Who is the most over-rated president of all-time?

[TheGreatGatsby]

FDR

He introduced more crap that we carry around to this day, that just doesn't work.
he confiscated peoples gold
couldn't get us out of the depression w/o war
got us involved in WW2
served 3 terms, breaking tradition, "for our own good".
Every American death in WW2 is on him.

Wilson and JFK

FDR ran for the 4th term even though he knew it was likely he would die during it. That's how much the man hungered for power and control.

He cut his former very liberal VP Harry Wallace from the ticket, in favor of the moderate, Harry Truman, a man who he detested.

There was a great chance that he would have lost the 1944 election without Truman. Truman had headed the Truman Committee that had cut $15 billion and saved thousands of lives for the war effort. He was seen as a man that countered FDR's waste and were it not for Truman being on the ticket, it was likely that FDR would have lost that election.

FDR was that worried about his legacy and retaining power and having his pulse on the affairs of the nation that he was willing sacrifice his real choice to be his successor in favor of a man he severely disliked and distrusted.

And it's still there FDR rated by 238 historians and presidential experts as America's greatest president.

PS, also elected four times by the America people.

(Save a poster the trouble)
Of course historians, scientists, college professors are all commie-socialists and don't eat their veggies.

Presidential experts? Now that's funny, must be an eight year degree.

Hell yea....noted presidential scholars can't hold a candle to Republican revisionist history

Oh and lets not forget;

FDR was the only Pres to put law abiding citizens in detainment camps.

yeah, he's the most vile man to ever disgrace the WH

He put innocent, loyal Americans in concentration camps. Some of the very best Americans of the day, as it turns out.

Public educators are all about revising history.

Overrated to me means, credit and adoration given versus actual accomplishments? Kennedy. Has to be. Truman second, and Eisenhower third.

Most historians think Eisenhower is underrated.

Most historians are right on that.But shouldnt they then rate him higher?

He is rated eighth. Hard to be rated higher in a period of relative peace. Following FDR and Truman is tough also

It's funny how we get the lib line: "It's 50 years before you can adequately judge a president" when we talk about Clinton or Obama, but they're all too willing to harshly judge Reagan. Typical lib bull shit.
