Kennedy realized that the Federal Reserve controls our entire political process and government so he passed Executive Order 11110 which allowed the secretary to issue silver certificates. His intention was to get rid of the fed. Unfortunately they got him. Here was a speech he gave a few weeks before being assassinated.

Fuck Lincoln.

Kennedy was stupid, but he had guts, and guts is enough.

FDR is the second WORST President after Wilson. Can't believe somebody said that stupid fuck. You probably think the New Deal was something real and not just a series of elaborate photo-ops and press releases and "fireside chats."

FDR was a bigger bullshit artist than Reagan. He was the master of telling you every sweet nothing you could ever want to hear until you forgot that he never answered a single straight question. Same as Reagan, he could just talk for days and not say anything. That's why everybody loved him. He's the man who made them all kinds of nice promises. Same as Obama now.

Only difference is that at least FDR and Reagan didn't need a fucking teleprompter to give a speech at a middle school. They were REAL bullshitters, they could bullshit off the cuff.

Extemporaneously, that's the word for it.

Forgot Washington, bro.

Anybody who's read his journals and read about his military career in the French and Indian War and the Revolution, Washington doesn't get enough credit for how much crazy shit he did.

Too many people remember the bullshit about chopping down a cherry tree and they don't know about his fucking vast spy network of men he'd personally trained, his sense of honor and integrity that had him hanging his own men for raiding the homes of Loyalists, the fucking winter campaigns . . . People forget that General Geroge Washington WAS the Winter Soldier. That's where we get the term, he was the Winter Soldier Thomas Paine wrote about when he wrote about how most people are nothing but summer soldiers and sunshine patriots.

George Washinton was for fucking real. And he could have bent every President since over his knee and given them a fuckin' spanking.

Yeah Polk's great and arguably better than Jefferson; however, Jefferson gets the edge for his philosophical influence over America. Honestly Washington and Jackson have a significant edge on the rest in my opinion though. Polk's pretty smack dab in the middle between the Reagan/Eisenhower/ Jefferson group and the Washington/Jackson group.

I probably should have put him above Jefferson but I have a real soft spot for Jefferson's work. Polk was absolutely amazing considering he only served for one term. Definitely the most underrated president.

FDR was redpilled, made us into the foremost world power, and tricked Japan into confrontation with us. Bernie was a cuck.

>In 1923, as a member of the Harvard board of directors, Roosevelt decided there were too many Jewish students at the college and helped institute a quota to limit the number admitted. In 1938, he privately suggested that Jews in Poland were dominating the economy and were therefore to blame for provoking anti-Semitism there. In 1941, he remarked at a Cabinet meeting that there were too many Jews among federal employees in Oregon. In 1943, he told government officials in Allied-liberated North Africa that the number of local Jews in various professions "should be definitely limited" so as to "eliminate the specific and understandable complaints which the Germans bore towards the Jews in Germany."

>There is evidence of other troubling private remarks by FDR too, including dismissing pleas for Jewish refugees as "Jewish wailing" and "sob stuff"; expressing (to a senator ) his pride that "there is no Jewish blood in our veins"; and characterizing a tax maneuver by a Jewish newspaper publisher as "a dirty Jewish trick." But the most common theme in Roosevelt's private statements about Jews has to do with his perception that they were "overcrowding" many professions and exercising undue influence.

You should learn some History that wasn't cooked up in a nonsense factory by the Rockefeller Foundation.

FDR had foreknowledge of Pearl Harbor weeks in advance:

http://www.apfn.org/apfn/pearl_harbor.htm

FDR was a TRAITOR to this country. He worked for the Rockefellers and Rothschilds and he was a good employee for them, nothing more or less than an actor.

Nixon wasn't that bad a President ironically, aside from being a corrupt dick. His foreign policy in Vietnam was questionable, but elsewhere it was pretty good. He opened up China and handled a lot of dicey shit in the Middle East and with Russia fairly well, all underrated achievements. Created the EPA, ended the draft and overall provided stability to the country.

He's often listed as one of the worst presidents ever which I feel is hyperbolic. The disastrous Watergate Scandal is kind of balanced out by some of his more significant achievements. He wasn't an all-out awful President like some others.

congress denied him war approval more times than can be counted on both hands. usurped congress by waging entire war via executive orders. suspended writ of habeus corpus in northern states. shut down newspapers that questioned his policies. had army drive out duly elected governor of union state missouri and replaced him with puppet governor. future generations indoctrinated by coinage, 5$ bills, memorials, streets, towns, cities, counties, named after him. brainwashing from the first day you enter kindergarten and see his image above the chalkboard. lincoln was the fucking antichrist. sic semper tyrannis and youre a bluepilled fucking dumbasss. gtfo.

