who later becomes her vice president.
 * Evacuated to a safehouse after a terrorist attack in Midtown Manhattan takes place near her transition offices, but later returns against the advice of the Secret Service.
 * Survives two assassination attempts orchestrated by rogue elements of the US government, the United States Army and the United States Intelligence Community. She is subjected to a smear campaign intended to discredit her before her inauguration or to force her resignation, with rogue intelligence officers and conservative talk-show host Brett O'Keefe spreading misinformation via bots that Andrew Keane died while deserting (instead of trying to save his wounded comrades). As a result of the attempts on her life, Keane becomes the first president to be inaugurated behind closed doors.
 * She later develops severe paranoia as a result of the attempts on her life, which culminates in her administration extending the PATRIOT Act and using the new provisions to carry out a mass arrest of government and intelligence officials she suspected conspired against her, detaining many without probable cause. This move causes her administration to be investigated by Arizona Senator Sam Paley, who desires to appoint a special prosecutor with regard to her actions.
 * She personally advocates that General Jamie McClendon, one of the main conspirators in her assassination attempt, should be given the death penalty during his court martial, and is infuriated upon hearing he is only given life imprisonment.
 * Keane orders O'Keefe's arrest, but he flees, continuing to broadcast his talk show whilst on the run. The manhunt ends in O'Keefe's arrest following a deadly shootout between the FBI and a family of anti-Keane O'Keefe fans in backwoods Virginia.
 * Her administration is later targeted by information warfare masterminded by the Russian government and the GRU in an attempt to trigger a constitutional crisis and to discredit and remove her from office. This campaign implicates her White House Chief of Staff David Wellington in the death of General McClendon, and leverages the Paley investigation by feeding him false information, and by manipulating Carrie Mathison, aggrieved by Keane's actions against the Intelligence Community, into presenting a fabricated link between Wellington and McClendon's death.
 * Machinations by Paley and Warner result in them attempting to get the Cabinet of the United States to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove Keane from office, arguing that her poor management shows she is unable to discharge the duties of the office. Keane attempts to circumvent this by firing certain members of the cabinet, but the Supreme Court of the United States rules that the method she employed to fire them was unlawful, and that they can remain. The 25th Amendment is officially invoked: Keane is removed and Warner takes over.
 * She is reinstated after testimony to the Senate Intelligence Committee by Russian agent Simone Martin absolves Keane of any wrongdoing, and fully reveals the extent of the Russian interference in her administration. However, knowing that her reputation has been tainted in the public eye and that the American people need a leader they can trust to save American democracy, she resigns in favor of Warner.

 * Suffers from a stroke while giving a televised address to the nation about the impending crisis before she can say anything about the actual asteroid.
 * The nation is told she had passed away, and Vice President Monroe Bennett assumes the presidency under the 25th Amendment.
 * Later revealed that her illness and stroke were orchestrated by Bennett, who had slowly been poisoning her with mercury through her asthma inhaler
 * Later revealed to be alive and recovering in secret, having been rescued by United States Secret Service agents loyal to her, who feared what those loyal to Bennett would do if they discovered she survived. The agents divert her upon arrival at George Washington University Hospital, where they convince her personal physician to tell the public she had died. Her family's Judaism, which forbids any desecration of a corpse, is used as the justification for her being buried without an autopsy being performed.

When the court is about to vote in Mackenzie's favour, he orchestrates a bombing of the building which seriously injures the Chief Justice, whose swing vote in the decision had yet to be announced.
 * After the Supreme Court bombing, the capital falls into chaos as infighting between United States Armed Forces factions loyal to Bennett and others to Mackenzie battle one another to take control. US Army and Secret Service officers loyal to Bennett are able to lock down and infiltrate the White House, capturing and detaining a defiant Mackenzie in the Oval Office.
 * As Bennett is about to address the nation, video footage of the now conscious Chief Justice is broadcast on all networks and cell phones, in which he confirms his vote in Mackenzie's favour, shifting the decision to 5–4 and rendering her the legal president. After a brief standoff, the soldiers accompanying Bennett realize they have been deceived and reaffirm their allegiance to Mackenzie.
 * Despite re-securing her presidency for a second time, she is shot and killed by a remote controlled sniper rifle while leaving a "Unity Rally" held to celebrate the supposed return to normalcy for her administration.
 * She is buried in Arlington National Cemetery in a highly televised funeral. Tanz assumes the presidency under the 25th Amendment after her death.

