Fake Historians, writing fake history, to be ingested by the half educated fake geniuses that believe everything the liberals tell them.

12th best by what metric? Were they trying to figure out the 12th WORST and he was the twelfth closest to that position? He was 12th best at being the 12th worst?

I doubt that Teapot Dome is any worse than Credit Mobilier during Grant. Sec Interior Fall was the culprit, there was never any indication that Harding knew about it.

"Who are these 'historians'?"

Here is a quote from one of them:

"Although 12th is a respectable overall ranking, one would have thought that former President Obama’s favorable rating when he left office would have translated into a higher ranking in this presidential survey," Edna Greene Medford, a Howard University professor and member of C-SPAN's historical advisory board, told Politico.
The agenda is pretty obvious.

Cspan used to be fairly neutral. Not any more; if they lean any farther to the left, they’ll find themselves in China.
