Who Is Your Favorite/Least Favorite US President?

[AvsJoe]

Ha ha, anyway, who is your favorite and least favorite US president?

I have an odd choice for my favourite president:

Fav: William Henry Harrison. He was a war-hero, but he was rumoured to have stolen his election and died of pneumonia two weeks after giving the longest inaugural address in history during a blizzard. Whoops...

Second Fav: Roosevelt. For obvious reasons if you know your history.

Least Fav: I choose Dubya. I know being the 'leader of the free world' is a tough job but no one else in history screwed up as badly as he did.

Favourite.... Lincoln, Clinton, Jefferson or Teddy Roosevelt. From what I know they all worked immensley hard to make their country great on the world stage. Clinton shouldn't have been bashed so hard in the media during his presidency though. (Yea, I know he cheated on his wife.)

Least Favourite. Reagan. How he got a 90% approval rating I don't know. He wasn't a good leader, ignored the major problems of AIDS and drugs until it was a little too late, should have got impeached due to Iran-Contra but got away with it due to Oliver North taking blame, and went to a fortune teller before every big event. (We could've had WWIII if the fortune teller thought that was right...)

My favorite is Abraham Lincoln, for successfully guiding the country through the most difficult period in its history. No president has had a tougher job than he did.

My least favorite is Andrew Johnson because that guy was an asshole, a racist, and almost managed to stop reform in the south before it could even begin.

Favorite: Clinton-I dunno, he just seemed like a fun guy, like I could actually sit down and have a conversation with him and it not be weird.

Most suck: W. Bush- I am almost to the point when I visit other countries I want to lie and say I am Canadian because of that man. >_<

I'll go with Lincoln for my favourite.

And Nixon for the most hated.

Wow, a lot of FDR hate. I'll agree he pretty much steered the US into WWII (which you might argue actually makes him the deftest diplomat the US has ever had in that high office), but he still ended the Depression as a result, and basically helped shape America as we know it today, especially by having Truman as a VP for that last term. The GI Bill, the racial integration of US combat forces? Guess what Republicans, you guys OPPOSED that shit. Look it up. W/o the GI bill, a whole heck of a lot of grandfathers would not have been able to become college educated and move to the suburbs. Like your houses with your bright green lawns away from all the crime and corruption of the inner city? Say thank you to Mr. FDR and Mr. Truman.

So, I guess what I'm trying to say is FDR-Truman are my favorite due to reforms. Teddy Roosevelt is my biggest badass president.

Worst? Well, Harding, Buchanan, Reagan, Bush(read Cheney). Also Hoover and Taft were idiots.
