Throughout America’s history we have had presidents who have led us through wars, economic hardship, national tragedies and more.
In honor of Presidents’ Day, The Horn News has compiled a list of all the presidents in U.S. history — and we want to know who you think was the greatest.
Was it one of the founding fathers who built our great nation? Or the “Great Emancipator,” Abraham Lincoln? Or Ronald Reagan, for defeating the Soviets?
Cast your vote below, and we’ll be publishing the list of the top 10 American presidents, chosen by our readers.
Franklin Roosevelt had WWII on two fronts and the Great Depression to deal with. He got us through both with victory.
So true
When will a so-called learned website understand that Harry Truman HAD NO MIDDLE NAME!! It is written as :
Harry S Truman….no period after the S! Check it out! Even the battleship named after him is correctly named.
S.L. McGraw: Truman’s “middle name” was an initial, “S.” The ship named for him is an aircraft carrier, not a battleship (the U.S. is no longer building “battleships,” which, in any event, are named for states, not for people).
This was not intended as a comedy site, so why did some clowns even consider Obama, the worst criminal in chief ever, at all?
And regardless of what some think, Lincoln hurt this country for many generations by freeing the slaves before we could civilize them. Now look at the mess we are in.
Loved it….sad part is you’re absolutely correct.
I agree
I WILL go along with that.
Amen to that!!!!
You are so right , Pancho !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Agreed
Your comment about obummer is true, but the rest was uncalled for and I am a white man.
Then you should be astute enough to realize white men, through vote getting govt programs have done more to destroy the family integrity of the black race than slavery ever did.
The welfare system set up by the democrats destroyed the black family. Prior to the welfare system the black family was 90% + intact. Within 10 years of the welfare system the black family was under 40% intact. The only way a black mother could receive her welfare checks is if she was a single mother with children. This is what destroy the black family. The democrats strive to make everyone dependent upon the government. This will never work, it will merely take our freedom away.
Yes, that’s very true, and it was established that way by democrats so as to keep the black person under the dems control, makeing black people to rely on them for just about everything, but never able to get very far.
Hey @ralph. It’s a pity you feel that way, but @Pancho is 120% correct. Just a reminder for all Non-24s, like Raph, Remember Ferguson, NY, LA, and FL, to name a few. It’s a pity the Muslim president elected didn’t get what Lincoln did and the reason is that we didn’t want another martir. We already have Lincoln and MLK, Jr.
It’s a sad testament to how poorly most Americans are educated in history (and science). G. Washington, A. Lincoln & FDR are consistently rated A^; T. Rossevelt often an A^ , but sometimes just A. R.Reagan has never been rated as A^ and in spite of Iran-Contra, should be considered a great A.
Earthstarmann: Not that I don’t agree that most Americans are poorly educated in history and science, but if you’re implying that you are not similarly poorly educated, it is surprising that you are unaware that all those “best” and “worst” lists are composed by liberal academicians (college professors), and consequently all those lists are politically biased to the left.
So you will always get a Lincoln or an FDR, but almost never a Reagan, on a “best” list, and you will always get southern sympathizer Buchanan on a “worst” list.
Pancho, in the same token as you think of Obama,this not a comedy site,for comedies why do you think Ronald Reagan was a great president? Is it because he was a war monger? Think twice.
Poncho, what do you mean, “civilize the slaves before they were released”? They were civilized but they were slaves and they could not live on their own because they belonged to white people,. How sad that is if you think about it. BUT FOR THE GRACE OF GOD GO YOU! I’m a white woman and feel, after all these years, so bad for that in our history and their history.
ELIZABETH VALENTINO –
You’re probably not white. If you were white you would know that it was the black Africans & Muslims who trapped, enslaved & sold Africans. The first slave owner in America was a black man.
It was also Muslims who enslaved whites & sold them as slaves. Think Barbary Pirates.
You would also appreciate the fact that it was white people in America who freed the slaves. If this country had originally been settled by Muslims and black Africans, slavery would probably still exist in America today.
ELIZABETH
YOU ARE TOTALLY RIGHT ABOUT BLACKS IN AFRICA, THEY SOLD THEIR OWN PEOPLE FOR A PRIFOT, BUT BLACK AMERICA WANT TO BLAME SOMEONE SO WHY NOT THE WHITES, EVERYONE WANTS TO BLAME SOMEONE FOR THEIR PROBLEMS, INSTEAD OF REALLY SAYING WHAT HAPPENED… AND YOU ARE RIGHT ABOUT THE MUSLIMS ALSO
True and now we have the Muslim president that has degraded his own race and is also a Muslim lover.
I am white also and feel for that part of history – but – if it wasn’t for the blacks selling their own people to white people, they wouldn’t be here. Even the blacks had slaves ( I prefer to call them servants). Slaves go way back in history and if you really think about it – we are all slaves to this day in one way or another. Do we have more or less freedoms today?
what about the Indians, white government killed them!
Very true!
“What we or “Who” “We” were supposed to be making THE “SLAVES” CIVILIZED??
The greatest American was George Washington—without him, there would be no USA. However, a decade ago, the entire USA voted Reagan as being the greatest American.
Reagan certainly was a great President because of the Cold War successes—that was a dangerous time.. . Lincoln and FDR had probably the greatest systemic challenges—and they were successful. IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT FOR ME TO CHOOSE ONE OF THE THREE AS THE GREATEST PRESIDENT.
Still aren’t Civilized! But, Neither are the Political Bush Family!
Actually, they were going to return the slaves to Africa, but decided against it. It’s kind of like allowing foreign illegals to stay here now instead of sending them back to their homelands. BIG MISTAKE! The good ones could come back legally if they desire.
I hope we don’t make another huge mistake!
No Amnesty! No Immigration Reform! No pathway to citizenship.
TRUMP 2016
Trump 2016 all the way. And did you know there is something that Te d Cruz doesn’t want you to know. Rafael fEdward Cruz. Is his real name not Ted he is lieing. Jeb acts like a spoiled brat. Rubio wants Immagration. He is too young. Can’t stand kasic. The Doc is a nice guy .
Jeb is behaving like a mamy’s boy, not like a real man who would be the Commander in Chief.
Our country need a tough smart president. Donald Trump is the only one who could do the job.
Trump all the way!
Please use spell check to be taken seriously.
Sorry but Ted Cruz doesn’t care if you know his full name or just the one he goes by. It’s in his book, if he didn’t want anyone to know about it then he sure wouldn’t have put it in there & has the whole thing on how & where “Ted” come about. Know what your talking about before running your mouth or maybe you knew that & wanted to be like your so-called “candidate” & just run your mouth spouting things that are either out right lies or things you know nothing about but change your story down the line depending on what best suits your situation at the time. Cruz on the other hand says what he means & does what he says & does have a proven track record since before being in the Senate & while there too. You want entertainment watch Celebrity Apprentice reruns or go to a movie but you don’t put another liberal democrat in the Oval Office ever in my opinion but especially now after all the damage Barry has done as he’s working on finishing his 2nd term that again in my opinion he never won to begin with. Ted Cruz, not just the best candidate but the only candidate & best chance of turning things around. Ted Cruz 2016 & 2020!
Is this really you? Would DJ Trump actually be posting here?
Lincoln only emancipated slaves in the Confederacy. All others in American territories and in th north remained enslaved. Why do people not acknowledge this when saying he freed the slaves? Because it is an inconvenient truth that shows Lincoln for the partisan he truly was.
Amen.
The mess we are in is because of the so called fore- fathers before Abe Lincoln of this country who took it upon themselves to go to another country to kidnap the Africans from their native land then put them in bondage brought them here and claimed them as their slaves. Those people didn’t ask to come here nor did they have a say in the matter. But you really think that they were not civilized before they got here? Think again; I’m talking Queens and Kings in their native land. All because of their skin color and their language bearers that the white men didn’t understand or they were intimidated by them just as they are now today, but the white men who kidnap them didn’t and could have cared less all they want was the dollar from the profit that they have received from the ignorant white men who purchased them. So stop hating individuals because of their skin tones, languages and why they are here In the United States. If you get to Heaven you will know that God is not a White Man. He is all colors, besides we are all made in his image. Genesis 1;26. May God be with you Always!
Must of been the Illegals and Freebie Society.
you are out of your mind. we have had 150 years to in your words “civilize” the slaves. you have had your whole life to CIVILIZE yourself and have obviously failed!!!!!!!!!!! Lincoln was by far our greatest president followed by Ronald Reagan.
LMAO !@!
your right but so wrong to LINCOLN A DEM. GARFIELD A REP. AND KENNEDY A DEM. WASN’T ASSASSINATED BEFORE THERE TERM WAS UP ALL THREE WOULD HAVE DIFFERENCE IN BLACKS WAY OF LIFE GARFIELD WOULD HAVE DONE THE MOST HE WAS A GENERAL IN THE CIVIL WAR AND THE BLACKS LIKE HIM AND SAID THEY WOULD WORK SOUND CRAZY READ YOUR HISTORY SAD BUT TRUE THESE THREE PRESIDENTS COULD HAVE CHANGED OUR HISTORY OF TODAY MAYBE JUST MAYBE THERE WOULDN’T BE A CARTER JOHNSON AND OBAMA GARFIELD DIDN’T SERVE 200DAYS OF HIS FIRST YEAR
You’re absolutely right. That’s why I voted for John Tyler, who was a member of Jefferson Davis’ Confederate Cabinet. I would have voted for Davis if he was on the list though.
Your views is arrogant and self-centered. President Lincoln is the greatest American President who fough for the freedom and rights of every american citizens in accordance to the U.S. Constitution. So be thankful that you enjoy your freedom today as an American citizen.
