Is Geroge W Bush the greatest President since Lincoln?

Question

Obviously he is a great President. Only those mentally challenged individuals sufferring from Bush Derangement Syndrome fail to see that.

So I am trying to decide in a historical context how great is King W?

He obviously is the greatest President since Reagan, but I think there is a strong argument he is greater than even Reagan.

So how far back do we have to go to find a greater President? Lincoln? Washington?

Does Dubya stand alone as the greatest President the US has ever had? If so, is he the greatest leader any nation has ever had?

Answer 1

I believe you may be correct. He is undoubtedly an unimaginably underestimated president. He is hated right now, but soon enough, those who despise him will have to come to grips with his success. Between 9/11 and the economy, it's hard to imagine what it would be like now if Al Gore had been elected. Something else many people do not notice is the fact that George W. Bush is not a politician.

*adding one more thing though, Abraham Lincoln was a terrible president who ignored the Constitution and started the most deadly war in American history, not to free the slaves, but to have himself viewed as an American hero.

Answer 2

He is just the latest gem in the spectacular pagaent of outstanding Republican presidents. What a legacy: Warren Harding, Herbert Hoover, Richard Nixon, Ronald Ray-gun, and now George B. Those pathetic Democrats like Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, JFK, etc. just can't compare. I think history will rank George B right up there at the top with Genghis K., Napoleon B and Adolph H.

Answer 3

I seriously hope you are being sarcastic. No one with an IQ over 20 would think Bush a great anything. Well maybe the greatest moron to ever sit in the White House.

Answer 4

not only is he the greatest, but he is the smartest, most eloquent, most educated, caring, humble, honest and noble president we have ever had.

here is one example of just how wonderful our president it
\
"I've reminded the prime minister—the American people, Mr. Prime Minister, over the past months that it was not always a given that the United States and America would have a close relationship."—Washington, D.C., June 29, 2006

Answer 5

I agree that he is a very good president but not better than Reagan. but in my opinion he is the fourth best president Reagan, FDR, Lincoln, and Bush. tell me have you read the book crazes to the left of me wimps to my right. because you mention BDS- Bush Derangement Syndrome

Answer 6

I voted for W twice. He ranks behind both Roosevelts, Reagan, possibly Truman....He compares favorably with Johnson, Wilson, and Kennedy. He's better than Carter by a long shot......I'll give you Carter......

Answer 7

Apparently I suffer from BDS - 'cause, sorry, can't see it . . . .
Nope, I checked again, and I just don't see Bubba Dubya going down in the annals of history as great - so, guess my BDS is fairly severe.

Find a greater president ?? - pick one, any one - every one's a winner (like they say in the carnival)

Answer 8
