Who is your fave U.S. president?
 

OK I kind of picked this up from the Reagan thread because people were talking about which president was the best, in their opinion. Please don't let this thread turn into a thread that's trying to sway others opinions or bashing someone's choice. Thanks.

My favorite president is Jimmy Carter. He did a lot for the media, was a great humanitarian, and the most honest and open of all presidents. All of the other presidents in my recolation were either trying to keep secret all of what they did in their presidency (i.e. Reagan, Bush Sr., and Bush Jr.) or lie to the public (i.e. Bush Jr. and Clinton).

I thought you were leaving the boards? What's your deal?

This thread is about favorite presidents. Please keep it on topic.

Re: Who is your fave U.S. president?
 

The selection of Jimmy Carter as the best president in your recolation(sic) is mind boggling to say the least. Read a book. Good guy, bad president.


Anyway, my favorite president was Benjamin Harrison. Anyone who is called the "Human Iceberg" because he was intensely obese and had a brutal demeanor is a winner in my book. (Parody!)

I have read several books on several presidents and in my opinion Jimmy Carter is the best.

William Jefferson Clinton, baby!

I love him! AND his wife!

This country saw so much prosperity under his administration....*sigh*

I miss him :(

Re: Re: Who is your fave U.S. president?
 

Ditto. I will say that he's probably done more AFTER he left office than any other former President.

Reagan

In intelligect, I'll say Thomas Jefferson. For varous other reasons, I'd give the nod to Teddy Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln, & George Washington.

Jimmy Carter is a very nice & good man, and I think he'll eventually be held in much greater regard than he currently is. I just don't think it will be about his tenure as President, though.

My favorite u.s. presider would have to be..........Baby Bush..

No other president made me laugh as hard as he does ...natural comedian!

I'm learning so many new words!

intelligence + intellect = intelligect

Honey, thank you for the good laugh! ;)

*I have GOT to take a break!*

That looked wrong as I typed it, but I was too lazy to use spellcheck. Ack!

JFK and FDR

Bill clinton

I loved Reagan when I was a little girl! I thought he was the best thing since sliced bread!

Now I'm a HUGE Bush Fan...Both of em. And Barbara too! I just love that family!

I find it ironic that someone who's sig line says,

"Anything worth having is worth working for"

selects Slick Willie as their favorite president.

Kitso
KS 361 times the irony is so thick, you could press the Grapist's HUGE ASS pants with it

I love Barbara Bush, too! I would vote for her for president before Her Royal Clintoness!

Jefferson, Truman, Reagan, GW...

McKliney

oh, i can play that game.

Name a random president and try to get a laugh.

Let's see.......i'll go with Millard Fillmore for the block please.

Kitso
KS 361 dollars i just won!

The prosperity was directly a result of Bush Sr.

Sorry, It is true.

Sorry, these Clinton references warrent another post... The fact that anywould would mention Clinton over Lincoln, Washington, FDR, Theo Roosevelt, Wilson, etc. is a farse. I hope you people are trying to get a rise. The man didn't do anything except let the foreign powers gather strength... I mean, why? Give me one good reason why Schmuck Clinton is better than Washington... I can give you 10 presidents that did ANYTHING he did, better.

i LIKE this kid.

Welcome to GC krazy.

Stick around awhile.

Kitso
KS 361 presidents that don't have Slick Willie beat in abusing their power for sexual favors

Um, 8 years of prosperity due to a previous president??? Um, no.

Ditto.

are you saying that they are not allowed to have an opinion? the thread asked who their favorite president was, not who the best president was.

edited b/c i can't spell

Abraham Lincoln

yes, that's exactly what they are saying.

no one is allowed to have an opinion but krazy.

funny, but i don't see the words, "allowed" or "opinion" anywhere in their post.

People are placing Bush over all those guys you mentioned too -- equally ridiculous.

Besides, the thread didn't ask for who you thought was the best president. They ask for your favorite, which is a completely different thing.

by saying that he didn't see how anyone would mention one over the other is talking about opinion.

John Hanson

ETA: He lead the country during a war. Well, kinda.

Clinton.





He helped the ecnomy and had a "lil fun" with what was given to him.


:D

I hope you are joking...........

I was waiting for you people to bring Bush into it. How about this, are you man or woman enough to answer the new thread that I am about to post?

George W. Bush, Ronald Reagan

Reagan, Carter, Clinton

The prosperity of the late 1990s was a result of techological innovations particularly the internet.


My favorite Presidents are Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Harry Truman.

Without a doubt--Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln.

My favorite modern president is Bill Clinton. He was a great president who made some mistakes. And I love his wife as well!

It makes just as much sense as thinking it's due to the CURRENT president. Take econ.


Anyway . . .

Overrated for the purposes of this thread:
-Lincoln
-Washington
-JFK (holy christ I can't even believe he was mentioned)
-even Woody Wilson

Roosevelts, however, are safe choices - I'll go with them

See Previous Post on same topic! I Think!:confused:

Friends! Thead!

Will a Mod please comebine these?