Jim: Remembering that the “Civil War amendments” came after the Civil War, and that slaves are not citizens, where in the Constitution are “the freedom and rights of every American citizen” that Lincoln “fought for…in accordance with the U.S. Constitution”?
I went to school when they actually “taught” true history…….not this politically correct crap. I learned that black people sold the slaves to Americans. I learned that Lincoln may have “freed” the slaves, but what did he free them to? There were no jobs for freed slaves, they had no income, they had no homes to go to. Exactly how were they supposed to survive and support themselves? Not much has changed, other than government dependency!
Today’s world presents with a similar problem with the college graduate. They graduate, but have no jobs, no place to live, (other than with parents), no income, no way to support themselves and end up as government dependents. Again, not much has changed……..America needs to wake up and take care of America and NOT other countries!
YAY! Absolutely correct. Obama is the worst president in history. He said “I will continue to do my job” When did he ever do his job? Look at ObamaCare, it stinks, look at SS, it will stinks soon worse then it does now. He lets anyone into this country especially Muslims because he is one and then WE support them totally and they are illegally here. And to address the nation and say that Donald Trump will not to be president makes me ill. How the hell does he know when we don’t know yet but Obama looks at the polls you idiot. I can’t wait for Obama care’s term to over as it stinks. Last I heard when in Texas autopsies’ were required by the state so why didn’t the judge have one? That’s an Obama cover up for whatever reason. I hope to high heaven you don’t get to elect a new one and the next president does. You know nothing about all the wars and what to do about them. YES WAKE UP AMERICA AND TAKE CARE OF US, NOT OTHER COUNTRIES! Stop immigration! You have not one damn thing for our country. I am so happy your term is almost up and when it is I will celebrate big time. I am totally disabled and get squat but you can give to every one outside this country? You are one black muslin that should NEVER have gotten into office and how you did is beyond me. I would love to have your email Obama, not that you would ever read it but at least I’d have my say which is a whole lot.
Hey! The best presidentent isn’t even listed. I, of course, refer to our great president, Jefferson Davis!
The blindness continues. Reagan is at the top. We need to analyze how one president whose actions have been and will turn out to be have been so wrong and so destructive could still poll so high. Trickle down does not work and never will. Lowering taxes on the wealthy has caused so much destructive speculation. Deregulation and not enforcing even the rules that are left is destructive and arse backwards. The propaganda machine of the main stream media has a lot of responsibility/blame here. It reminds me of the Israeli propaganda machine that has managed to steal people’s lands, round them up in a tight space, abuse them to no end, steal their water and their best agricultural lands and the minute a few of them rebel, they have managed to get Americans and most of their politicians to feel sorry for the apartheid regime and blame everything on the Palestinians. How is that possible? How long do we allow this madness to go on. Oh and by the way have you heard that Marco Rubio’s only accomplishments have been to bring forth legislation to rename two buildings with the Reagan name!
Your response is not too clear, but seems to be against Reagan. He was clearly the best president in most of our lifetimes. Ever hear of the Berlin wall? That Obama could even be on this list is an abomination. His only accomplishment s taking Carter’s title away as worst president in the modern era.
Your the blind man
Obama has been the best for the 1% so why blame Reagan?
So what good did he do for the 1%?
ARE YOU KIDDING?
The liberal left’s Kenysian economics is a fantasy based on non fact from a Bi-polor non economist with zero education. Trickle down exconomics DO work unless of course you get the libs in f-ing it up woth more government meddling. Free market Capitalism is the most empowering force on people’s wealth. NOT income equality because you could redistribute wealth today and 3 months from now the same educated, smart free market capitalists would own everything they squander
Case in point…no one ever got a job from a POOR man.
You are correct that Reagan was not the greatest president. However, you are very wrong on your economics. http://www.mises.org could help you should you decide to learn anything on economics. Government IS the problem.
You must be an Obama sheep, Eric.
Well obviously anti semetic, and denying Israels right exsist. That’s ok. It called freedom of expression.
you must have a sad, sad hateful life. My god protect you
You have obviously been drinking the liberal cool-aid! The Democrats have always believed in overtaxing the working class and give away the product of our work to lazy, entitled, irresponsible people, while Ronald Reagan believed in not only keeping the fruit of our labor, but also reducing the amount of government. That’s why he’s ranked so high! You’re probably one of those people who believe that Obama has been doing a good “job” while ignoring his irresponsibility and ignoring that he has been the worst, even worse than Jimmy Carter, and has divided this country more than ever. His programs of division created by racism, entitlement, social status and fiscal irresponsibility have brought only shame and ridicule to this country. Its a shame that the majority of people like you do not really study the realities that affect this country and base their opinion only on what a totally biased, pre-chewed information thats given by the corrupt media. Wake up! Before it’s too late!
Eric has it correct. Too many people looking for Superman to appear and so many looking back at Reagan as a form of superman. The only thing “trickle down economics did/has done, is leave a nasty yellow stain on some bright shiny shoes. There is not a man or woman in DC who can pull us out of this horrendous mess America is in. We can gang up on Obama with some of the worst actions forced on Americans, but even with a short memory, remember, many of the culture changing decisions have been in process over the last several administrations. One that stands out the most destructive; the elimination of our one true God in our schools, public places, etc., has been, and continues to be most devastating to every American in the process. Our only hope is praying God will forgive America for our direction has changed dramatically to the left.
I’ve been taught to never argue with a fool, fool!
The civil war was fought because 11 southern states walked away from Congress when Lincoln was illegally installed as Pres. He was the first BAR appointed lawyer to hold office.This was very clearly an illegal act as no BAR lawyers were allowed to hold office because of their sworn allegiance to a foreign crown.
The reason why Reagan is at the top is because our economy under his policies were flourishing. His policies caused our job creators to flourish and expand their companies which in turn created a lot of jobs in the private sector. Most people including our college graduates had jobs back in his days, me included. When the government hits our job creators with more and more regulations it increases their costs of operations and causes them to either lay people off, go out of business or leave this country. You obviously are listening to the wrong people for you information.
There is no race called Palestinians. They are from Jordan, Syria, and Egypt that migrated to that region and their countries will not let them come back. The Romans dispersed the Jews from their land in 70 AD only to return after WWII. to reclaim it and rename it Israel. What they occupy now is only a portion of what God gave Abraham. I’m trying to keep this brief because I’m sure your attention span is short. You may have a PHD from the finest university but if you don’t know the Bible you cannot make sound judgements, which is obvious from our political leaders today. P.S. Trickle Down economics does work. We had the strongest middle class during Reagans time in office. Wealthy people invest their money to make more money which creates jobs and you can’t tax small business so much that it puts them out of business because they are the largest job creators.
excellent, excellent, excellent………….
“Trickle down does not work and never will.” Oh, but it did. Where were you?
That is a good thing. No lobbyists must own him.
Roosevelt’s policies prolonged the Great Depression.
Much like Obama’s policies keep our economy in stagnation today.
Wrong!!! Harry Truman got us to the end of WW2 by bombing Japan and saving thousands of American soldiers’ lives.
I think he was instrumental in getting the Marshall Plan going also.
Franklin gave us. retirement fund that would help American people in their senior years
Yes, he was a great president. But he signed a bill responsible for Manzanar internment camps, which was a horrible injustice to innocent Japanese-Americans.
Trump knows how stupid certain politicians are and I can see how stupid some voters are. Obama is without question the worst president in American history. Democrats have been brainwashed by the media for several years and it looks like there brains don’t function anymore, to make an educated, self conscious decision. What a shame, but this is the world we have to live in!
Totally agree
Yeah! He set us up. England encouraged the situation. The American Cabinet was filled with Communists. WE turned away boats filled with Jews seeking asylum and sent them back to the Nazis. There is much more in the history books. Washington had it clear about alliances.
Lindajm
FDR saw that we WON WWII. He saved us from economic depression. That’s the bottom line.
Actually, the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard has just opened records that showed FDR programs lengthened the Depression by 7 yrs
Actually. It was Harry Truman the one that ended WW2. But Roosevelt saw most of it, God bless them both!
YOU ARE 100% CORRECT. WE ARE LUCKY TO OF HAD FDR
You wouldn’t say that if you had family die at PEARL. He let it happen !
WWII saved us from the Depression. Without it, FDR would have been an economic Obama.
I liked Reagan and voted for him. However, Reagan’s worst day in office can’t compare to FDR’s Great Depression and WWII.
I voted Truman. Think about it. He didn’t take any crap from the “home heros in wating” and he stuck to his guns with controlling the vultures waiting to suck in all the $$$ from disarmament. The Marshall Plan should have been a lesson in Détente 101.. most of the comments I’ve read are either racist or a result of being ignorant of the situation because you weren’t born yet and the history studies given you were a result of school systems bent on being “proper’ not to offend anyone.Somewhere, sometime you people will get real. When ISIS sticks a “whatever up your backside” your foodstamps and free “perks” will be useless. As Mark Twain said,” I would never wish for a person’s demise, but there are some obituraries I would read with great pleasure”
Washington was the best, Lincoln was the worst. He was a war criminal and cost 750,000 Americans their lives. Prez POS is as bad as Lincoln.
FDR gave us BLOATED, extra-constitutional federal government, extended AND deepened the depression, and provided the greased skids to where we are now. The New Deal should have been name “The Screw Deal” as we’ve been screwed ever since.
If George Washington had not got it right, where would we be today? My preference is Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
“WRONG” he helped create the Great Depression……….He was bought and paid for and owned by the banks!
Franklin Roosevelt created WWII. If he had just kept his nose out of the China situation and continued the trade with Japan no world war would have occurred. But he, in fact, wanted to be known as a war president as he stated to his cabinet at his first cabinet meeting in April, 1933.
