February 23, 200323 yr Same question as before.... Different parameter. What President is most Underrated in the 20th century?
February 23, 200323 yr I am a little bias when it comes to this so I won't answer. I am however interested in the responses to this thread.
February 28, 200323 yr George Bush Sr. Handled the situation in Iraq better than anyone could ask, foreign policy led to the collapse of the Berlin Wall and the Soviet Union [much of the ground work he personally laid down as VP], and domestic policy established the economic success the Clinton administration took credit for.
February 28, 200323 yr Jonh F. Kennedy Why is he underrated? because he avoided war with russia and started the space program.
February 28, 200323 yr Kennedy is underrated for that? I dont believe i have ever heard someone say that Kennedy is underrated. Kennedy did nearly push us into nuclear war. For that alone he should not be held in such high esteem. Then if you want to give Clinton a black eye for his moral inepitude, then Kennedy deserves an even blacker eye.
February 28, 200323 yr I think Clinton was a great president and that his private life dosent affect that fact he did a good job. I take it back Clinton is the most underrated president.
February 28, 200323 yr George Washington, j/k...i think it is Clinton! like lowell said his private life doesnt count.He did a great job being a president.
March 1, 200323 yr George Washington, j/k...i think it is Clinton! like lowell said his private life doesnt count.He did a great job being a president. I agree. But I grew up in that generation, so I might be a little biased. If Kennedy is underrated, than so is Teddy R.!
March 1, 200323 yr Author George Washington, j/k...i think it is Clinton! like lowell said his private life doesnt count.He did a great job being a president. I agree. But I grew up in that generation, so I might be a little biased. If Kennedy is underrated, than so is Teddy R.! Why? Make your statement, but back it up with something of some type of substance please, or else your opinion means absolutely nothing.
March 1, 200323 yr Author are you talking about automobiles? Railroads were already in existance prior to Teddy. The automobile did not really become 'popular' until the 1910s. So what transportation are you talking about exactly?
March 1, 200323 yr Not trains, that would be Grant. Cars came around that time. He was responsible for the creation of REAL roads, not dirt roads...
March 1, 200323 yr Author Grant had little to do with the development of railroads. The only thing that came about during Grant's presidency was the transcontinental railroad. Railroads existed in the north and midwest long before Grant. And it was Congress not Grant responsible for the building of the transcontinental railroad. As far as T. Roosevelt, he also played a marginal role in the development of the automobile system. It was not until Henry Ford made his Model T affordable to the everday person that automobiles began to take off. And that was after T. Roosevelt left office.
March 2, 200323 yr Bill Clinton Great President... :thumbs are u serious or being sacarstic is hard to tell.
March 2, 200323 yr Bill Clinton Great President... :thumbs are u serious or being sacarstic is hard to tell. what I meant to say is that Clinton was a great president who is underrated...
March 2, 200323 yr He was a great president. Just the Monica thing. That was stupid of him, but he handled evrything well and avoided lots of wars.
March 2, 200323 yr Bill Clinton Great President... :thumbs are u serious or being sacarstic is hard to tell. what I meant to say is that Clinton was a great president who is underrated... Oh ok DT becuase many think he was a bad president so...
March 2, 200323 yr He handled everything well, just his personal life... Get this! Bush's I.Q.= 91! :unsure : Clinton's I.Q.= 189! That's crazy.... :w00t
March 2, 200323 yr He was a great president. Just the Monica thing. That was stupid of him, but he handled evrything well and avoided lots of wars. I wish they wouldn't get into the personal lives of presidents. Everyone has done stuff and there's no reason to bring them up.
March 2, 200323 yr Exactly. But do you think its easy to have the last name Clinton while being in school during that time and even 'till now? LOL.
