James Buchanan.... widely regarded as one of the weakest

Eisenhower ran in 1956 with a home state of PA, but was born in Texas and raised in Kansas. Even ran from New York in 1952. Hell, I'll claim him because he was the best

I'm a native Virginian, so I'll go with Virginia since Georgia's President isn't exactly the greatest.

George Washington
Thomas Jefferson
James Madison
James Monroe
William Henry Harrison
John Tyler
Zachary Tyler
Woodrow Wilson

They're all awesome because Virginia.

Truman had a pretty disastrous Presidency when you really look back on it.

Do you count Woodrow Wilson as a Georgian?

Does it count if your state had a Vice President who was fricking a future president?

LBJ was a chitty human being who was a decent leader but terrible president.

Bush was a good human being who was a Less than average president and a fair to meddling leader.

You're an uneducated kid if you believe this.


I'm a die hard conservative but even I know to step back and separate facts from politics


He was a good man and did good things.

Bill Clinton.

The economy was better than when he started, and he left a budget surplus, moved folks from welfare to work.

He might be the best president of my lifetime.

As a conservative, I cannot disagree with this at all.


His fiscal responsibility shamed all that have come after him. We would not have trillions in debt if he would have been our president for another 20 years.


I hate abortion and many other liberal agenda items but I cannot understand why others cannot be as fiscally responsible as Clinton was. I don't care who's cigar was put where

I am also a conservative, but I give credit where credit is due. As bad as all of our presidents seem to be in some way, Clinton wasn't terrible.

As far as Conservatives go, what have any of them conserved? GOP has meant lower taxes for the rich and lots of war.

Is that it? Even Bush's SCOTUS nominees aren't conservatives.