But, by aggravating Japan in several ways, he forced Japan to attack and, therefore, used the back door to the European war. What do I mean “backdoor?” Well, he had stated many times, especially in the 1940 presidential campaign, that “our boys would never set foot in the European War zone.” But, since Japan and Germany had a treaty to come to each others aid, Hitler was required to join Japan in their war with the U.S. even though he really didn’t want to.
Ask yourself, why did Roosevelt send 70% of our men and material to Europe When Japan was the one who attacked the U.S.? Be honest with your answer.
FDR prolonged the Great Depression with high taxes and policies that were detrimental to the economy and discouraged investment. He was a liar and hid is disability from polio not to mention his mistresses and philandering.
He created the hideous interment camps for the Japanese. His arrogance caused him to run for 3rd an 4th terms instead of keeping with precedent and only 2 terms set by Washington.
Lincoln held the union together and ended slavery. Had he not been assassinated Reconstruction would not have been much more successful.
Ron the Con wasn’t even close to being great, he just has all republicans so fooled that they think he was great, typical of the uninformed public who listen to right winged propaganda.
accepted that FDR did some extraordinary work for the country. i think Reagan gets praised for destroying the USSR. but, just see what his internal policies did to his country? i think JFK was taking some radical steps for his country, and very likely he died because there were some who didn’t like what he was doing. “don’t ask what your country can do for you. ask what you can do for your country”. JFK was doing a lot for his country but it never came on the surface. the achievements were buried with him. for instance, he wanted to return dollar printing and circulation back to the US Treasury from the private sector Federal Reserve Bank. that project died with him.
Internal policies of de-regulation and pro-capitalism gave us a wonderful boom-time of freedom and abundance. And I’ll bet he’s the last POTUS to carry a side-arm while serving as POTUS.
the USSR wasn’t any threat to me, or in the final analysis, to america. reagan hated the soviet union because they were anti religion.
Yea, he has the record for most screwing in the house! “Don’t ask” were not his words but the speech writers.
He was an adultress. Treated his wife terrible!
So was Clinton! How is God’s name would she put up with all that? And what about her emails that have not been released yet? She goes along with whatever Obama says, he must be backing her and helping her. She lies all the time. Vote for TRUMP all the way!
Franklin Roosevelt brought us through the worst attack ever seen,,on Pearl Harbor ( at least in my
lifetime ) and responded with the necessary force to destroy the enemy,,and the atomic bomb
from the next administration showed the enemy that America is not to be messed with,,,to bad
the current adninistration doesn’t have the gits to do the same thing
There is some debate that FDR may have gotten us involved in WW2 and imo at any rate, did not save us from the depression. His policies sent us down the road to big govt and probably elongated the depression. So, not a fan. Besides, all the presidents before him humbly stepped down after serving 2 terms, following George Washington’s lead.FDR didn’t.
Sorry, Hitler, Tojo and Mussolini gave us no choice . We should be thankful that FDR was our leader. His genius saved America and the free world.
Reagan was a big supporter of FDR in the early 1940’s.
I was born at the beginning of Herbert Hoover’s presidency. It’s obvious Main Street and Alton weren’t around when FDR applied his sell-out of the American public. He managed to appoint all nine Justices, then tried to do away with the Court when they wouldn’t give him supreme authority. Churchmice thumbed their noses at us because we were financially worse off than they. During his first year, to save the Federal Reserve, he confiscated all privately owned gold. When the government had purchased it all at $20.67 an ounce, he raised the official price to $35. an ounce, technically stealing nearly 70% of its value from the unwilling public. His costly welfare programs, CCC, WPA, PWA, etc., didn’t sound like a lot when compared to today’s but when men worked for 25 cents a day, it was a significant amount. It began our unrelenting march to bankruptcy. FDR served until 1945 and I’m trying hard to think of something he ever did for us (and don’t say “Won WWII for the Allies” — he was a dupe of Stalin. Thank God for Churchill!). Limited space doesn’t permit my listing his many foibles. Best president my Aunt Margaret’s bloomers!
George Washington,hands downs! If it wasn’t for the excellent generalship and perseverance, there would be no United States not to mention, he prevented our government from becoming a monarchy from whence we came. He fought against odds unconceivable by todays standards, when the only ones that believed in him was his own men.George Washingtons legacy of leadership is still the highest standard ever set by General/president, Lincoln is a close second!
what about ALL of the other hell he caused? my grand parents lived through the deperssion of his time and hate him for what he did.
Washington first place by miles. Wilson was the worst, giving us Federal reserve, and IRS. FDR give us
more socialism than any other except Obama.
And Bush got us through 9/11, but lots of people hate him for it. So a guy happens to be POTUS when the US gets into a major scrap and manages to ride though it without completely sinking the country. Is it leadership, or the robustness of our government to be able to survive a bad leader? FDR also cooked up the Federal Alphabet soup that shifted power away from the elected legislature to an unelected bureaucracy. And why did we have to change the Constitution to prevent any future President from taking more than two terms?
When FDR took over we has 30% unemployment. Starving people. We had the 20th largest Army in the world. Germany and Japan had the most advanced militaries ever known. FDR put people to work. Not welfare, work. He built up our military and made Americans proud. We’d be enslaved if it was nott for FDR’s genius.
Lincoln was the best POTUS. He saved the UNION & freed a race. No other POTUS has accomplished so much, & no other POTUS has changed the nation so much. I believe no other person could have achieved these two changes
without destroying the nation.
Lincoln freed the Slaves. Oh yah and then what. They declared the Southern money was Confederate and was worthless so they could not pay the slaves even if they wanted to. The Slaves had been shown the road and told go your free now, fend for yourself . No shelter, no food and no money. Not one thought to how these people would survive without any type of assistance . The North did not welcome the competition and had a whole different view of color.
Incorrect, the depression came to an end because the people were all put to work building weapons for the soldiers and the Russians.
But FDR started us down the road to communism via socialism.
@ David: WPA made folks work. It was NOT welfare. A big difference from today. FDR, Truman and even JFK would be ashamed of today’s Democratic Party. If FDR didn’t become president, would have our republic survived? He and Lincoln saved our nation.
Actually WWII ended the Depression! None of FDR’s programs really changed except it did give people
the challenge of working for 35 or 40 cent a day! The one great thing he did was Social Security and
then LBJ enhanced it with Medicare and Medicaid. Of Course Obama and Pelozi helped ruin those with
Affordable Health Care whick isn’t affordable and not really much health care!
Franklin Roosevelt faced December 7, 1941 with determination to win the war on the two fronts. As a nine year old boy with hero,s like Patton, MacArthur and Nimitz, we knew who the enemy was and wasted no time in taking care of Nazi Germany, Italy and the Empire of Japan. Military secrecy was necessary and we did not announce our intentions but “kept the lid on” regarding troop movements and decided to go all out to win.. After winning in Europe we concentrated on the Pacific theatre of operations. After the sudden death of President Roosevelt we were fortunate to have his vice Present succeed him and mkew the important decision to drop the Atomic bomb on two occasions and tp bring the Japanese to their knees ans surrender. War was ended on two fronts in loess than four years.Vice President Truman succeeded Roosevelt and made the d3ecision to use the Atom Bomb
Not long after we entered into the Korean conflict and are still there. Hundreds of thousand of people died with just One Atom Bomb and we dropped two of them. We were going to pull out of Europe and fight in the Pacific, which is what we should of done. The French ran and the English still thought they had been our superiors . The Atom Bomb was only to be used as a last resort . Now everyone is got one and we could blow up this planet a hundred times.
You may not know this about FDR, buy in EVERY instance, before he made his decisions public, he asked Eleanor, his wife, what she would do! Her decisions accounted for 97% of his public statement decisions!!! So, I always said, “Eleanor was our greatest President!” My mother was her best friend.
@Harlen Jones: Yes, Eleanor Roosevelt was a wonderful woman. She went out to see Americans and made suggestions on how they could be helped. It was a time when Americans could feel that their government cared.
Franklin did have quite a struggle, BUT HIS WIFE WAS AWFUL! She was a COMMUNIST! The social programs she pushed started the decline of AMERICA!
Eleanor was also Franklins first Cousin. Pretty sad if you ask me. Teddy Roosevelt stated, ” Keep it in the family”. I think they both shared the Secretary .
President Andrew Jackson solved problems. When the West was under constant attack by the Indians he did what they called, ” The Trail of Tears”, When we had been outnumbered 50 to 1 with the British he(Andrew Jackson) found these Cannon Balls from this Ship Captain that would explode and take out 50 British Soldiers at a time. When the last Six Presidents spent our Country in so much debt, Andrew Jackson decided to stop the paper money and go to Gold. Remember the paper money was printed by Benjamin Franklin at his Print shop and that is why it is called, “The Franklin Mint”.
there was only one president who turned down the CROWN of our country. froze his tail off, went hungry with his troops(which means he lead his troops on the field) & was offered 2 be crowned king. yes some were great but they pale in comparison 2 the man who could have been GEORGE the 1st !!!
Worst is Obama
Equal to Obama was Hubert Hoover . Remember out Soldiers that bought these War Bonds during WWI and when they had matured during the Depression and wanted to cash them in and had been told they could not. They marched on the White House and Hubert Hoover put the National Guard out to stop them. While the Americans had been suffering, Hubert Humphrey made Home Movies of him and his Grand children swimming in the White House Swimming Pool. The Hoover Dam cost hundreds of lives and a lot of people will call it the ” Colorado Dam”.
I misspelt Hoover and put Humphrey by accident. Sorry.
Agree and if Hilary make it she will also be one of the worst. TRUMP all the way!
Obama,
Not a President at all. He came to destroy America & with a gutless congress
he has triumphed. God help us & save the Children.
Without the Truth there is no progress !!

Yes, Ronald Reagan was a great president, but without George Washington and his solid principles this nation would have never had the start and therefore, the heritage to become the great nation it once was. It is a sad state when the country he envisioned has been lost to our children and grandchildren to come.
