Professors Brandon Rottinghaus, of the University of Houston and Justin S. Vaughn, of Coastal Carolina University curated a 2024 presidential ranking poll among academic historians. Their survey was used as evidence by President Biden in the recent debate that he is among the best U.S. Presidents and President Trump is definitely the worst president ever -- according to academic experts. 154 professors responded to their query among over 500 solicited. The survey is indicative of the long ideological project such endeavors represent since their inception with Arthur Schlesinger and his son as a John F. Kennedy speechwriter. These projects have a consistent goal of reifying Democratic Presidents and deconstructing Republican Presidents. They play an important role in overinflating Democratic Presidents as if they are political demigods. This century-long academic misrepresentation contributes to the rhetorical implosion of the Biden Presidency today.
The important novel contribution of the most recent presidential ranking survey is that Franklin Delano Roosevelt is elevated to the second greatest President of all time behind Abraham Lincoln. Donald Trump is awarded a score of 10.92 on a 100-point scale. By comparison, Joe Biden receives a 62.66 score and FDR at 90.83. Biden is according to 154 professors the 14th best president among more than 45 U.S. Presidents. Obama has a score of 73.8 and has moved up nine slots since he was first rated during his presidency in 2015 -- he is ranked the number seven president of all time.
Only six modern presidents (in the past 100 years) make the top ten and all but Eisenhower are Democrats. The survey reports that Calvin Coolidge has fallen seven positions since 2014 from 27 to 34. Coolidge was Ronald Reagan’s favorite President. Ronald Reagan is ranked number sixteen -- two spots behind the incredible Joe Biden.

The study curators explain: “partisanship and ideology don’t tend to make a major difference overall.” Among the professors, this ideological breakdown is provided:
Biden has made a mess of absolutely everything. When will Dem loyalists wise up.
Democrats – 95
Republicans – 15
Yeah partisanship makes no difference.
In educrat-speak, curator means bullshit artist.
When I see someone described as a “presidential historian,” I immediately write him or her off as a useless waste of skin.
Biden is great??? Incredible??

I wouldn’t wipe my butt with this report. (spit)
Academic historians are the lowest form of slime—their job is to hide critical information instead of disclosing it.
That is just downright laughable. Trump is dead last in the ranking. Bwahahahahaha
As time passes and the politics of the raters become less relevant and passionate those rankings change.
John Wayne is an example, when he was alive he was mocked and ridiculed as not being a real actor, today many critics and film people can praise his acting and talent without raising an eyebrow.
I’m an academic expert and I think they’re full of [two consonants]it. Biden is down there with Carter, last year of Wilson, Buchanan, and Van Buren.
Trump suffered from Grant’s problem of picking the wrong people for his administration, though for very different reasons. Where Trump ends up in the ratings will depend on whom he picks for his second term administration.
And yet Bide. Tried to make a big deal out of it at the debate because…you know… they think we’re stupid. These rankings by academics have always been a joke
Rotting House? Yep.
The left has absolutely nothing now actually less than nothing so they have to invent fake lists of experts to spout crap to their idiot voters.
I have two Dem loyalist friends. One watched the debate and proclaimed Biden a “dead man walking”. She also wondered about assassination attempt on Trump’s life. “Intentional negligence?. The other has blocked me on her phone because
after all, “ Trump is a rapist and convicted felon”.
I’d like to think that 50 -percent of all Dems are as smart as my first friend.
Yes, when there is no partisanship.
Didn’t you read what they said, it doesn’t make any difference, so it doesn’t really exist.
Sheesh, man. It’s just that simple!
/s
FDR? The Great Dictator, whose actions are still effing up this country?
FDR was catastrophic
Don’t see how Biden could ever make the list of “great presidents”. Democrats seem to look at everything backwards.
That list is the biggest joke I ever saw.
And LBJ is listed as NINTH?
This only illustrates the steep power-dive death-spiral of academic history that’s been going on for decades.
