If you start the list of Democrats with Andrew Jackson, then none of the first six presidents were either Democtrat or Republican. Nor of course, were the Whig Presidents WH Harrison, Tyler, Taylor and Fillmore. So ten in all Democrats sometimes confuse the issue by claiming to be lineal descendants of Jefferson's "Democratic Republicans". If you take that seriously (don't) then Jefferson, Madison, Monroe and perhaps JQ Adams should be omitted from the list. Andrew Johnson was elected VP as a "Unionist", but this was just the Republican Party with a few pro-War Democrats added on, so he doesn't really count. As president, his administration was entitrely Republican.
