I would put Ford at the top of my list.
The worst would be Johnson, Bush,and Kennedy.
After reading the history of FDR I would put him and his wife on the bottom rung also.

Thanks for that link. It should be required reading in 7th grade civics classes, if there are such things anymore.

In fact, this is a good idea, wonder why educators hasn't thought about it?

When I was a little boy my father, a college graduate, with post graduate credentials told me something VERY interesting about School, I was just going into 5th grade. He said, "You have now learned all you need to know from your teachers. You have learned to read, write, add, subtract multiply and divide. Your success in life is dependent on what you do with that knowledge from now on. Use what you already know to LEARN everything your head can hold. Knowledge is the only thing that cannot be stolen from you or used by others to harm you.
The Thought seemed original to me at the time, but I have LEARNED since that he was quoting someone else.

Your Dad was a smart man.. .. Of course, this is off topic, but I was in the fifth grade when Kennedy was shot.
