So, after Reagan, who was the 2nd best President from 1964 forward?
Your answer will say a.) much about the general quality of Presidents we've enjoyed over the past 44 years and I suspect b.) a lot about GWB.
Nixon did a lot of good for the nation but had his own faults especially with domestic policy. As we know, he resigned shortly after winning a landslide victory due to Watergate. Watergate was a leftist media created event, much like the Plame affair of more recent times. So I would say Nixon, W (first term only), then Bush Sr. None of the three measured up to Reagan in all aspects.
