Do you agree with the general consensus of these surveys, /his/? Are there any presidents who are overrated or underrated?
>>864967
>Obama
>Not in the bottom 10
Shit, biased rankings by liberals trying stroke their communist cocks. Obama has brought more shame and embarrassment to America than anyone since LBJ.

He's still president. You gotta wait for the Hindsight Bias to kick in.
What makes Teddy Roosevelt a great president? I'm not judging him myself, but I'm genuinely curious since everytime it's brought up people just say stupid meme shit like "He was a badass" and "He wrestled with bears".
>>865041
He tamed the robber barons that were out of control at the time
>>865041
A fervent believer in the wonders of the outdoors, created many National Parks.
Spread American influence across the globe.
Modernized the American military.
He's not the best president ever, but he's far from the worst, and he just seems like a cool guy.

>Truman in top 10
>not organizing this list in tiers of "capable of surviving Nuremberg" and "incapable of surviving Nuremberg".

He basically put an end to the Gilded age which had most of the population as slaves basically. After him, monopolies were destroyed and smaller businesses began to thrive. People could control themselves and work reasonable hours.

Quite the opposite. Reddit would down vote his comment out of sight. Maybe you should go there.
>>865041
he was probably the greatest american to ever live
I'd agree generally, with a few exceptions.
W.H. Harrison is underrated; his aggregate ranking at 39 implies that there were only four presidents who were *not* a positive influence on the country, as he did... nothing as president.
Washington is probably overrated. Wilson is overrated as fuck. Nixon and TR and underrated. JFK is overrated, so is Reagan. GWB is overrated, too.
