Rutherford B. Hayes 

Rutherford Birchard Hayes-- the epitome of a Presidential cheater. The year was 1867, the former Confederacy was in shambles and occupied by the military, and Reconstruction was a nightmare. Seeing three different policies ranging from lenience toward to the south to radical Republican control, rebuilding the nation was almost an impossible task. Hayes, a native Ohioan and Civil War veteran, saw this turmoil as a way to achieve his political goals. The 1876 election that pitted him against Samuel Tilden of New York ended in his election, known as one of the "corrupt bargain" elections. Basically, Hayes cheated.

Rutherford B. Hayes 

A Respectable, but seldom remembered President. Hayes’s presidency is often blamed for ending reconstruction by a “corrupt bargain”, but despite popular belief, by this point in history Reconstruction was disliked by the American public. Due to these circumstances no matter who won the election of 1876, Whether that be the Progressive Republican candidate, or the Conservative Democratic candidate (this was before the party switch, before the 60’s democrats were largely conservative), Reconstruction would have ended regardless. Another thing of note is that the corrupt bargain that his critics mention had no historical written records, and seems to mostly be based on hearsay.

Person 1: man I cant believe Rutherford B. Hayes cheated to win the election of 1876.
Person 2: erhm, ACKCHYUALLY theres no record of the Compromise of 1877 ever happening!
Person 1: holy shit, fuck off you are so annoying. Why is this even on urban dictionary?