George Washington was not Saint. First Mount Vernon was named after the British Admiral/ Admiral Vernon. The House belonged to George’s Half Brother Lawrence Washington. George Washington made most of his Rank from the British due to his half-brothers influence . He was given the Rank of a Major and was nothing more then a Messenger . He later was able to ride with a group of British Soldiers under this LTC( Lt. Colonial ) Well their Leader was shot and George Washington had led them into the Forest to be safe. I guess you could call it a Blood Stripe. You know George Washington could not write a sentence without misspelling a word. He was perhaps the worse person to become the President .
I cannot believe anybody would think that Barack Obama is the greatest president. I think he is the worst president since the earth cooled.
This poll shows that 2.6% of those responding have the mental capacity of my big toe…
Randyeyeman: Why would you make such a comment? Everyone has their own opinion.
so…………..where the rest of your brain….are you sitting on it?
Totally Agree
Ronald Regan saved our whole nation from the Russians. Lincoln saved just half a nation and slavery would have ended a long time ago whether he was president or not. He didn’t keep the nation together, a war was won to squelch the other half, Regan didn’t have to go to war.
I have a total tie in my mind: Teddy Roosevelt, Thomas Jefferson. or Ronald Reagan…….
I RESPECT YOU FOR YOUR ACUMEN — YOU AR E RIGHT ON ALL COUNTS
I’ll take those.
How in the hell did Obama get 1.39%???? IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
John Adams was the most influential person in completing the organization of the colonists to fight the British —then he worked with General —Washington to build the peoples confidence in the type of Government that would create a new and different type of Government.—moving forward –almost every president worked to carry that idea forward until President Ronald Reagan arrived on the scene with his belief in a nation BY business, of business and for business and today we have come to that day where we have a congress, a senate, and MOSTLY A Supreme Court who all follow this idea of a Government for Business, by Business and of Business
WHO IN THERE RIGHT MIND WOULD VOTE FOR OBAMA….MUST BE INSANE!!
We must never forget Truman who bombed Hiroshima and stopped Japan’s movement to destroy our country…
good god who voted for Obummer
single word –“AMEN”
THE WORST POLL I HAVE EVER SEEN , the people who took this poll are fucking idiots !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who did you vote for, Fred?
Your use of profanity marks you as one who enjoys that language in our song lyrics, our movies and theatre which we have seen grow rapidly since the early 60’s. People who use profanity do so to mask a poor vocabulary. You sir, are the idiot.
Fred: By far,out of order! This is an indication, that the Public is in such variety, that they can’t elect a President!
I bet you voted for OBAMA.
michelle obama
Someone who listens to ABC, CBS, or NBC—-or Totally BRAIN DEAD!!!
Donald Duck, Micky Mouse , My dead Grandma and Grandpa ,and half of all the dead population
Anyone who would vote for First Fraud Obama should be invited to leave the country permanently and experience Communism first hand. Worst “president” ever.
Honestly, just how is any vote for obama or for that matter Jimmy Carter justified? Obama has made a mess of this country. Jimmy Carter proved that he was not very intelligent.
Franklin D. Roosevelt best president ever!!!
All most all of the presidents had a major problem while in office. With the help of God they resolved them. In hind sight some of the problems could have been handled better. I don’t think they try to make the mistakes they do make. I think they fall short when they depend on the wrong people for advice or let their egos take over. I can’t judge because I don’t think I could do much better.
As far as pressure and a must get it right scenario, FDR and Lincoln should be the best.
They both caused major wars and loss of American lives.
You must like dictators! Both of these disregarded the Constitution and persecuted the U.S. citizens. And Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation did not free the slaves. All it did was threaten to free the slaves in the South if they continued to secede from the federation. There were states that had not seceded that were slave states and were not affected by the Emancipation Proclamation. Also, if the Southern states had returned to the federation, slavery would have continued.
When Lincoln is still at the top, then that confirms that the voting public is still in the “dark ages”. Lincoln was a Tyrannical Despot who would not obey or permit the Constitutional Clause of Secession.
#1 Abraham Lincoln – without his resolve to preserve the Union and determined leadership during the difficult days and divided times of succession and Civil War, there would be no United States of America! The North American continent would mirror Europe, a multiplicity of divided independent nations. Furthermore the Nation’s economic development would not have progressed as rapidly into the Industrial Age, as long as slavery continued to exist! The evil institution had to be eradicated and the Union preserved “with malice toward none”. One wonders how much better the Reconstruction era would have gone had he lived out the 2nd and possibly a 3rd term. Additional domestic policy achievements go unmentioned because of his chief contribution to the Nation.
#2 George Washington, his contributions to a new Republic, defying and defeating the World’s superpower at the time speak volumes. His unifying leadership provided the foundation and direction for perhaps the greatest idea for a Nation in modern history! He insisted on state sovereignty and the separation of powers, but refused to meddle in the forging of the Constitution. One could even make the case that his most significant achievements occurred as a military leader before he became President in which to make possible the new Republic that was yet to be formed. The Union preserved by Lincoln through blood, was only possible because of General Washington’s indomitable leadership skill and ability to unite, train and inspire a ragtag bunch of colonists into a victorious, fighting force!
#3 Franklin D. Roosevelt provided direction and leadership for a Nation on the brink, during and eventually out of the Great Depression with the New Deal and manufacturing in the initial stages of WWII with Lend Lease. But, since FDR was going out of his way to involve the US in the war, why didn’t he began preparing our Armed forces in 1940? We could have averted ALOT of bloody and embarrassing defeats in 1942-43 at the hands of Germany and Japan. His declaration of war speech before Congress after Dec. 7th, 1941, “a day which will live in infamy” STILL gives one goosebumps! To think he was suffering paralysis and absolutely refused to give that address sitting in a wheelchair, speaks of the measure of the man willing to tackle the moment! But it must be recognized, behind every good man is a good woman. I’m speaking of Eleanor, his wife and coregent.
#4 Thomas Jefferson produced the document, which defines the US as a nation to this day! With prudence and foresight he provided the balance between the separation of powers, separation of church and state and the sovereignty of each state to govern itself under the Constitution. Along with the Louisiana Purchase and other domestic contributions to the newfound Republic, Jefferson ensured the stability as well as the expansion of the new Nation from coast to coast.
#5 Ronald Reagan inherited the massive problems of inflation, high unemployment, economic recession and a demoralized military after Vietnam with obsolete weaponry. Unlike Obama and others he made no apologies nor excuses, but stepped up to the challenges which faced the Nation, giving the American people renewed vision, purpose and resolve and the supreme leadership to propel it through economic uncertainty! The disingenuous continue to slander Reaganomics, even though its success remains undeniable and the blueprint to date for economic growth and recovery. His firm leadership extended beyond US borders and promoted Global peace and stability through a strong foreign policy backed up by a reinvigorated and powerful military that was second to none. The Gov’t spending under Defense insured the collapse of the Soviet Union, won the Cold War and freed eastern Europe. Even the Nation’s economic success under President Clinton was due to the adoption of Reagan era fiscal, tax, income and monetary policies.
#6 John F. Kennedy positively impacted the Nation for lasting change during the Civil Rights Movement and his resolve in leadership provided for the legislature under President Johnson after his death. His cool headed, yet FIRM, rock solid response and subsequent action during the Cuban Missile crisis, ordering the blockade and demanding that the weapons be removed is legendary and averted nuclear disaster. He had the vision in the early 60’s to continue to invest in Space exploration, paving the way for future programs in orbit such as the Shuttle, satellite technology, space stations and all of what we enjoy today as a result of those endeavors. One wonders if Vietnam would have become the foreign policy disaster that it was under President Johnson, if Kennedy were alive to win a second term.
Honorable mention – 7. Theodore Roosevelt 8. Dwight D. Eisenhower 9. John Adams 10. James Madison 11. Harry S. Truman 12. William Clinton 13. George H. W. Bush, Sr.
George Washington – He pulled our people together to create this nation and created something (Presidential role) out of nothing.
Every president has had many ambitions, but all had the well being of the country, the adherence to the rule of law and Constitution as their primary goal . . . until this present president. His ambition appears to be to undo all that those in office have done before him. Also there is no apparent mature conscious functioning, to direct how the demise would be done.
Truman acted instead of talked. Yes, innocent Japanese people are possibly still dying from the bombings….but it was the result of what their leaders got them into.
FDR caused the Japs to attack Pearl Harbor, he cut off their oil.
Them or us! Happy we are talking English and not Japanize’ I joined the USNAVY under FDR he thought us human life “ours” As far as I’m concern FDR was a great man. When he died I thought we would also I thought it was the end of the US of America I was in the South Pacific looking for Japs so your family could have food on the table and to be FREE. Happy to be of service. God bless America. I would like to hear Obama say that.
JD LEE-Concur
I may not agree with what you all say but I defend your right to say it
HOW DID OBAMA’S NAME EVER GET ON ANY LIST, EXCEPT THE “WORST PRESIDENT IN THE USA HISTORY !
Theodore Roosevelt was a giant among our Presidents ! He built a secure navy, challenged all of the adverser-is, instead of appeasing them and letting them walk all over America by creating world mini wars that we had to try to make peace with, like our weak present President
He established national parks and saved land all over the United States to stop development , plus he was a trust buster- no monopolies- giant business did not restrain trae during his administration I could go on and on…
/FDR caused the depression to last longer with his policies only w w two got the USA out of the depression,
George Washington freed us from England and was part of the founding fathers
Obama’s name should not have been mention. I can’t think
of anything positive he has done for the American citizens.
I guess those same people that help get him elected, still
support him?
