I agree. Washington and Franklin transcended partisan politics and did what was best for the country. That much cannot be said about any politician today.

Washington is Number 1 by a mile for anyone the least bit familiar with our history.

That's the problem right there. Too few are familiar with US History. Elvis, Oprah, Bill Clinton ?????

Please!! We have really lost perspective when we include these people in a list of Greatest Americans.

I love Elvis, I enjoy watching Oprah, and I respect that Clinton was a US President. But they don't belong on this list - anywhere.

Reagan winning does say something though, doesn't it.....

It's like a giant middle finger to the liberals.

Actually Eisenhower was known as a do nothing president.

Those are the best kind of Presidents.

There are times when I wouldn't mind a do-nothing Congress and a do-nothing judicial system.

I figured it would be, but I still like Renaldous a lot though.

Yup. I'm amazed that the Today Show publicized this.

Reagan must be screaming in his grave at what is going on these days.

As a fan of Senator Robert A. Taft (R-Ohio), I'm not the most enthusiastic Eisenhower enthusiast. Nonetheless, Ike's accomplishments as president include terminating the Korean War, reforming labor union practices, modernizing our strategic defense and intelligence capabilities, tossing the Reds out of Guatemala, and starting us on the road to the moon.

"At least the people still know what this nation can be."

Yes, we do, but we better act fast as each days draws more ignorance for those behind us.

With his passing, I believe he should appear somewhere so he is not forgotten.