He was never a republican, he was a democrat and ran on a war ticket. Stop spouting stuff you don't understand.

>rejecting radical reconstruction

Well yeah, radical reconstruction was idiotic and was bound to fail. He stayed pretty consistent in his reconstruction views, views that were closer to Lincoln's than the radicals.
>>
>>70703802
He wanted the Unioun to be held together, regardless what was fought for in the Civil war. You should reaCogress passed the tenure of office act just to stop him from fucking up the reconstruction further. He was an absentee vice president and decided touring to defeat republicans (as president) was better than actually presiding over the Union.

He was put in a bad situation. Too bad, so sad. So was LBJ when he inherited Vietnam and most people don't have good memories of him either.

That doesn't magically make him a better President. he was still crappy even if his situation was "unfair."

He belonged to the republican party because he agreed to run the ticket. Doesn't mean he was a true republican.

Look at Trump. He's only running republican because third party isn't taken seriously.

Because Johnson fucked up Vietnam. Nixon inherited a worse version of Vietnam and actually got a peace treaty out of it.

Johnson stayed true to his word and did a good job as he could do to hold off radical reconstruction with the tools available.

>>70703997
Grant had multiple bills passed over his veto. Congress could pass bills with a supermajority after the Civil War because Republicans literally made it illegal for Confederate veterans to vote, so their pet niggers and their handlers in the South elected a huge majority.

These laws, excluding anyone who had aided the Confederacy from voting, provided a seemingly significant impetus to the formation of the KKK and other paramilitary groups in the South. Because whites were prevented from voting, they went to great lengths to prevent blacks and Republicans from consolidating their hold and fundamentally changing the South. I think the failure of reconstruction and the regional/racial animus that persists today are in large part due to overzealous Radical Republicans.

Anyway, I think the reputation of Lincoln, like any assassinated leader, benefits from the fact that he did not live to deal with Reconstruction. I'm certain he would have done a better job than Jackson, but his own party was already turning on him, and it would have been messy. But his political capital and established executive control might have allowed him to come through okay.

Now imagine anyone else stepping into that role: the country is in a shambles, you haven't been elected to the office of the president, the south would hate you even if you had been legitimately elected, niggers are running wild in the streets, Union soldiers stopped caring about anything but killing Confederates in 1862, there's awful class tension, etc etc. Jackson was president at literally the worst time in the nation's history.

Reagan wasn't a good president. He raised taxes 11 times, he raised taxes on social security, he cut and run from Lebanon letting hundreds of marines die, reaganomics was a total disaster, he negotiated with terrorists, he sold weapons to Iran, he sold weapons to al quieda, he used the money from the arms deals to fund the contras in Nicaragua. I have absolutely no idea where the god worship republicans give him comes from. I don't even think you guys know. That guy would get booed off the stage of he tried running today as a republican.

Yet Reagan's increased defense spending and raising the stakes was widely criticized at the time, liberals and even many Republicans wanted detente and disarmament which would have given the Soviets the breathing space they needed to sort their mess out.

Reagan saw weakness and pushed the world to the brink of WW3. The Soviets blinked and he didn't.

Hindsight is 20/20 but remember Kremlinologists at the time imagined the Soviet Union lasting decades more, it wasn't seen as weak nor crumbling.

Teddy was literally the GOAT POTUS. Nobody can ever rival his cavalier kickass attitude on foreign policy, his great, major breakthrough in the creation of the national park system, and his policies of busting up the piece of shit monopolies.

No president save Andrew Jackson can even come CLOSE to that legacy of many ass kicking. Teddy is the idol of man. He is the true image of manliness that all true men should strive to be.

Red pill on FDR /pol/. I'm conservative, but in my mind, I think emergency government programs for the population during the Great Depression was the only right move to make at the time. I'm against degeneracy, but at the same time, I don't think there was any other option.

Also, I know WWII got us out of the Depression, but I think I would be lying if I said the New Deal didn't help SLIGHTLY.

Madison deserves mention as well.

Lincoln was tyrant and set the precedent for absolute federal supremacy which has played no small part in the corruption we have today, if he hadn't been made a martyr I have no doubt he wouldn't be remembered nearly as fondly as he is.

Regan was shit too, he just happened to be president at the right time when the Soviet Union finally started to crumble and is accredited for accomplishments carter and ford had long since set in motion, carter wasn't great himself but he was more of just a lackluster president than a monumental fuck up, regans actual presidency was a mess and we are still experiencing the fallout.
