Any particular reason for ranking Chester Arthur at number 10?
He did a lot to reduce cronyism and corruption in the government, and he was in favor of lower tariffs at a time when many were obsessed with mercantilism. No one really had high hopes for him when he entered the office, as he was an “accidental” President who only assumed the position after Garfield was assassinated, but he left office well-respected and admired. Kind of the opposite of Obama.
