It's very interesting how strong of a role Christianity played in the lives of the men who ended slavery in both America and in Britain.  In fact, we find that the very concept of human rights and equality, as it exists in western civilization (and did not exist in the Rome (the republic or empire) or the Greek states), comes directly from Jesus.

oh please.  Shut the fuck up.

There are historians who think Lincoln may have been gay?  what would all of your jesus friends think about that one  nervous

I agree with the rankings. Lincoln was the best IMO. He presided over some of the most difficult events of our country's history.

Truman was very unpopular when he left office but he is now near the top. Carter has fared batter as time went on. Should be interesting to see how W is looked back upon in 20 years.

Not sure why Truman is so highly rated.  props for dropping the a-bomb to end WW2, but I don't think he was a good president. completely f'ed up the Korean war.

If Bush JUST had Iraq under his list of screw ups he might get some slack down the road from historians - but the way things are going with this recession, I don't see how he'll be viewed favorably later.

Bush will be seen as the pig headed fucker who brought us into the second Depression, that is how he will be looked back upon.
