Finally seing Teddy's name in the top ten where it belongs. Unfortunately people today don't know enough about factual history. All they know are the warm fuzzy things, or the "icky poo poo" things.(yes, icky poo poo is sarcasm.) Teddy R might not have been warm and fuzzy, but he was a real leader. As was Washington, and my personal hero Ronald Reagan.

I didn't watch any of the show, probably figuring that it being The Discovery Channel, that it would have a leftist bend to it. Add that dolt Matt Lauer, and I felt all objectivism and rational would be left out. I was hoping RR would make it in the top 10, but figured he should at least make the top 5, but don't trust anything produced by or with libs.

Though Reagan is my personal favorite, I have to agree with the previous poster about Washington. He laid the ground work for all the great people after him.

Washington was a giant. A bigger than life figure in every way - the right man at the right time. Without him the Revolution would have very well collapsed. Without him the new nation could very well have descended into anarchy or monarchy. God bless His Excellancy.

Teddy Roosevelt was also a figure bigger than life - scholar, biologist, rancher, cowboy, lawman, military man, boxer, martial artist, President, naval expert - he embodied everything that was and should be, great about America.

Ronald Reagan - the only man in American politics willing to stand up to the evil empire, a man who believed government should serve the people and not the other way around. Another cowboy in the very best sense of the term.
God bless Ronald Reagan. The vituperative hatred expressed by the leftist crypto-Bolsheviks toawrds him is a measure of his greatness and goodness.
