With some knowledge of US history under my belt, I feel like Benjamin Harrison is probably the best answer - he's not only obscure but he doesn't really have any good reason to be not-obscure.

I guess I always knew Benjamin Harrison best for being the grandson of William Henry Harrison. Otherwise, as you said, he hasn't really done much that was notable. I'm from New York, but a little over a year ago I went on a road trip through a bunch of Midwestern cities, mostly as part of an attempt to go to every major league ballpark, but also to see anything notable in any of these places. Anyway, by far the most boring city that I went to was Indianapolis. When searching for things to do I saw that there was the house Benjamin Harrison lived in when he was elected president, so I decided to check it out and see what was there. He was born in Ohio but his entire career as a politician was in Indiana (which I hadn't realized). In spite of spending a couple hours at the Benjamin Harrison house (which is probably much longer than most people have thought about Benjamin Harrison), I still can't tell you much of anything that he did as president.

That being said, I voted Chester A. Arthur, because at least Benjamin has the grandson thing going for him.
