jimmy Carter he brought down home southern charm to the white house .did you ever drink any billy beer .or smoke some weed there well thats a rumor but back on point.Carter did his best to promote peace and to this day is involved in making life better for americans he still swings a hammer and helps out habbitat for humanity. lends his voice to help end sensless war and violence and in general trys to promote the best america has to offer the world. remember presidents do not set intrest rates or those of banks and american business squeased the working man hard for two decades trying to break unions and then startes the move to export jobs -- now we trade in paper i sure wish i had learned how to take worthless paper and turn shuffling it around in to a living.alot of the guys i went to school with live in million dollar homes have nice suits and drive fancy cars to an office where there only purpose is to make sure all the paper work is done so that nobody gets what they were promised like with health insurance . they sell you a policy thats 30 pages long and the agent tells you now no matter what happens we pay to make it better.then i get sick and they tell me i am not covered some guy sends me papers telling me where i can appeal this and i fill them out and send them in and i get more paper seems to me this guy really is useless so why does he get so much money .if he had told me the truth do you think i would have paid him in the first place ---not.---.SO what is the differance between him and a street gang that collects a few dollars each week to make sure your business does not burn to the ground.
WELL anyhow if you look at carter a little closer you will see he tried to help america and to this day remains active in the community helping like we all should to make america better.

Thomas Jefferson - He was brilliant and most instrumental in shaping the ideals of this country (mostly before he was President). Franklin Roosevelt would be a close second. He changed the role of government to show it can play an important role in ending poverty, rather than the every man for himself perspective, which almost ran this country into the ground before he was in office.

George Washington and Calvin Coolidge. Both of them took seriously the power of the Presidency and tried to be restrained in its application.

F. Roosevelt because he created The New Deal. The New Deal enabled our country to become the great nation it is today.

Bill Clinton, he left the country in fine shape, but it wasn't George Bush proof. I don't think that anything could have been. Here you have the best and worst president back to back, and if we elect Hillary we could have the best, worst and best again back, to back, to back.