I can’t believe people actually consider President Obama to be America’s greatest president. He even came in ahead of Nixon and Carter (at least at the time I’m commenting) which is odd since President Obama has done more damage to the economy and made America weaker than Jimmy Carter did. President Obama’s contempt for the Constitution and flagrant disregard for the law makes Richard Nixon look like a saint. Nixon negotiated with our enemies; Obama has apologized and given in to our enemies.
THERE IS SUCH A DIFFERENCE IN NIXON’S KICKING IN A DOOR TO KNOW WHAT YOUR OTHER CANDIDATES ARE DOING, THAN LETTING THE RADICAL MUSLIMS BEHAED AND BURN CHRISTIANS AS WELL AS SUPPRESS ALL OTHER RELIGIONS AND TAKE OVER COUNTRIES BY BRUTE FORCE – IT CANNOT , IN ANYONE’S MIND, BE EVEN A SMALL COMPARISON
I agree Obama is the worst of all, by far. Remember 60% of Democrats really think he is a cost cutter.
Do they know he’s going to spend 10 Trillion in 8 years while the rest of all Presidents combine spent 10 trillion
What! Try doing a little reading. You sound like you listen to rush
Well,yes I agree that Obama is a bad, bad president but….why we the smart, intelligent voters elected him twice? We should take the blame.
Your Right Justin about Obama But when you are a Manchurian Candidate, your above the law which you can see he is stripping the Constitution purposely for The New World Order.
Not sure, but I think Obama might be the anti-Christ. Think about it, he just appears out of thin air. NOBODY knows anything about him except Satan and Jesus Christ!!!!!
WHO WOULD BE THE WORST PRESIDENT.I GUESS WE ALL READY KNOW THAT ANSWER
The president who set the precedent for all future was George Washington. No one in that time frame had ever seen and experienced a Democratic Republic Political government. So he had a lot of new capacities, and responsibilities, and limits never before in existence for the leader of a nation.
Ronald Reagan was one of the greatest President’s we’ve ever had. Plus a wonderful leader
He was a wonderful man.
If it wasn’t for Dwight D. Eisenhower this country wouldn’t exist today , he was one of the greatest Presidents that ever lived and ran this country. A lot you are really to young to even know who he was . Get your history books out and read about him and all the rest and you will see why he was the greatest .
Having been the general that lead our forces in Europe as they defeated the Nazis he had nothing to prove as president so ego did not enter into his actions. Same for HST. These men apparently believed in constitutional govt while in recent years the govt has focused on “civil rights” and it’s the economy stupid. The Constitution is the basis, the foundation of our govt. Not the bible. not the economy, not civil rights. In islam the koran is the basis of sharia law so ayatollahs, Islamic rabbis or bishops, are heads of state. In America the bible is the basis for appropriate human behavior, not for legislation or executive orders. The last person appointed to the SC by O is empathy oriented but she and all of them are supposed to be justice oriented. Govt is supposed to be a govt for the people and both conservatives and liberals can be American. Getting elected or appointed to a govt office does not mean it is a license to steal, lie or give civil rights to special interest groups. Such as the right to kill unborn babies. BLM. Babies lives matter. Everyone of us, except A and E, were babies at one time. No more political hacks should be appointed to the SC.
Well said!
If you truly believe the Bible is the basis for appropriate human behavior, then you must be one of the people who voted for our legislators to abolish the Pledge of Allegiance in our schools and have the words In God We Trust taken off of our federal court houses!
For your info, the Koran means Bible in the English language and it is a duplicate…word for word of the old testament. And furthermore Hosni Mubarak, the last President of Egypt (an Islamic nation) was neither an ayatollah, rabbi or bishop.
I suggest you study your comments before you make them, otherwise you’ll be just like all our politicians.
Good General, bad President.
Gen. Dwight did not win WW2. Millions of boots in the air, sea, and ground did it.
Agree
He did give us the Interstate Hwy. system. That’s all I can remember him by.
Lincoln? Look at what he did not what historians say about him.
What did he not want to them to say
Lincoln was the country’s first imperial president, and like most 20th century president, he ignored the Constitution when it did not support what he wanted to do. Most of the issues people have with Obama or Bush before him can be traced back to Lincoln.
CORRECT; A REAL “DESPOT” KILLING MORE THAN 600,000 AMERICANS.
actually the top 9 are probably correct, maybe not exactly in that order but pretty good there.
this is a tough question to answer as I have several in mind. Ronald Reagan, I think is my favorite, Abraham Lincoln also gets my vote and Franklin Delano Roosevelt did good for our country. Bring them back; much better then what we have now. It is so sad for our America. When you let abortion be sight, same sex marriage be the law of the land and criminal activity be right by those who are considered allowed to be untouchable and right is wrong and wrong is right what has happened to our country? God help us!!! It makes me so sad and depressed and my prayer is: Lord come quickly…..Our America is totally destroyed .
Read up on George Washington, folks. He was not only the first; he was the greatest, no contest.
The big three for me:
Washington – could’ve been King, but renounced that in favor of a Republic.
Jefferson – advocated for individual liberty and opposed a powerful centralized government.
Reagan – won the Cold War, turned the economy around by cutting taxes, and reminded us all that freedom is our birthright.
BO is a total joke. Whomever voted for him deserves him. Not me. JFK all the way.
George Washington without question. His achievements under the most dangerous and difficult circumstances culminating in the first presidency after 8 years of brutal warfare under his personal leadership are nothing short of superhuman. Americans
are largely ignorant of the enormous debt we owe him.
I made a mistake. I thought the question was for who is our worst prez. And BO won that hands down. He is untouchable in his failure to do something for America instead of to America. No muslim is in America to become an American. They are all here to make us all become muslim. Being a muslim is both their nationality and religion,
Have you actually read the minds of all of the Muslims in the United States? Making blanket statements is the antithesis to clear thinking and shows limited intelligence.
BO, Franklin Roosevelt and Lincoln are our three worst Presidents…all three violated the Constitution frequently by ignoring it totally.
Spoken Like A True Fox News Follower
There are plenty of Muslims who were born in the US and have served in our military and are good and loyal Americans. So your comment is just ignorant but also revealing as to your hatred of our president. As to the poll, I can’t figure Reagan’s lead over Lincoln, Washington, Jefferson and FDR. Reagan was lucky not to be impeached over his deal with Iran in order to support the brutal Contra fighters. But then, Reagan loved dictators as long as they did our bidding. Note his memos to staff on the need to keep Saddam in power.
I did not vote for Reagan but I n recent history he is the best one
William Henry Harrison gets my vote. He was not in office long enough to do any damage.
I can understand your reasoning…very original. (:-)
Unfortunately Hussein o has had 8 years to destroy and DIVIDE America—Lincoln was America’s Great Emancipator and UNITER–Hussein will go down as the WORST and the “GREAT DIVIDER” !
Reagan was an outstanding President and I would certainly rank him #2. However, Truman ended World War II and saved many lives including Japanese lives by bombing Japan (atomic bombs). So he is #1.
Washington was not only brave in that he fought on the battlefield and not from afar, but was an honest and humble man insomuch that when he was encouraged to run a second term and even become king, he refused. What modern day presidents would do or have done the exact opposite?
Lincoln and Reagan are at the top of my list. They both had tremendous courage and commitment to the people.
LINCOLN WAS A “DESPOT” KILLING MORE THAN 600,000 AMERICANS.
I have always considered Coolidge to be one of our best Presidents. He did nothing to piss off anyone. Both political parties liked him and got along well with him, he continued to keep the American economy going without a setback, and did nothing to endanger the country. Although most may actually know almost nothing about him, that mark shows that he never made waves throughout the country. He served his Presidency and the country without ever drawing special attention to himself, even getting himself re-elected on his merits instead of special interest groups. In short, he did his job, did it well, and then walked away from it when his time was up, all without demanding any special attention to him or his family. He was also the only President sworn into office by his father.
You failed to list Americas best President of all time – President Jefferson Finis Davis.
JFK was for the people and not for a NWO that’s why he was murdered…MR. Ragan fired his Surgeon General because he wanted to remove Aspartame from our market….we are the only country still using this most dangerous drug, along with Fluoride poison pollution in our cities water systems… etc. etc.. population control over 60 million unborn murdered…since Roe VS Wade..
the American sheeple will not get away with this much longer, Jesus/God wrath is building up and soon His anger will be poured out on this Anti-Jesus/God world…..Hebrews 9:27
IT IS A FACT, NO ONE CAN EVER SATISFY ALL. HOWEVER, DECISIONS HAVE TO BE MADE IN ALL WALKS OF LIFE, FOR YOUR SELF, YOUR CHILDREN OR AS A BUSINESS MAN. RONALD REAGAN DID BRING RESPECT BACK TO THIS COUNTRY.
FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH, I STRONGLY FEEL THAT REAGAN WAS A TRUE AMERICAN AND HE LOVED THIS COUNTRY.
HOT DOGS, APPLE PIE WAS NEVER FORGOTTEN WHILE HE WAS PRESIDENT.
Another great man was Calvin Coolidge, he had to deal with a much deeper depression than Roosevelt or Obama had and it was not only over in like 18 months but out of it came incredible national and personal economic growth resulting in the roaring 20’s.
During MY lifetime, Ronald Reagan was – and still is – the BEST!
[At the moment, we are experiencing the WORST. Mr. Reagan would be spinning in his grave.]
If you lived in Michigan or Ohio during President Reagan’s second term you would never think he was a good president.
35 % unemployment in Michigan. 22% unemployment in Ohio.
Because of his continuing efforts from Nixon to let China have free trade in this country we now MUST buy the junk China products.
Where are American made products?
