Who listed below was never a U.S. Secretary of State?

Alexander Hamilton (January 1755 or 1757 – July 1804) accomplished a great many personal undertakings. In fact, he was a Founding Father of the United States, chief staff aide to General George Washington, one of the most influential interpreters and promoters of the U.S. Constitution, the founder of the nation's financial system, the founder of the Federalist Party (the world's first voter-based political party), the founder of the United States Coast Guard, and the founder of The New York Post newspaper. Hamilton, however, never held the position of U.S. Secretary of State.

He was the first U.S. Secretary of the Treasury, and he was the primary author of economic policies during George Washington's administration.

His life was cut short when he was challenged to a duel in 1804 and mortally wounded by Aaron Burr, a former U.S. vice president (1801-1805).
