James Madison, Lincoln, and FDR (in chronological order.)
Madison wrote the Bill of Rights and did a lot to help the cause of separation of church and state.
Lincoln saw the country through the Civil War.
FDR got us through the Depression and most of WWII and generally helped us get going in a more progressive, fair and equitable direction.

What's a United Statesian?
You mean AMERICAN presidents?
My top three are (in no particular order):
1. FDR-led us through both the Great Depression, and most of WWII.
2. Lincoln- Led us through the Civil War. It was a dark day when he was assassinated.
3. Reagan-His economic policies led us to the surplus we had throughout the late eighties and early nineties. He was a good, strong person. He also oversaw the end of the Cold War.
Not a Democrat or a Republican.

Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and George Washington. With FDR and Truman close behind. Oddly enough im a Republican. Ha ha, FDR dealt with a real war without taking away America's freedoms, look up a little something called the Smith act in 1940, and the Japanese internment camps, though I still like him and dont grudge his decisions for he was a great man.

(1) Washington. He helped found this great country and lead the Revolution to expell the British. (2) Lincoln. He lead the Union to victory against the Confederacy and brought the nation together again. (3) FDR. He helped defeat Hitler's Germany and Hirohito's Japan keeping the world safe from tyranny.

Lincoln - he corrected an injust conflict to our founding principles
Reagan - Great communicator and re-invigorated the office of the presidency
Truman - the doctrine is seen in a much different light historically than it was at the time (sound familiar?)

Lincoln- got us through the greatest tragedy in our history.
Reagan- repaired the damage done by Carter & won the cold war. Rebuilt our defenses, beat inflation.
Washington- Had to start from scratch & preserve a fragile unity.

Harry Truman - the man had guts.
Dwight Eisenhower - the man served his country every way he could.
Jimmy Carter - he has never quit serving his country.
Abe Lincoln - lost his life but took the most unpopular issue and realized it was wrong and got it corrected.
George Washington - the man knew how to fight with everything in him. He called on God first and miracles happened.

Washington, without him there would be no others.
Teddy Roosevelt, the monopoly buster, and went against his own party to do it.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Took us out of the depths of the depression and brought hope back to America.
