The Phantom President is a 1932 American pre-Code musical comedy and political satire film.

It was directed by Norman Taurog, starred George M. Cohan, Claudette Colbert, and Jimmy Durante, with songs by Richard Rodgers (music) and Lorenz Hart (lyrics).

During the filming, Cohan would sarcastically refer to Rodgers and Hart as "Gilbert and Sullivan".

The Phantom President tells the fictional story of American presidential candidates, based on the novel by George F. Worts.

A colorless stiff candidate for President is replaced in public appearances by a charismatic medicine show pitchman, from the day when the show included blackface makeup and eccentric dancing.
