>>>In terms of influence I agree with you on Reagan. I don't know that I agreed with him on anything but there is no denying he left footprints. He still casts a long shadow over American politics a generation later. For the same reason I think FDR's inclusion (if that was the Roosevelt Grover meant) is indisputable.

>>>Re Obama, I'm not sure he will be remembered that highly but it's way too soon to tell. Nor do I think he will be remembered at the bottom of the list, as some here like to say. (I'll take Warren G. Harding for 100, Alex).

>>Yeah, but if I were picking guys to hang out with or invite to a poker game Harding would be sitting between Jack Kennedy and Bill Clinton, TR and Franklin would be there, and probably Truman and Ike as well.

>>BTW I've been reading about Herbert Hoover a bit lately. Really a fascinating guy and probably one of the smartest and most accomplished men ever to be President.

>Just bad timing, maybe.

Might have been better if someone else had followed Coolidge and Hoover came in in '33. Check out his bio - amazing life pre Presidency.


Charles Hankey

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy

Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin

Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
