Whom do you think is the best president of all-time?

It needs to be a president from the US.

Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Here was a President and a Man who cared about Average Americans.
He was and still is the model Democrat to which others are measured.

I'd say probably Abe Lincoln. He freed the slaves.

And he put Japanese-Americans into internment camps.

Either Truman or Kennedy. Truman because he made the tough decisions to end WW2, and Kennedy because he had the nerve to stare down Krustchev and avoid a war.

For any that I know anything about, that knowledge is mostly about what I don't like. Reagan maybe. I thought very poorly of him at the time but in retrospect he's looking pretty good.

I don't know enough about them to answer this. From what I know of him Lincoln seems pretty cool but I don't know if he's the best.

Well if it needs to be a President from the US, I'm going with Bill Clinton.

There is no way I could pick just one. I like at least several different presidents for different reasons.

Okay, which of the various President's who have been shot do you mean?

That's hard to say. We've had over 60 presidents and I don't really know enough about each and everyone to say who is the best.

That would entail several presidents. McKinley, Lincoln, Kennedy, Reagan.

Well, I'm going with society here and say JFK--but he was before my time. I would tell you who my favorite President is in my lifetime, but I'd be afraid I'd be booted off of SC!  * laughing out loud *  * surprise *

Lincoln, Kennedy and Reagan were shot (the first two fatally), and Ford got shot at. You may have had a point with great presidents getting shot with the first three, but Ford kind of screws up that theory...

I think my Mary is a great president in her office. The papers list her a president. I am biased.

Jimmy Carter is impressing me much these days. He is a humanitarian, I believe he really does care.

You're still young, you haven't been around long enough to see some really good men that have been in office. It's been a den of lizards for quite a while now, the good ones are there, just not on the surface. Good ones occasionally die by bullet.

When one forms an opinion, it is always best to form one from your own thoughts and ideas.
