James Monroe is the "Era of good feeling " president and he was reelected in1820.
Well, if adding nearly a million square miles of territory to the United States makes one a good president, then he certainly was. If waging aggressive war is incompatible with being one, then he wasn't. You pays your money and you takes your choice.
because he thought it would be good for his family and money life or whatever LOL
Polk had a good reason for avoiding war with britain over Oregon. By 1846, he had so much bigger troubles brewing with Mexico over Texas..........

Polk was not in good health while he was president he did not feel good physically. As a president he had reason to feel good since he accomplished virtually everything that he had set out to do in just one term.
James Polk from Tennessee saw the United States stretch from sea to shining sea in one term.
Andrew Jackson helped James Polk's campaign by speaking on his behalf whenever he could. That might have helped Polk become the President of the United States. James Polk was also a good speaker and the fact that he married Sarah Childress-Polk might also have made a difference in his election.
The exact cause of his death is not known. Cholera seems to be a good possibility, He suffered from diarrhea, intestinal cramps and general weakness which became progressively worse. He had a long record of intestinal problems and was not in the best of health for the young man that he was.
Ex-President Martin Van Buren was the front runner in 1844 but he could not get the necessary two-thirds of the vote. Lewis Cass picked up steam and led on the fifth ballot, but he also could not get the necessary two-thirds. Eventually they turned to James Polk and he won on the ninth ballot. He was considered a dark horse candidate, but actually had good credentials, having served as in Congress for 14 years, two terms as Speaker of the House and governor of Tennessee. The Whigs won in 1840, but the President Harrison died and vice-president Tyler was not effective, so the Democrats were in a good position to win.

he was a good president
1. James K. Polk is a much underrated president who fulfilled all of his campaign promises to an extent. He was a major benefactor to the nation, especially in land gain. This includes the Annexation of Texas, lands gained from the Mexican-American War, Oregon Territory and even tried to buy Cuba from Spain. The Mexican-American War was a huge success to his administration, with quick victories the more superior American army led the largest seaborne invasion and marched into and sacked Mexico City. Polk on the domestic side reduced tariffs and reestablished the Independent Treasury System. Every President has cons to his term and Polk did not receive the "54-40 parallel as intended but instead got the "49th. Polk was an advocate of slavery and was ridiculed for it yet in one term he completed a lot more good than harm.
