Best President In History Question

[CrusaderFrank]

JFK was a terrible POTUS, had he not been killed he would not have been remembered fondly.

Yeah that whole "scatter the CIA to the wind" thing, right?

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Hilarious

Where are the Hoover flags?

Hoover gave FDR all his worst economic ideas, you should WORSHIP Hoover

 

[blackhawk]

Kennedy was a lot like Obama - full of hope. In Obama's case it never developed. With Kennedy, we'll never really know.

True he was not a bad President but there is just not enough to fairly judge where he should be on a list of Presidents.

JFK was a terrible POTUS, had he not been killed he would not have been remembered fondly.

His approval was almost 60% when he was killed

Who?

Harrison gave a longwinded inaugural speech in a freezing downpour, caught pneumonia, and died a month later.

Best president ever.

LOL Obamacare seriously? The act he had to threaten and bribe his own Dems to vote yes on? The act that cost millions their doctor and health insurance that turd? The act that sucks so bad it's like not even having health insurance? The act that stole $500 billion from Medicare?

Still waiting on that replacement the GOP and Trump promised...

Truman evolved. He went on to integrate the military.

Hoover was the opposite of FDR. He believed the markets and banks should be allowed to fail. He believed in zero government intervention.

Hoover was also a businessman president like Trump. In fact, Trump is the first president since Hoover to lose the House, the Senate, and the White House.

Just wondering, is it possible to rank as one of the best presidents in history if you only served one term? Seems like if you can't get elected to two terms then it would be hard to make the best president in history list. FDR got elected to 4 terms. While that may never be possible again, it seems like that's a pretty damned good reason to be ranked as one of the best, if not the best. Anyway, off the top of my head, John F Kennedy is the only president in my memory who died in office and was never elected to a second term, who could legitimately be considered to be one of the best presidents in history.

Lincoln will always be number 1 with me.

I am no fan of FDR. FDR is the creator of the idea that for every problem there is a government solution. The federal government's powers were massively expanded by FDR, and things have only gotten a lot worse from there.

Out of our 46 presidents, Trump is number 50.

Best President because he didn't fuck anything up.

FDR brought in the idea of a modern government that can facilitate a higher living standard.

Take SS and its effect on elderly poverty.

LBJ accomplished more than JFK

If you call the Viet Nam debacle, war profiteering with Brown and Root, a couple of murders, and the attack and coverup of the USS Liberty accomplishments then you are correct.

 

[Dr.Know]

The simple answer to that question is Donald J. Trump. Easily one of the top three presidents in history. Possibly #1 if the election hadn't been stolen.

I strongly concur,,,,,Trump was always positive and boosting up any situation unlike the Village Idiot we have now.

LBJ accomplished more than JFK

LBJ also DESTROYED THE BLACK FAMILY with his Welfare designed to encourage mothers not getting married.
Actual Quote from LBJ " We will have those Nxggxrs voting for us for the next 200 years"
