Greatest US President?

LBJ didn't start vietnam. But he did great things on a domestic level.

And Nixon was a good president.

LBJ misses out on the boat of great Presidents for the same reason as Nixon. A "great" President must be great at both foreign policy and domestic policy. If you mix Nixon and LBJ (foreign policy, domestic policy) then you have a great President.

best: garfield, he has a cartoon
worst: lincoln....MAJOR hypocrite

Does NOONE have an opinion on the Washington or Jefferson?

I think Washington is a cop out. If you look at his presidency it is not necessarily a presidency that screams great. He did a lot of good things, but many of the great things that happened during his presidency can be attributed the great minds around him (Hamilton, Jefferson, Madison, Morris, and others). Jefferson was responsible the largest addition to the U.S. (Louisiana Purchase), however he got rid of the National Bank, and did not have good relations with Great Britain (handed Madison the environment that created the War of 1812). Jefferson could never seperate his personal emotions from business.

How 'bout Monroe?

The fact that George Washington wanted James Monroe brought back from France for being a traitor during his tenure as an ambassador to France. Other than that I have questions as to what he did in his presidency. It is not a crack or anything i just do not know if he could be considered great.

Yeah during his actuall presidency he wasn't all that wonderful...

It was mroe of his career as a general that got him is way to fame.

I think JEFFERSON and LINCOLN

FDR!

Best = Lincoln, FDR, Kennedy, and of course the greatest, Ronald Reagon
Worst = Clinton, weakened our military, decided to pull out of Military operations(Somalia, we could have stayed there and brought order, but decided to pull out with our first casualtys, also decided to stay out of Rwanda), had the ability to stop 9/11 before it happened (his solution to stopping Al Queda, shoot 100 cruise missiles at their bases, most of which did NOTHING. And of course his Scandal, he embaressed our country, and I really hope he doesn't become the First Lady in 2008 😉

The Monroe Doctrine, in my opinion, was a brilliant move...It allowed the US to grow as a nation (colonize), while keeping itself protected from the superpowers that were France, Spain, and Britain.

Monroe's legacy is seen even today...US embargo of Cuba anyone?

got go with FDR for best, worst I dunno, but I'm thinking Truman or Johnson

i have to say, objectivly based Polk, lol he did what he set out to do , indep. tresury, Oregan, mexican territory, he objectively was great, now weather you agrue method, his "greatness" may not be as good as it was, and worst, i think Buccannon

The best? Teddy Roosevelt! C'mon, what president can top killing a cougar with just a knife?

now I know THAT was made for comedy. 😆 😆

Lincoln.Because of the reasons that other poster listed earlier.Next would be kennedy.He did more for the country in his short one thousand days of office than any other before him except Lincoln and washington.

FDR. Had the balls to actually fix Hoover's mess. He also put into action the resistance against Japan.

I, personally, hate Bush the most. Why? Cuz he let the assault rifle ban expire. If you've seen what an assault rifle can do, then you know how absolutely Idiotic and ignorant that really was.

dont forget he threatened FBI agents with arrest when they reported having knowledge that there were plans by terrorists to attack the trade center.a lot of people have been kept in the dark about that.Bush wanted the war to happen.Him and his daddy belong behind bars.

Bush isnt' the worst, he's close.

Buchanan was the worst, he let the Union fall apart. No mater how much Bush has screwed America, America still exists.