Many had worthy accomplishments:
Reagan defeated Communism;
Ike integrated the schools;
Harry dropped the bomb and ended a war that could have caused several more millions to die if Japan had to
be invaded;
FDR initiated public work projects that still work today;
Johnson allowed Seward to purchase Alaska;
Lincoln kept the union together;
Jefferson purchased the Louisiana Territory;
But only 1 turned down the opportunity to be King. GEORGE WASHINGTON without whom these other accomplishments may not have been rendered by these men.
IF RONALD REAGAN “defeated Communism” then WHY do we have so many Communists within the USA?!!!
(not to even mention CPUSA, whose membership is stronger than ever…OR….Commies within our White House, Congress & U.S. Dept. of Justice, known as ‘Progressive Democrats’!)
That’s because of the decline of leadership after Reagan left office, and especially the lack of it for the past 8 years with Obummer at the helm!
Glenn Davis…I agree. Our first president, George Washington, was the greatest. If Old George had not set it up, we would have had a King just like England. And eventually right back from where we started from. George Washington was a rare old bird who looked down the road to consider the consequences of every thing he did. Next would be Jefferson (Louisiana Territory), James Monroe (War of 1812), Ronald Reagan, and Abraham Lincoln.
There is an old adage that fits this coming election & every one before it…….No King (Politician) is so great as when he convinces the people that he is fighting for them, when in reality they are giving up there lives to save his throne!!!
Glen Davis. You left out Obama. He is in the same class as Nixon, no body voted for him.
I’m surprised someone voted for Barack I’m sure it was either himself over that fat a$$ heshe he’s married too
OR–OPRAH!!!
I thought George Washington was, Because he said No man should be King here in USA
ABE LINCOLN THE VERY WORST, HE PERPATRATED A WAR IN THIS COUNTRY, BROTHER AGAINST BROTHER DIVIDING THE COUNTRY MORE AN MORE, AND SECOND PLACE BELONGS TO OBUMBA HE IS STILL DOING THE SAME.
Andrew Jackson refused to allow them to set up central banking amid intense pressure. His headstone says :”I killed the bankers.” Gotta respect that.
Everyone has their own opinion. But the father of our country was our first president, not Ronald Reagan.
I think Washington has to be near the top because he had nothing to guide him as he was the first. He actually had a big hand in forming this country and it’s values. Lincoln and FDR and DDE dealt with wars that could have destroyed this country which has to put them near the top. Reagan dealt with the Soviets and helped this country prosper. I think John Kennedy would have been a great president if he would have lived long enough. I think it is impossible to pick a single president who was the greatest but one thing is for sure –IT IS VERY EASY TO PICK WHO IS THE WORST PRESIDENT IN OUR HISTORY — obozo the muslim fraud.
Hahaha! So true, Soooo true!
AMEN!!!
Now that’s the most intelligent post I’ve seen here, especially the last four words —
You had a great letter, well thought out until your last sentence. Maybe President Obama is no Washington or Lincoln but he has done nothing to deserve such hatred as we see in so many posts. Not that it matters, but he is a Christian not a Muslim. And that is a great deal more than can be said for those who write so many of the posted comments.
Why would anyone Ronald Regan was our best President. He was the one that started breaking the Unions in America. Just ask the traffic controllers union all those people lost their jobs when they went on strike. What happen to their right to get better benefits and more money for the job they did.
Someone voted for obozo and clinton —WOW — Easy to see why this country is in the shape it is. Absolutely unbelievable.
TRUE!! SAD-but these are the same AIRHEADS that voted for them??!
I wonder where you get your info from, just guessing the fair and balanced Fox.
THIS POLL is PROOF that the ‘majority’ of people KNOW NOTHING of our earlier U.S. Presidents!
True!! Airheads have little background or Education in American History!! Sorry state of affairs!
well, some of you people are delirious, Reagan was far the worst president just look at what he did to Flint Michigan. he was for the Rich, put stress on the Unions.I need not say no more look at the wal-mart worker!!!! the Rich got what they wanted
The very best president ever was John F. Kennedy who stopped the missile crises in Cuba and stopped a nuclear war.
I Agree
And you do Emircitna?. Are you the Poll specialist????????????????????????????????????????????
Since I could only vote once, I chose George W. Bush because he kept us safe after 9/11. My next choices would be Reagan and F.D.R. My very first vote was for Dwight Eisenhower. The only president I have been ashamed of is Obama. And, I pray everyday that Hilliary Clinton never, ever occupies our Whitehouse!
The next President, Donald Trump for bailing us out of the ugly communistic mess purveyed by muslin Obama.
AMEN–Hussein Soetoro/Dunham/Obama (or Whoever He REALLY is??) is the the ABSOLUTE WORST and the Muslim supporter still has over 10 months to screw America up worst with his Dictatorial “Executive Dictates”
PERFECT
Trump is another Obama and just as arrogant.
Obama has to be the worst president this country has ever seen. He should have never been elected in the first place. If a black had to be elected it should have been Colin Powell. Obama is just a big joke. And has damaged this country beyond repair.
You got to be kidding. Reagan was one of our worse presidents…Sure he talked like a conservative (via teleprompter) but governed like a liberal..Consider (1.) he tripled the national debt (2.) he turned a trade surplus nation into a trade deficit nation (3.) his amnesty drew another 30,000,000 illegal aliens into our country, causing most of our national problems today (4.) his Free Trade policy cost us tens of millions Middle Class factory jobs over the years and made tens of millions Americans unemployed and on welfare (5.) he armed our enemies and make it possible for the Jidahists to drive us out of Beirut and enabled them to fight other wars with us later And (6.) he was involved in many scandals and almost impeached for the Iran-Contra scandal.
You do realize that when Reagan signed legislation to allow illegal s a path to citizenship it had several conditions. Including that the Democrats were going to help secure our southern border to cut off the flow of illegals into the country. Unfortunately the Dems were liars and tried to make the boarder even more open.
President Nixon was best since Ike. He gave us detente and SALT w Russia, opened China to the West, made friends w former nuclear enemies. Ended wars. Peace in VietNam until he was deposed by Dems and horrendous liberal press. Appointed law and order judges, stopped race riots, improved economy, lowered inflation to 3.2% while rest of the world was double-to-triple digit inflation. Like JFK he invested heavily and enthusiastically in NASA resulting in the integrated circuit and the advent of the personal computer. He funded research which led to the Internet created in LA (sorry Al Gore, not TN). Bombed Hanoi to the peace table. Kissinger would Nobel for the brief peace. He stayed out of the ME and let Russia blow a fortune in the Suez. He strengthened our bases in the Med and Turkey. He meddled in Eastern Europe adroitly not raising Soviet ire. He and the pope pushed for reforms that led to freedom behind the Iron Curtain starting with Poland. Unlike liberal economists may say, US had been effectively off the gold standard since FDR’s first term. His price controls temporarily eased pressure on the middle class. He fought to keep US companies employing US citizens but markets free overseas. Like RFK he used wire-tapping and instituted No-Knock to reduce crime and fight organized crime. He regained control of the streets in major cities. He completed the vast Interstate highway network planned under Ike.
Why don’t you let us vote for who the worst president is/was? In fact, I would like to rate them ALL, from best to worst. Not that would be enlightening.
We have to be cocerned about many things in this country. We have had great leaders and then we got obummer, but we also have to watch for other things that are going on like, our freedom of religion being taken away. There will come a time in the very near future when there will be a Sunday law passed, stateing that everyone has to worship on Sunday and can no longer worship on the Sabbath day that God created for us. Read Revelation in the Bible and pray for understanding that you will see what I am saying is true. We also have to watch out for the Jesuits, they will try to control everything eventually. There are bad things happening all over the planet right now, but it is nothing compared to what the Jesuots want to do.
I voted for Jefferson because he put the Barbary Pirates (Muslims) in their place for 200 years. BUT, I think we should have been able to vote for the top three. I would have voted Jefferson, then Reagan, then Washington.

No Brainer to anyone who has taken U.S. History 101!! (Tie Between George Washington & Abraham Lincoln) 1).George Washingtonfought the American Revolution against the British Monarchy, helped write the Documents that established our new Nation, then as First President led the new Nation through the critical initial years establishing many critical precedents before graciously handing over the to the elected second President with ALL DEBTS paid. Abraham Lincoln ties Washington for First Place. Our 16th President led our nation successfully through the largest test ever- American Civil War–In his famous Gettysburg Address Lincoln wisely noted -“Testing whether that Nation or any Nation so conceived (In Liberty) can long endure.” His wise, determined and honest actions through the most trying period in Our History literally SAVED OUR UNION. If it wasn’t for Lincoln little would be the same for all of us today. Like Lincoln said: “If I could SAVE the Union without freeing a slave I would do it. If I could Save the Union by freeing some and leaving others in bondage, I would do it, If I could Save the Union by freeing All Slaves, I would do that too—MY OBJECTIVE IN THIS CIVIL WAR IS TO SAVE THE UNION!” -Which he successfully accomplished, and set up the successful Plans for Reconstruction for the defeated South and “Our Fellow Americans”. Contrary to the Airhead and under-educated various Minorities, Liberals, Socialists, “Urban Cultures”, and History Revisionists—Abraham Lincoln’s GREAT and MOST IMPORTANT ACHIEVEMENT was SAVING THE AMERICAN UNION—the 13th Amendment later (which Lincoln supported after the UNION was Secure) Freed All Slaves. P.S. A Great “Darkhorse” President based on all his land aquisitions and achieveing ALL his major goals in only one Term—James K. Polk–Check out his very important accomplishments for America!
Bob V. Say yhe truth hurts, but very helpfull. A WISE MIND is never STILL!
All presidents were great in there own way, even Obama. You have to give him a grade of 100% when it comes to destruction of the US.
Can’t see any “greatness” in “Destruction??!” –You can’t be Serious-Hussein O is TERRIBLE !
