John Lucas Smith (born: August 9, 2556) is an American politician who served as the 57th President of Earth and 161st President of the United States from 2627 to 2629. Smith became President after the resignation of embattled President Cosmo Emperio. Smith as President set about an agenda of slashing corporate taxes, raising taxes for the middle class, and eroding environmental regulations. Smith's policies were regarded as extremely unpopular and his temperament in office was deemed "un-presidential". John Smith was an avid proponent of the U.S. withdrawing from the United Nations, United States of Earth, NATO, and most other international organizations. He favored withdrawing America's military from around the world and closing the nearly 3,000 American military bases across the planet.
Smith would enter the Presidential race of 2638. Abel Upshur was chosen as Smith's running mate and the both of them would run a "campaign of total fire". One of Smith's most controversial proposals was the pulling of all aid to Germany while seizing German property and business as revenge for Doomsday. This proposal would lead to the Bundestag to, for the first time ever, strip an American President of his title as First Servant of State of Germany. Smith would narrowly lose the Boxer parties nomination and he would spend the rest of his term lashing out and acting in an erratic manner. 
After leaving office Smith had an approval rating of 9%. He is ranked as the most unpopular modern President of the past 50 years. Smith has written several books since leaving office.

==Foreign Policy==
The Smith Administration's foreign policy was extremely hostile to global affairs and deeply isolationist. Smith supported pulling the United States from every single international organization and the closing of borders and halting of immigration.
==Border Policy==
On October 15th 2627, Smith issued an Executive Order to close the United States border with Mexico. Smith declared an immigration crisis and mobilized the National Guards of the States of Sonora, Chihuahua, Texas, Yucatan, and Belize at the Southern Border. Venezuela at the Columbian border. Santo Domingo at the Haitian border. Albania and Greece at the European border. Liberia and Rwanda at the African border. As well as Iraq, Afghanistan, Qatar, Bahrain, South Vietnam, Siberia and North Korea.
This emergency declaration lasted nine months and during that time U.S. Border Patrol was accused of over 1,000+ cases of abuse and mistreatment. During this time Smith's approval rating continued to decline from 46% in October to 33% in December.
