      Edit: I’m still wrong. But this was a shower thought. There’s a reason this community isn’t called “well thought out comments”

        Don’t correct that. He’s wrong. It’s way more than 46, most multi-term presidents defeated several different contenders.

        Edit: I got 63 white men and 1 white woman, not counting pre 12th amendment elections, not counting minor candidates who didn’t win any states electors. There’s a lot more if you include minor candidates, but then one of them would be Cynthia McKinney who is a black woman.

      Statistically it probably wasn’t 45 men by today’s definition.
