So, who do you think was our last President that respected the constitution? In light of the recent Bergdahl fiasco it got me thinking about when was the last time we had somebody in office who genuinely cared about leading within the limits of the constitution.
My vote would go to Reagan.

Reagan is the right answer. He loved this country.

Before that it was Kennedy.
Kennedy was like the Joe Namath of presidents.

You gotta be a pretty big pessimist to say Washington didn't respect the constitution lol.

Eisenhower and Kennedy were the last two Presidents that didn't use their office to complete their personal agendas, but simply wanted to lead the nation. Two of the best Presidents too imo

Reagan was a good president, but he ignored the constitution as blatantly as anyone. He abused the interstate commerce clause like a motherfricker.

Technically slavery was completely constitutional... it's the DOI that says "all men are created equal"