President Selina Meyer

 * 45th and 47th President of the United States in Veep (Season 3–5, 7)
 * Born Selina Catherine Eaton.
 * Married, and later divorced Andrew Meyer, the father of her daughter, Catherine.
 * Former Senator from Maryland who loses in her party's presidential primary to Stuart Hughes, and then becomes Hughes' running mate and eventual vice president.
 * She was initially sidelined within the Hughes administration, forced to abandon many of her initiatives including Senate filibuster reform and a Clean Jobs Bill at the behest of the president. She gained more influence after successfully campaigning during the 2014 midterm elections and ends up announcing her candidacy for president in 2016 after Hughes decides not to run again due to a spy scandal that threatened impeachment. She adopts the campaign slogan "Continuity with Change".
 * After Hughes resigns to care for his mentally ill wife, Meyer is inaugurated as the first female president, and appoints Senator Andrew Doyle as her vice president.
 * During her eight-month-long tenure, she proposed to introduce a far-reaching subsidized childcare program via the Families First Bill (also known as the Mommy Meyer Bill), funded through the scrapping of an outdated nuclear defense system costing $50,000,000,000. However, Congressional opposition due to the potential jobs losses this would incur, an accidental pledge to increase nuclear defense spending by $10,000,000,000 made during Meyer's inaugural State of the Union address after President Hughes' speech had been loaded onto a teleprompter by mistake, and public hostility to the bill led the White House to secretly lobby against it so that Meyer could win the upcoming election. During a congressional inquiry launched by Representative Moyes (who received the same information package from lobbyists Amy Brookheimer and Dan Egan and White House staffers Jonah Ryan and Richard Splett), Leigh Patterson, a former White House aide scapegoated for a Medileaks scandal, alleged that the 2016 Meyer campaign used confidential information for targeted campaigning aimed at bereaved parents, which Richard Splett accidentally confirmed. Communications Director Bill Ericsson was scapegoated for both the data breach and the use of lobbyists against the Families First Bill.
 * She narrowly wins her party's nomination and selects Senator Tom James as her running mate to replace Doyle (albeit after Governor Danny Chung of Minnesota declined, former Defense Secretary George Maddox proved himself to be a poor choice, and Meyer refused to nominate a female running mate), who on occasion eclipsed Meyer due to his folksy personality.
 * Meyer ties with Bill O'Brien when they both receive 269 electoral college votes in the 2016 residential election. A recount in Nevada not only maintained the Electoral College tie but lost Meyer her lead in the popular vote following the discovery of uncounted military absentee ballots in Washoe County stolen by a disgruntled postal worker over Meyer's closure of several post offices.
 * Whilst lobbying House Representatives for their support in the upcoming vote, it is revealed that Tom James was lobbying several to abstain in order to allow him to become president via the Senate vote. When privately questioned by Meyer, James said that he was motivated by Meyer's recent acts of incompetence; after a brief shouting match, Meyer and James have sex.
 * After Meyer unwittingly posts a tweet insulting O'Brien, she blames this faux pas on Chinese hackers, and subsequently imposes punitive sanctions. At a secret meeting at Camp David, President Lu Chi-Jung of China proposes to liberalise the governance of Tibet, establishing a system similar to that in Hong Kong, in exchange for the lifting of sanctions.
 * Meyer experiences another tie when the United States House of Representatives fails to reach a majority verdict on selecting who should become president. With the delegations for Missouri, Pennsylvania and Vermont abstaining, Meyer loses to O'Brien 22–25, but with O'Brien being one state's vote shy of winning. Meyer decided to let O'Brien win the House vote, preferring to run against him in four years rather than allow James to serve as president for upwards of twelve years, although by this point Congressman Ryan had already cast New Hampshire's vote for Meyer.
