Ketinggian presiden dan calon presiden Amerika Syarikat
Rekod ketinggian presiden Amerika Syarikat dan calon presiden amat berguna untuk menilai peranan apa, jika ada, ketinggian yang diutamakan dalam pilihan raya presiden. Sesetengah pemerhati telah menyatakan bahawa calon lebih tinggi daripada dua parti utama cenderung diguna pakai dan berhujah ini adalah kerana keutamaan orang ramai untuk calon yang lebih tinggi.[1]
Presiden dengan ketinggian paling tinggi ialah Abraham Lincoln pada ukuran 6 kaki 4 inci (193 cm). Manakala, presiden dengan ketinggian paling pendek ialah James Madison pada ukuran 5 kaki 4 inci (163 cm).
Donald Trump, presiden terkini, adalah 6 kaki 3 inci (191 cm)[2] menurut ringkasan pemeriksaan fizikal rasmi pada tahun 2018 walaupun kad pendaftaran Perkhidmatan Terpilih 1964 menyatakan beliau adalah kira-kira 6 kaki 2 inci (188 cm).[3] Mike Pence, naib presiden terkini, adalah 5 kaki 10 inci (178 cm).[4]
Joe Biden, presiden terpilih terkini, adalah 5 kaki 11½ inci (182 cm) menurut ringkasan laporan pemeriksaan fizikal pada Disember 2019.[5]
