I've always thought Dwight d Eisenhower was under appreciated as president

Also i think it would help us as a nation if more presidents had been in the military. Our last 40 odd years or so of presidents show a lack of moral fiber compared to those who were veterans.

He did pretty much invent the modern highway system, but on the other hand he stole it from the nazis after he usurped FDR's power

Richard Nixon actually proposed a guaranteed minimum income in America. This was in 1969, if father America hadn't died in office he would've certainly advocated for it earlier, but to do so while we were actively meat grinding American soldiers to battle Communism was at once ballsy and intriguingly ironic

Lyndon "Black People?" Johnson proposed socialized medicine, resulting in our medicare/caid system today. He also expanded welfare before Wild Bill cut it to pieces while he was busily turning the country into the cyberpunk futureplace it is today

George Washington said "No kings" and left office. This rule continues to this day, the only interruption in its enforcement occurred during Franklin "Dictator for Life" Roosevelt's tenure, after which Congress came together and decided to honor him by making it impossible to break his sick record at ruling America

p much every president up until the 20th century was a backwater hillbilly that would've barely qualified for mid level civil service elsewhere

that don't leave too many to choose from, but I'mma go with FDR

Abraham "Burn it all down" Lincoln presided over our nation's greatest crisis. His only mistake was in not telling Sherman to burn the rest

Yes, John Brown is an acceptable write in candidate on the basis of his song being rewritten for the battle hymn

I always assumed FDR was wrangling a monster considering the tail he pulled while he was crippled. Honestly I think all presidents get that, and I don't want to let a filthy Mick like JFK weasel his way into this poll so I don't think it should count

He was also a creepy lunatic. Listen to the tapes of him begging the widowed Jackie Kennedy to come to some event or other to show support for him. Listen to the tapes!
