Coolidge was the last president to balance the budget in all the years he was in office. That alone should rate him as (at least) Good.
Oh, well. I guess no one in DC sees that as a worthy accomplishment any more.
Andrew Jackson strove to expunge all national debt, and finally succeeded (during his second term).
No president before or after ever had zero national debt.