 * After the tie in the House, the Senate votes to appoint a vice president from the two presidential nominees' running mates (James and Montez) as per the 20th Amendment, prior to which Meyer privately agreed to serve as James's Vice President. The vote also results in a tie, which is broken by incumbent Vice President Andrew Doyle in his capacity as President of the Senate. Doyle selects Laura Montez, O'Brien's running mate and a member of the opposing party, as revenge against Meyer for backtracking on her offer to make him Secretary of State if she won the election.
 * As the office of president is vacant due to the tied House vote, and House Speaker Jim Marwood announces that a second vote to determine the president will not be cast, Montez immediately ascends to the presidency and replaces Meyer.
 * Post presidency, Meyer sets up the Meyer Fund, takes part in election monitoring on behalf of the United Nations in the Republic of Georgia (during which both candidates attempt to bribe her), and enters into a relationship with Qatari ambassador Mohammed Al Jaffar. However, shortly after the publication of Meyer's biography First Woman: A Woman First, Leon West publishes Mike McLintock's diary after he accidentally left it at the offices of The Washington Post. Despite numerous damning revelations, when the public is informed of Meyer's actions during her presidency that helped free Tibet from China, her popularity soars and gives her the confidence to run again in the 2020 presidential election. Initially running on the slogan "New Selina Now", she abandoned it in favour of "Man Up" after berating popular progressive US Senator from New York Kemi Talbot during a primary debate.
 * Meyer is presented with a lower ranking award from the Nobel Foundation for her actions in freeing Tibet, but during her time in Oslo a warrant for her arrest is issued by the International Criminal Court due to accusations of her administration committing war crimes by violating Pakistan airspace and using a drone to kill innocent civilians at a terrorist's wedding. She is able to escape back to the United States with help from the Finnish embassy and the President of Georgia, using Catherine and Marjorie's wedding as a distraction. Whilst Meyer's popularity rose after news of the drone strike became public, it dipped again when it was revealed that one of its casualties was an elephant.
 * She is able to narrowly secure her party's nomination for president during the 2020 National Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina, but she is forced to alienate and dismiss her entire former team, ruin the lives of her former friends and competitors and accept Jonah Ryan (who ran for the nomination on a populist, nativist platform) as her running mate. This was so that Meyer would avoid either nominating Talbot as her running mate or serving as Talbot's running mate herself.
 * Meyer defeats Montez and serves a single four-year term as president, which is achieved through election interference in collusion with China in exchange for the unchallenged re-annexation of Tibet; Montez, running against Meyer, would otherwise have been guaranteed re-election despite her own poor approval ratings, according to Chinese polling data. Meyer is the second president since Grover Cleveland to serve two non-consecutive terms.
 * Meyer's only full term was notable for the successful permanent overturning of same-sex marriage, resulting in a permanent rift with Catherine and her wife Marjorie (formerly part of Meyer's Secret Service detail), and the impeachment of Jonah Ryan (which Meyer may have encouraged behind the scenes).
 * Dies in 2045 of natural causes, reported as having died somewhere between the ages of 75 and 77 due to her constantly lying about her age. After resting in state at the United States Capitol, she is interred at her presidential library at Smith College, Massachusetts. Upon being interred in the crypt, coverage of her funeral is immediately pushed out of the news cycle by the death of Tom Hanks at the age of 88.
 * Played by: Julia Louis-Dreyfus

