Rank The U.S. Presidents of the last 98 years.

[Bush92]

Herbert Hoover was actually a great humanitarian and saved Belgium after WWI. Made a great Commerce Secretary. Massive public works project in the Hoover Dam

Would have been a good President if not for the ineptitude of Harding and Coolidge

Obama tried to spy on another campaign in 2016 to ensure his legacy of nothing more than being the first half-white President. Wanted to overturn a free and fair election so Billary cabal could get in.

 

[Bush92]

How would you rank the U.S. Presidents of the last 98 years, from best to worst.

01. Franklin Roosevelt
02. Harry S. Truman
03. George H.W. Bush
04. Ronald Reagan
05. George W. Bush
06. John F. Kennedy
07. Bill Clinton
08. Barack Obama
09. Richard Nixon
10. Lyndon Johnson
11. Jimmy Carter
12. Dwight D. Eisenhower
13. Gerald R. Ford
14. Donald Trump
15. Calvin Coolidge
16. Herbert Hoover
17. Warren G. Harding



Most difficult part for me was ranking Presidents #7 through #10.

JFK always overrated. Outside of Cuban Missile Crisis he did not have enough time to do anything.

LBJ lived out his legacy......including Vietnam

LBJ was a piece of shit. Goldwater should have won in 1964.

 

[Bush92]

Ford ranks high for me because he tried to stand by South Vietnam and our commitment to them when Democrats in the House were sticking a knife in their backs. Including the 58,000 Americans who bravely fell in battle.

Let me recommend a book for you, which provides a little better understanding of President Harding's reign in the early 1920's.

"The Illustrious Life and Work of Warren G. Harding" by Thomas H. Russell. Russell wrote his outstanding biography of the great man in 1923, the year of Harding's untimely death in the Palace Hotel in San Francisco.

It might give you more of an objective view of the man's greatness. Nowadays, Harding is very the much underrated

Harding was a zéro as President. Il prepared to be President and indifferent once he was elected
The inmates were running the asylum

He ended the post war recession, shit for brains

Yup
All postwar recessions end. Not a great accomplishment

But he did set us on a path of speculation and rampant deregulation that led to the Great Depression

Deregulation leads to depression? Where did you get that theory?

See Stock Market Crash of 1929
Massive, unsupported speculation created a boom in the 20s and a bust in the 30s

The Federal Reserve was responsible for the credit bubble. You can blame Wilson for that monstrosity.

President Harding did reduce income tax rates sharply from what Wilson had them at.

But he really couldn't get rid of income tax- booze was outlawed and the previous taxes on liquor were no longer producing revenue

Wilson raised marginal rates to 77%. this happened only a few years after adoption of the 16th Amendment, despite all the promises made by its supporters.

 

[regent]

FDR violated the civil rights of Japanese Americans, and tried to pack the USSC
Obammy assaulted the constitution with FBIgate, that makes him the worst by far
Carter and Bush were lame
Reagan was great
Trump is awesome
Kennedy was overrated, but today's Democrats would be calling him a Nazi.
Lincoln ended slavery so he is a great one

Reagan's greatness was based on his voting for FDR four times in a row.

 

[Mac1958]

The notion that George W Bush would be considered a good President, by any measure, is just breathtaking. The mess he left behind was historic.

The Democrats cause the great recession with their mortgage policies and then blamed it on Bush

You clearly have no idea how the Meltdown happened.

I realize that talk radio avoids it and sticks with the incredibly simplistic CRA meme, but all the information is out there if you look for it a bit.

Actually, he didn’t

Investigating a foreign connection is not spying

The Federal Reserve stabilized our monetary system to the point it has replaced Gold as the global monetary standard

LBJs legacy was destroyed by the Vietnam war. What was he thinking?

But Nixon, JFK and Goldwater would have made the exact same decisions in 1965

President Johnson's ill conceived War on Poverty cost the taxpayers far more than the Vietnam War did and has continued to this date with no end in sight. Time to declare victory, have a parade down 5th Ave past the Trump Domicile and be done with it.

The reality is, of course, is the WOP was a political move and even Mr. Johnson admitted it when he stood before the NAACP and proclaimed "I've have you n*****'s voting Democrat for 100 generations and the blacks gave him a standing O.

Very, very few Americans objected when FDR interred the Japanese

Even the Supreme Court approved it

Indeed, it's all about the popular vote isn't it.

That's what being a democratic socialist is all about.

Luckily, the Founding Fathers abhorred democracy and tried to create checks and balances against it like the Electoral College.

Locking up Japanese had nothing to do with the popular vote and everything to do with fear mongering

Just like building a wall to keep those Mexicans out

Japanese Interment had everything to do with the popular vote. FDR won convincing majorities the vote after the interment plan was imposed. The majority of libs thought the interment was peachy keen and all of the FDR justices on the SCOTUS voted in favor of it. Ditto, BTW, with the FDR Jim Crow Army. Before WWII, America had a very small army, if Roosevelt wanted to , he could have easily ordered integration of the military. But he didn't. FDR didn't allow either Trannies or Homosexuals into the military either

Kind of a disjointed view of American history

FDR had been elected for a third term in 1940 and was not due for re-election until 1944. The interment took place in 1942. No impact on FDR and the popular vote.

The decision to inter Japanese citizens as a threat to security was overwhelmingly bipartisan with a paltry few standing up for the Japanese
Integrating the American military was a decade away

The military was integrated before the archangel Woodrow Wilson ascended the throne. In typical Democrat fashion, he segregated it again.

It's curious how your turds give FDR a pass for putting the Japanese in concentration camps, but you condemn the Founding Fathers for having slaves.

It's not curious at all. It is also why democrats today clamor about reviving his court packing scheme, one of the stunts that caused Congress to limit the President to only 2 terms. He was simply power hungry and had a great disdain for the checks and balances of the Constitution.

At their core, they are really National Socialists.

War on Poverty, Medicare and Civil Rights Act are the most admirable social programs of any President. Why LBJ is considered so highly

Helping those who need help is never wrong. It was Republicans dismantling the War on Poverty that led to its failures

The Civil Rights Act was passed by the GOP.

A different animal indeed that the War on Poverty which is a failure and is an unwinnable war. No Republican has ever ended it.

Wrong again
It was bipartisan and signed by LBJ

What makes you think the War on Poverty would ever end?
We invest trillions in the military and those wars never end