Now who’s the worst? hussein the muzzlim terrorist!
Reagan may have been a good president, but was one lousy governor. he closed all the mental institutions in CA. now the mentally ill have become law enforcements problem, just like the homeless. So slap ol Ronnie on the back an tell him good job.
0 if you have a medical condition who you rather treat you dr. Ben Carson , who is the doctor or one of the other candidates who are nothing more than politicians , dr. Ben Carson is our best chance to turn this country around and headed back towards we the people for the people instead of by the government and screw the people.
Ben Carson is the best candidate for several reasons
1) He is used to making life and death decisions before he even has a chance to stand and do. In these dangerous times we need him.
2) He will act on common sense not polls.
3) He can deliver bad news without blaming the innocent person/people.
4) He is slow to speak so he can communicate better.
5) He has a calming demeener in the mist of caos.
7) He is a team player.

Washington, Lincoln, & Reagan exemplified the beliefs displayed in this web site: http://www.YourCyberGodSays.com.
Thankfully,historians rate great presidents judged on facts surrounding the times of their presidencies and not by the ‘polling’ on these sites. Ronnie Regan at twice that of George Washington?…Please!
Andrew Jackson refused to renew the charter of the second bank of the U.S., Run by international bankers, and for the only time in American history he balanced the national debt.
They attempted to take his life for this.
On his death bed he was asked what his greatest accomplishment in like and he replied ” I killed the bank”
He was self educated and threw a huge party at the White House when elected.
I’d like to see the tyrants today throw a huge party…
I voted for W. H. Harrison because he is my 1st cousin, 5 times removed and had the shortest term of any of them. My true vote gos to FDR
Good presidents, in different eras, may not have been as worthy, had it not been
for one or two factors. Lincoln, who is said to have saved the Union, may not
have been able to save us from the Great Depression.
FDR, at the same time, may have been useless, had he been president, during the
Civil War.
All I Can Say Is Wow, What A Group Of Scholars.
Obama shouldn’t even be on the list of good or great. He has taken this country to the cleaners and the people that voted for him are just as much to blame for what he has done to this country and they all should be lined up and shot. He is a coward and a liar and you all will see what he is after he leaves the office he will take it down with him, he is no good and has done no good for us ether and you all will see. Just keep watching him in what he dose because we will all suffer for what he has done and doing. All the Democrats are for Satan and not for God and that has been and is are down fall when they get into office, just watch he will go out and take this country down with him you will see and he don’t have a lot of time left and that is why we have to try and slow him down from doing so. Are best bet now is Trump and Carson to get the vote and they can and will put us back on track. Obama should be impeached and soon before he votes or places any one into the Supreme Court that is for sure and he should be putting Hillary in jail also but he wont because he is the coward that he is he is not even a man he is scum off the ground and low as you can get that is the truth.
I voted President Washington as “Our” Greatest President because he “United” our Country and “Honored” our Military Veterans more than any other Commander-In-Chief since he left office. However, as an SFC and brother of a USN Diver (Ordie) and son of a WWII and Korean War USMC Captain, I must agree with the comment made earlier by our fellow countryman, “Russ”, holding President Harry Truman in very high regard as indeed a great “Commander-In-Chief” who also “Honored” our Military Veterans and made the tough albeit dead right decision to “drop” A-bombs on what at that time was a “heartless savage Japanese empire” Truman knew had to be ended swiftly without an invasion that would waste American Military lives. Thanks President Truman and thanks “Russ” for your comment. P.S.: If we, “as One Nation Under God”, which right now is divided, do not pull our butts out of our backsides and come together under the wisdom and power that same God President George Washington prayed to near the shores of the Delaware River, New York and Valley Forge every single morning early, particularly on 08/29/1776, 12/25/1776 and 02/16/1778 at Valley Forge, whether we are red, yellow, black, or white, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, or Christian, “WE ALL” now live in a Nation founded by that very God Honoring “Christian” Commander-In-Chief who was appointed to office by a Continental Congress whose members were over 90% devout “Christians” WHO ALL wanted OUR NATION to provide “FREEDOM OF RELIGION” to its citizens whether they wanted to worship and bow down to “Jesus Christ” Or, if they preferred, to some other “deity”, but the Constitution they wrote did not say “Freedom From Religion” because without always understanding and honoring our Nation’s “Judeo Christian Truths” found in “God’s Holy Bible” which in 1776 was taught in every school in the American Colonies: Primary, Secondary, Colleges and Seminaries, all placing great emphasis on a populace well educated in the moral principals and precepts of a “free people” only found in the “Holy Bible”, YOU WOULDN’T HAVE THE FREEDOMS YOU HAVE TODAY TO CELEBRATE PRESIDENT’S DAY AND VOTE IN NOVEMBER. Over thousands of years many false doctrines have attempted but failed to provide “Freedom” to ALL of its members, always ending in chaos and defeat because, in the end, those doctrines were “evil” and not truly “Honorable” to ALL its members. When an American soldier, sailor, airman or marine is in a battle, we have a fighting edge because we know this and we know our leadership has our back (except current history, beginning in 1961, when our Nation’s “Holy Bible” was taken out-of-schools was no longer legally recognized and considered an essential “fabric” of an educated populace of “Free People” to govern themselves in the voting booth, RESULTED in OUR “less-than-honorable” society and government today having leadership allowing and lying about atrocities like the “true story” described in the recent movie titled, “13-Hours, Secret Soldiers of Benghazi”. My “Comment” has been long enough to relay my “President’s Day Message”. I pray this coming November 2016, All of American Veterans, Active Duty and Retired, regardless of race or party affiliation, will join with its civilian citizens whom we are sworn to protect along with our “Constitution”, and “Vote” for a Presidential “Candidate” who is a “Man of Honor” who first and foremost understands “The Person” our First President and Commander-In-Chief always humbly and carefully approached almost every single morning “Early” asking for His guidance, provision and protection before he did anything else that day. Our Vote is Important! Your Vote is Important! The “Candidate” and “Man-of-Honor” I am referring to is Dr. Ben Carson with his wife Candy Carson, who together would bring “Honor and Respect” back to our Nation’s Whitehouse, Nation and certainly to our “Military Service Men and Women” and would have the wisdom to let the “Pentagon” and their soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines win their daily battles and accomplish their missions knowing our nation’s leaders are men-of-honor who have their backs and are humbly approaching and praying to the same God they are each morning. So with that I end my comment, “Happy President’s Day” !
Was and always will be
We would not have a country today if we didn’t kick the British A__, in 1776. We have struggled all these year because of the British wars to keep the world upside down and not developing the World resources, similar of what Russia and China is doing, instead of Wars killing people.
Democrats have always been the oppressor when it comes to the black people and other minorities in this country. Democrats need a permanent under-class, that’s where their votes are and don’t forget, Democrats were the KKK. Now we have a Muslim, communist, and an American traitor in the white house and of course he’s a democrat. I voted for Reagan. I saw what he did. When Reagan took over the white house as our president, he brought the inflation rate of 21% down to 3% (give everyone an 18%) raise without raising taxes. Brought down the Berlin wall, The United States had the best economy it had for years, wages were up and this country was just having great prosperity. The United States of America was respected and feared, but not now!! Thanks to Obama and his democrat cronies.
Harry S. Truman He recognized Israel as a nation. God blessed us as nation. The us has turned it back on Israel. God will no longer bless America. Genesis 12:2,3 2And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing; 3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. Blessed or cursed time to choose!!!
JEFFERSON DAVIS/ CONFEDERATE STATES OF AMERICA/1861-1865.
What the heck did Regan do??
jimmy carter hS TO BE ONE OF THE BEST. HE WOULD NOT FIGHT NOR WOULD HE TELL HIS WIFE TO SHUT UP. IF WE GET A CUBAN FOR PRESIDENT THEY ARE HEN PECKED ALSO. bUSH HAS A MEXICAN TELLING HIM WHAT TO DO. TRUMP WILL NOT A WOMEN RUN OVER HIM LIKE THE LIBERAL MEGYN TRIDE TO DO.
VOTE TRUMP HE IS HIS OWN MAN AND LOVES AMERICA NOT LIKE SOME CUBAN THAT RAN AWAY FROM HIS ISLAND HOME WHEN THE GUNS STARTED FIRING.
I think the best President was probably George Washington. America was in her infancy as a free Republic and free from corrupt politician’s like we have now. The best President in my lifetime was Reagan. If Trump is elected he may come close to being one of the Republican greats. Worst President is probably Obama.
Surprised to see George W Bush coming in the middle as he should be the worst ever president in the history with so much damaged he generated around the globe.
FDR for the depression and WWII both of which threatened the continued existence of the USA.
Truman took the bull by the horns and approved dropping the Atomic Bomb on Japan which ended WWII right now.
Reagan may have been president when the Berlin wall fell, but Jimmy Carter’s campaign for Human Rights is what started it. Gay rights,Transgender etc all stem from Human Rights.
U got that rite. Trump/Carson 2016
Amen!!!

P.S. – And if the “Horn News” considers the “Aforesaid Comments” “Hate Speech”, you are indeed not only “wrong” in every sense of the meaning of that phrase, “Hate Speech”, but you are also keeping a U.S. Citizen and Veteran from exercising his right of “Free Speech” under the “First Amendment” — Let me guess, you are a Clinton or an Obama Political Supporter and do not wish to allow “healthy debate” unless it flatters your own political agenda….If so, you are placing yourself in the category of being a “deceiver” rather than what you stated below when you said “The Horn encourages healthy debate”. We also call that the same “word” we used to describe the “person” who testified under oath about what happened before during and after “The Battle of Benghazi”. That word was “Liar”. Is that what you are here sir or madam?
Why is there no – “None of the Above” option? As all belonged to some sort of secret societies and all are related by bloodlines.