President Jeffrey Michener

 * President in: The Last Ship
 * Native of Evanston, Illinois.
 * The former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development under Barack Obama, he is in charge of establishing a safe zone in Doak Campbell Stadium in Tallahassee, Florida during the initial outbreak of the Red Flu. However, he organizes for his son to be transported to the stadium from an infected location in Ann Arbor, Michigan, causing a mass outbreak of the virus in the southern United States. His son and wife later die, and he is forced to kill his daughters to spare their suffering after they become infected with the Red Flu.
 * Naturally immune to the Red Flu, he is taken in and brainwashed into becoming a puppet of Sean Ramsay, leader of the quasi-fascist Immunes, who plan to murder all survivors who are not naturally immune. He was later rescued from the Immunes by United States Navy sailors from the USS Nathan James, and as the only surviving member of the presidential line of succession assumes the role of president after his rescue.
 * Attempts to commit suicide due to the guilt of mercy killing his family, but later recovers and supports the USS Nathan James in their mission to spread the cure and defeat the Immunes.
 * Declares St. Louis the new capital of the United States after he is officially sworn in as president in the season 2 finale and establishes the Old St. Louis Courthouse as the new White House.
 * His policies during the post-plague reconstruction of the United States, which include the rationing of food, the restriction on cash withdrawals from banks, and restriction of land ownership rights, are criticized by regional leaders across the country.
 * Apparently commits suicide after AMT reporter Jacob Barnes reveals his complicity in the Doak Campbell Stadium outbreak and is succeeded by Vice President Howard Oliver.
 * His "suicide" is later revealed to be an assassination, carried out by Secret Service agents loyal to Chief of Staff Allison Shaw and the regional leaders, who seek to disband the United States federal government. Their aim is to bring Oliver to power; as he still had surviving family and friends, he could be easier blackmailed into becoming a puppet for their cause.

He embarks on a failed rebellion that the Krolp crush in three days, dissolving the rump U.S. and embarking on their strip mining anyway.

President Laura Priscilla Montez

 * President in Veep (Season 6 onward)
 * Second female president after Selina Meyer
 * Born Laura Priscilla Cunningham just outside Cleveland, Ohio.
 * Former United States senator from New Mexico.
 * Married to Alejandro Montez, and by taking his surname falsely attempts to present herself as Hispanic to further her political career.
 * Chosen by Senator Bill O'Brien of Arizona as his running mate in the 2016 Presidential Election.
 * After a tie in the electoral college during the election, and a subsequent tie in the House of Representatives vote to determine who becomes president out of the two presidential nominees (Meyer and O'Brien), Montez is elected Vice President by the Senate in a tight vote and effectively becomes President after the House Speaker Jim Marwood refuses to hold another vote. In reality, the House would be constitutionally required to hold continuous votes until a President is elected.
 * Members of her Cabinet included Meyer's Vice President Andrew Doyle as Secretary of State (who voted for Montez as a tiebreaker as revenge against Meyer for reneging on her promise to appoint him as Secretary of State) and former EM Wheelright CEO Charlie Baird Jr. as Treasury Secretary (O'Brien's initial choice, who had an short-lived relationship with Meyer which ended after she decided not to bail out EM Wheelright, forcing it to declare bankruptcy).
 * Is awarded the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize after the freeing of Tibet earlier that year, though Meyer is the one who negotiated Tibet's independence.
 * During her presidency she presides over a damaging government shutdown instigated by Congressman for New Hampshire Jonah Ryan and his caucus, the Jeffersons, after they vote against a bill to raise the debt ceiling due to Ryan not being invited to the unveiling of Meyer's presidential portrait; after Ryan attempts to hold out for the abolition of daylight saving time, he loses the leadership of the Jeffersons, who reform as the Libertonians and agree to a deal with Montez to end the shutdown.
 * Following the death of Supreme Court Justice Tenny, Montez appoints former President Stuart Hughes to fill the vacancy, following avid press speculation that Meyer would be appointed.
 * After Mike McLintock's lost diary is leaked, it is revealed that Montez falsely took credit for freeing Tibet from the People's Republic of China from Meyer. This gives Meyer the confidence to run for President in 2020, despite the leak also revealing some damning revelations from her first tenure as President.
 * She loses to Meyer in the 2020 presidential election as a result of Chinese election interference in collusion with the Meyer campaign in exchange for the unchallenged re-annexation of Tibet, as secret Chinese polling data revealed that Meyer's nomination would have effectively guaranteed Montez's re-election otherwise, despite Montez's poor approval ratings.
 * She is later seen attending Meyers's funeral in 2045 at her presidential library in Smith College, Massachusetts. It is implied that she had undergone extensive cosmetic plastic surgery.
 * Claimed to be the first elected female President of the United States, as Meyer became president following the resignation of her predecessor, Stuart Hughes. She is the first person to be elected President despite not running for the position.
