It takes no PH/D in history or politics to realize that the only POTUS every convicted of felonies (Nixon never charged let alone convicted) is the worst ever (45th out of 45).
It is al;so beyond dispute that Honest Abe, who saved the Nation and paid with his life for that heroism, is the best ever. Barack the Great ranks #7 and is moving up quickly.
If the damn 22nd Amendment had not prevented a third and 4th term, he'd be top 5 for sure. FDR had 14 years in office while Barack was term limited to just 8!
