Poll: Who is the most badass US president?

[Just_A_Glitch]

Ulysses S. Grant

badass drunk. The main reason he won the war from what I've learned was because he was so drunk and pathetic that he had nothing to lose and made risky decisions. Sounds like a lot of people today. Truly an American hero.

Ha. I'm related to that guy. He's my (unknown number of great) uncle on my mother's side.

So yeah, I'm going with family. Grant. Though Teddy and Jackson are close contenders.

Well I'm from England so my knowledge of US presidents isn't vast but I have to say from what I do know Teddy Roosevelt, not sure if he's the best president you've had but definitely the most badass.

 

[Anomynous 167]

Colbert ofcourse, and why isint he an option?

Because he was/is never an American President.

Why isn't Rupert Murdoch an option? He is an American (A TRAITOROUS ONE TO OUR COMMON WEALTH), and a president, so he should be able to be voted for.

I beg you pardon?

-----------------
I reckon that the baddest (and by bad I mean evil) ex-president on the list would have to be Andrew Jackson,

Most BA: Teddy, hands down. He just did EVERYTHING and took his rage to the presidency, so he is high up on my list of fav presidents.

Fav presidents:
1.Eisenhower
2.Truman
3.Kennedy
4.Theodore
5.W. Bush

I'm going to be a prick and take the question literally. Since there is only one US president at the moment I'm going to have to go with Obama.

Benjamin Franklin, not only was he the president but he also invented some kind of a stove. [http://files-cdn.formspring.me/profile/20110623/n4e03232aa0c7c.jpg]

In the 41st millenium, space marines misquote Roosevelt. Yeah, I rest my case.

 

[Toaster Hunter]

Spoiler: Good ol' Teddy Roosevelt

That image is my desktop wallpaper. You have good taste in art. Yeah, i'm going to say Theodore Roosevelt. The man was badass incarnate.

 

[vxicepickxv]

I'm giving a tip of the hat to FDR, he was an interesting person to learn about and the way he dealt with Pearl Harbor was much better than how recent presidents have been doing things. At least when he sent us to war our economy got better, not worse.

When you draft as many unemployed people as the Army did in WW2, and don't have equipment newer than WW1 stuff, you need to make a lot of new stuff for your newly remade Army.

Teddy's the good Roosevelt, right? The one who rides moose and was father to a Muppet? He seemed like a chill guy. I'll go him.

I know Taft got wedged in a bathtub and it took 3 people to scoop him out. Apart from some stuff about JFK (obviously), Lincoln (looked super creepy without a beard)and Washington (he was the one who loved chopping wood on Fairly Odd Parents I think. I vaguely remember a story about an apple, but I might be getting him confused with Isaac Newton) that there is all I know about everyone listed.

Andrew Jackson sounds interesting, I need to go look him up.

 

[Custard_Angel]

Theodore by a landslide.

Teddy Roosevelt got shot in the chest while making a speech and then continued to do the speech until it was over. He gave a speech over an hour long if I recall correctly while bleeding through his shirt.

Decided to see what old wikipedia had to say and the speech was 90 minutes long according to it. Also when Teddy died. The U.S. Vice-President at that time, Thomas R. Marshall, said that "Death had to take Roosevelt sleeping, for if he had been awake, there would have been a fight."

From what I learned the bullet passed through the folded piece of paper the speech was written on, both saving his life and destroying the speech. He recited a 90 minute speech from memory while bleeding. He also never got that bullet removed. Teddy gets my vote!

I'll say Teddy Roosevelt with Lincoln being a close second. Jackson get disqualisied for being a jackass.
