i voted forLincoln. America was still a slave state before he came along.dangerd0g24Lincoln trampled the federal law for his own follower's gain. America was still a slave nation long after he died.
Ronald Reagan. He dismantled the Soviet Union without firing a single shot.

I'm sorry, but where the hell is George Bush?!error11
You're kidding, right?
Maybe I should have changed Jefferson to Washington.
Reagan left office months prior to my birth, so for my lifetime I have to choose between Bush or Bill.
I won't even go there.
Overall, Lincoln.
That was a man's man. With a man's man's man's hat.

In some ways, he's correct. By dumping far more money into military research, he prompted the Soviets to do the same, which was, quite simply something they could not sustain. Many of the other primary reasons for the collapse of the Soviet Union stem, in some way, from this.[QUOTE="Wet_Sand"]I voted Lincoln. FDR is in second, but the Japanese thing kind of ruined him for me. And don't get me started on Reagan...Sajo7There were a lot of Japanese things around that time. Care to be more specific?The Japanese American internment and relocation camps. Couldn't quite think of the name.
The fact that he never listened to the Secret Service's request to wear pants. :oTeddy Roosevelt. The cuddliest of all stuffed toys were named after him, what's not to love? :P

Great Society FTW!!!
Seriously, though. What do we have now that's any good that Reagan gave us? An extreme amount of debt perhaps.
LBJ gave us Medicare, Medicaid, infrastucture that has held up to today, and the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and the housing rights Act of 1968. THe only pockmark on his resume is the Vietnam War.
