Re: Best Presidents of All Time
Reagan made it feel good to be an American. Whether his politics sucked or not, he had a presence and sense of leadership that was reassuring at the time. Time and circumstances tend to Mythologize(is that a word?) some. In 50 years GW Bush may be considered a genius..LOL
FDR? Loads of economic theorists concur that FDRs New Deal did NOT end the Great Depression 1 and may have prolonged it . Plus how soon we forget how toward the end, the sickly and frail FDR caved in to the USSR and let Stalin walk all over him. Had Reagan been President in 1944, I doubt Russia would have stolen half of europe the way they did.