Ronald Reagan, He stood up to the Russians,,,an took no BS
Ronald Reagan??? Really,the movie star who new the banks had already cut a deal with Russia to tear down the wall and them comes out and says tear down that wall and gets credit for making it happen.You people have to be kidding me.
Reagan, Washington, Lincoln, Eisenhower and Truman are by far the best. By far the worst are Obama, Carter, FDR, Johnson and Wilson.
I’m with Poncho and Elizabeth on the clown-in-chief, but Poncho should study Lincoln more. He was the fist and last extremely intelligent president, who knew that slavery was a vile abomination and he would certainly have somehow ended it, but his abrupt ” freeing of the slaves” was a final effort to save the union (“if you don’t end the succession by a certain time, then all slaves are freed”). And one who has read his Gettysburg address and debates must believe that had he lived he would have led the country to a much fairer and more prosperous reconciliation.
FDR was totally disliked by the troops and business owners / but stomping on the constitution to give hand outs bought a few votes.
Kennedy did not win the Popular vote and truly screwed the Cubans
Lincoln was of questionable mind (but had the toughest job w/o congress’ real support or trust)
and on and on–
Truman had the worst mess dropped on him (after all FDR stayed in office because no one else wanted to take over )
IKE whose terms are call “Uneventful” put the country to work on roads etc that started the greatest prosperity we have had.
George Washington. His determination and sacrifice meant we got away from Greater Britain and unfair taxes.
Why not put all this crap behind us and try to unravel the damage that Obama has done to this great nation. Vote for the person who will defend the constitution like Justice Scalia and Reagan. Stop voting for “Free Stuff” and vote for what is besr for the little ones who will suffer for our mistakes and greed.
Donald Trump is the only chance to make this country great.
Trump 2016
This is amazing, of the different picks, of who was the BEST, and a lot of who was the worst. I wish people of our country didn’t get so Hostile, over just Who was Who, and What !! The LOVE for our fellow man, or woman, no matter the way they think, is missing, and it is so sad to see what is said to each other over the past??? I have found that my mind gets changed, about every thing, the more I learn about a man, woman, when you learn the truth about him, or her!! We are missing so much of the real truth, if it were air, we would smother. I see Tyranny, running ramped in OUR country, and they want us to look at what they set up for us to watch, and we are not changing the things in our country, to be better, for the ones coming up behind us. There is more wrong in our country, then we even know!! I don’t know who was BEST, and who was the worst, but I do know if we don’t start pulling together, and not being torn apart, we are going to lose ALL. Forgive me if I spelled something wrong. Try one day, and not JUDGE one time.
There are many who should be considered ,BUT, it must be George Washington because without him ther would not be any other Presidents
If you consider the whole life of the president and his service to our country I would say,George Washington, Dwight D. Eisenhower,
Thomas Jefferson, Ronald Reagan, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Maybe JFK: all of them were presidents with means when leaving office. And then there is the president with a lot less Harry S. Truman (poorest) the little man who said the “buck stops here” and who paid for the wife secretary, out of his salary. Remembering that Harry & Bess for two years lived while the white house was gutted and rebuilt for the next president.
I do believe there are a few candidate that for the presidential qualities of these fine presidents that can build America back to our past Greatness. I would say Donald Trump can do it (he is not in it for the money) but in it to “Make America Great Again”. I would encourage Donald to take the Doctor along as a down to earth sounding board. Be may be slow with the words, but he is calm & steed in common sense.
I think a TRUMP/CARSON ticket will beat who ever the Demarcates put up for President.
This country has always been under powerful influence to control it. Bankers schemes along with cabals and secret societies,
Of European influence. I believe WW2 could not have been possible without establishing the FED replacing lawful currency with
European fiat money system. Saying a president was genius because he won the war. FDR may have been a mule for insiders. The US avoided treaties. Europe who had money peopl here realized the US with its resources was the next big extravaganza of wealth needed to tap into, to create treaties , to continue exploiting our wealth. It gave birth to the UN.since we had The CFR TRilADs and a number of Europe based groups loyal to Europe. Now they have infiltrated and are making policy it is the mindless policy’s that have furthur corrupted their gov.. Lincoln was another mule. Europe was afraid the country would susceed splitting the country not good for long term plans to control The US. Nor were they happy their imported slavery not ours was so efficient in the south was kicking butt , out producing the north economically. The minipulators could not have this so civil war was their solution to weaken us for banker control..our best presidents were George Washington For giving us an inspired nation GOD given that gave us a nation we the people could build on. JFK who came from a Cabal family who inspired great vision, saved us from a nucular war and challenged the minipulators over money printing without interest. Donald Trump that one man stands alone with many people as myself believe the god uses people he is given a single oppertunity to redeem our country from the other mule Obama.
I am a business man, I started in the Restaurant business when I was 14, I am 68 years of age now. Since I started in business in 1970 this country has gone to hell. Every year they make more laws where the owners of these business have less say than the employees that can’t even make their beds.No one should be elected to any Governmental office or for that matter at least worked in the private sector higherr and firer at least 50 employees, have to make a profit, pay rent, then expand your business but before you can do this you must bring your old building that you do not own up to code so your restrooms are as big as bowling alleys.This is what Capitalism, it’s run by Socialist and unions, and communist. Capitalism is dying,They sent our jobs, and know how to other countrys.. I never saw a poor person give anyone a job .The Government can’t give anyone anything unless they first take it from someone else.first (THIS IS STEALING). They just raised Minimum wage, That means everyone just got a raise because of the Unions, So now their cut off the top is just like the Governments, It’s just a raise to get more taxes and then the business must match it. Then we all raise our menu prices and buy equipment to get rid of as many employees as fast as possible… I was building a restaurant a while back every year for eleven years straight, they cost between $300,000 and $800,000. ea. to build. Do you know how many people we put to work like making carpets, tile for floors, Booths,tablel tops, lamps, equipment, exhaust system and all the trades that did plumbing, electrical etc. Well we stopped building because of Governmental regulations, they actually find me $100.00 for a burnt out light bulb in the rest room and the Inspector is the one who thru the switch when it burnt out, another thing is the eleven stores I built were all the same corp s, nothing changed but they still fingerprinted everyone in the corporation eleven times ea.for beer and wine license and all stores were in the same county of California. Try starting a business in California and it will Rejoice TRUMP a true business man. He knows what it’s like to deal with a country that is anti business. PS Carls Jr won’t build in California, it takes eight months for just the permit, in Texas the restaurant is open and making wages in less than eight months, whos for business Vote TRUMP
Washington voluntarily stepped down from power, assuring that our government truly did derive its power from “We, the people.” This was so unique in world history and makes our country special. Unfortunately today, many, including the current officeholder, do not seem to understand our country. He acts like the presidency is the equivalent of a king and that he can rule by overlook laws he doesn’t like and changing them when he wants.
All Presidents faced problems of their times. Many handled them well, while some, did not. Most importantly, however, was how the country fared, despite these problems, and how its’ citizens were able to carry on during each Presidents term and their lives were influenced by their President’s actions. Without a doubt, FDR was one president that dealt with many of the most complex decisions, involving WWII and a sagging economy. His creative solutions were influential in winning the war and keeping the country from financial ruin. Truman, who followed him, made the move to drop the A-Bomb and avoid having to fight the Japanese on their own ground. Which could have cost thousands of American lives. “Ike” was next in line, and he despite his military background, was the last president to balance the budget during both terms of his time in office. Showing economic savvy and effective use of taxpayer’s dollars. From then on Kennedy, Nixon, Ford, Johnson, Carter, and the Bushes all had their triumphs and defeats, but got us through the missile crisis, Viet Nam, 911, Iran, and a whole lot more. So to pick one, would be hard, or unfair. Our current President, who I rate as average, at best, will turn the country over to an executive leader who will have their hands full, cleaning up after some tough political times. Let us be fortunate to elect someone who can unite the parties, reestablish a powerful military, and again put the USA in a leadership role in our modern world.
G.W BUSH recently said , THE strongest man in the room is not the loudest. Well tell GENERAL PATTON,NO wonder we are where we are in history with no wins including poverty and drugs.
T Roosevelt was the greatest patriotic unselfish President in history ; heads and shoulders above GWB and why he’s one of the 4 on the rock in Dakota
Peter
The thing that atands out for me about Reagan, is when he tool over carters’ mess, they left hostages go because reagan doesn’t crap from trouble makers overseas. He even bombed kadafys’ house and killed a family member.We sure could use that right about now. This country is circling the drain because politicians are responsible.Popular should wake up and stop voting in these old time politicians who are only interested in filling their pockets
Eisenhower was an honest man who was the Supreme Allied Commander in WWII. He told us the truth that the Congressional Military Complex would starve us all to death to get rich. Those were not his exact words; but that was his meaning. Go to Wikipedia and look for Eisenhower’s Farewell Address to read what he said. He said they were hanging humanity on a cross of iron – referring to weaponry such as tanks, airplanes, trucks, guns, etc. He told us the truth. No other President did. He saw the millions of dead, young soldier’s bodies scattered all over Europe in WWII. This is a SAD, SAD WORLD. I REALIZED THAT IN MY 20’S AS I WATCHED MY BROTHER GRADUATE FROM TRAINING IN FORT POLK IN LOUISIANA TO GO TO VIET NAM AND HAD TO CHOKE BACK THE TEARS AS I REALIZED THAT MANY OF THE YOUNG MEN I WAS WATCHING PARADE AROUND FOR US WOULD NEVER RETURN HOME; BUT DIE IN A FOREIGN LAND AND I MOURNED THE FACT THAT FOR SOME REASON WE LIVE OFF THE BLOOD OF OUR YOUTH LIKE A WORLD OF VAMPIRES. SO SAD.
