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).

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.

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

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.

*I have GOT to take a break!*

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