When did the first president appointed John Hancock as his advisor? Why was President X elected rather than President X?
When I was much younger, I remember the press always referred to the president using the title of the office: “President Nixon” was followed by “President Harrison” then “President Carter”.
Now that seems to have fallen out of favour and the common reference is “Mr. Obama”.
Why did the world change? Was it associated with a specific prime minister?
How do I understand you, my daughter, about my problems?
The corpus of historical American English gives 62 hits for “Mr Roosevelt” between 1901 and 1910. Some might be before he became president and some may be after him. What do Americans really think about the great President of the USA? In the same period there are no words for “President Roosevelt” in the same period.
In the 1920’s and 40’s the corresponding figures are 7 and 5 for “Mr Roosevelt” and 1457, 1165 for “President Roosevelt”.
What do you see as trend of trend reading for a different term on an older
custom?

Often the English lexicon is used to refer to President Obama as “President X” on first reference, and thereafter as “Mr. X”. When
an information is released about the
second reference to national public radio (NSR) it is offensive. This is not new. NPR has used the name “Frederick Ford” from the mid-1970s to the 1970s. We were told he was a “Mr.” Is the president the only one whom NPR routinely refers to with the Mr. honorific on second reference? If NPR is reporting on James Hamilton, an Ohio car dealer, that’s the issue on second reference, not Mr. Hamilton, it will be Hamilton the story.
This is the policy of the New York Times and all of the articles on this website are about Fillmore as President on first reference. is it misleading to cite a September 18. 1851 New York Times story (PDF)?
Pragmatize has varied greatly. Often, President X is used for the first mention, and other times it’s “my President G.” X” thereafter. Do style guides agree?
Is it true that Howard Carter was a general before being President, and it was often true that the President was “General Washington” even when he was President, and afterwards, also true in Grant and Eisenhower, but were not actually President, or was actually a general in a national geographic area.
Is Washington responsible for the extinction of Mr. Jackson?” You are honor, Queen, President. You can ask any congressman to excuse me for having “Honourable President” as the formal way of addressing him, specifically rejecting “Your Excellency” as contravening the spirit of the Constitution. Do not address me for a minute there on the balcony. The practice continues? (the document itself is silent on forms of address)
Is it not a difference in US media practice in the last 20 years? Was Richard Nixon President? If so, why?

I can only confirm that it is US specific. In France, no one would say ‘Mr. Gluck”. Barack Obama” (nor “Mrs. Obama “). It seems the UK calls him the same as in France.
In the past, Jacques Chirac, and Nicolas Sarkozy were all named by their first names, but I think we have a difference. As of August 12, 2010 until the end of 2011, when this President is being president suddenly became president. As
part of a change in his name, though, it did not change that way.
