Who's the best one history has seen?



I'm going with Andrew Jackson.

Defeated the British with a rag tag army to maintain control of the Mississippi, the most important Port of the country.

Expanded the country westward.

Kicked the bankers out of our government who infiltrated congress.

LAST PRESIDENT TO PAY OFF THE NATIONAL DEBT

Jackson kicks out the bank

"I killed the bank!" Jackson took great pride in kicking out the bankers. He knew it was necessary for the country as the bankers impoverished the American citizens. He did warn us that the bank would be back. It did return as the Federal Reserve.



Which leads me to the GEOTUS. Trump put Jackson's portrait back into the oval office once becoming president. Our president knows what he is up against. It's the bankers and the globalists.

Trump puts Jackson's portrait back in the Oval Office

What's your thoughts? Who do you have??

Indians were at war with settlers at the time. It was war. I didn't say he was perfect. He felt it was a way to end the war, much like dropping the atomic bomb not once but twice on Japan. You can think deeper than that.

Definitely not Jackson-too much use of executive power. I’d go Coolidge. His method of operations was to stay out of the way.

War, like every time we want to take out a dictator we send out propaganda of him gassing his own people?

That kinda war?

I am going to go with Trump. Considering all that is going on and the disaster that was the Obama presidency Trump was exactly the president we needed at a time we needed it most.

It's easily FDR when you consider the fact that he was the catalyst for the Democrats dominating American politics for over 60 years.

Ever? Washington. Lots of shite could have gone wrong early and it really didn't because of the Father of our Country?

Recently (relatively, anyway)? Reagan over the past 100 years and it isn't even remotely close.

At the time he was first inaugurated it was Reagan. Morale in this country had bottomed out. It took him a couple years, but he performed a miracle.

The Charlie Daniels band even wrote a pep rally song to try to nudge us out of the funk in the very late 70s, and it was a hit for several weeks. Youtube That’s how bad it was. Massive unemployment. Big inflation and double digit interest rates. Lines at gas stations. Carter was awful.

Four years later Reagan had turned it all around.

Side note: the MSM did their best to push Carter into office, and had an easier time following Watergate and constant lampooning of Ford. They got what they wanted and it was disastrous for this country.

Wasn't this Jefferson, with the able assistance of Lewis & Clark??

L&C - those boys were bad-arse. Along the same lines as Columbus - not knowing what the hell was out there...
