Rate the President Who Was In Office When You Were Born?

This could be fun. On the day you were born, who was the POTUS? You then have to rate that President and state what was good and bad about them.
The POTUS when I was born was Ronald Reagan, very late in his second term. A few months later, Bush Sr. was sworn into office. But it was Reagan when I was born, so that is who I will rate. On a scale on 1 to 10
Reagan: 7/10
Good: Helped end the Cold War
Bad: Reaganomics, Iran Contra affair

Jimmy Carter - 2/10 good man, bad president.

Gerald Ford
ETA: Nevermind, mine was Carter also. When does life begin?

Domestically, Ford presided over the worst economy in the four decades since the Great Depression, with growing inflation and a recession. In one of his most controversial acts, he granted a presidential pardon to Nixon for his role in the Watergate scandal.

JFK was president when I was born but I'm not really sure how to rate him. I've heard all kinds of stuff about his death but not so much about his time in office. Part of that is I've never really studied it

Lyndon Baines Johnson.
He had Kennedy killed.

Nixon was actually a pretty good President. Just power hungry and paranoid. Take away Watergate which looks quaint compared to present day corruption and he was a decent President 6.5/10.

Barack Obama. Great Prezzy. Can't stay and discuss, have to go to ball practice after 6th period.

FDR - he might be the biggest enigma ever to occupy the White House.

My grandfather believed so as well. While I believe the Mafia and Carlos Marcello played a part, I have no doubt that LBJ was involved somehow
