FDR above Reagan? Heresy, especially on a site like this (one would think). Personally, I don't really have a problem with him being in the top ten given his role in bringing us into the War, but his complete disregard for basic constitutional principles and desire to be "President for Life" move him way down the list in my opinion. He's the reason why we had to pass the term-limit amendment to the constitution.

How did he bring us into war? He did it by "disregarding Constitutional principles." You can't have your cake and eat it too.
