DBWI: Who do you think was America's greatest President?

IMO it was either Omar N Bradley, who managed to bring All of North America In the Union shortly after World War 2,

or it was John F Kennedy, who managed to end the Cold War in 1967 with the Third Reich collapsing weeks later

JFK's overrated in that factor. The German Reich was on the edge anyway.

I thought Bobby Kennedy was a good leader. Many may have shouted about his running after Jack being an attempt at a royal "Kennedy dynasty", but he did very well in a post Nazi world and played a key role in organizing the world after the Nazi empire fell.

However, President's Franklin Roosevelt (1933-1945) and Henry Wallace (1945-1949) did lead us to victory over the Japs in the Pacific war which was the pivotal point of the US in the 20th century.

OOC: This is in After 1900, so I'm keeping it to the 20th and 21st centuries.

well, Omar Bradley brought postwar stability to North America, but the El Salvador affair is one big stain on his presidency.

Don't remind me on the FLQ bombings after 1957.

And there was also Ronald Reagan, and his post cold war policy of Reaganomics was a wonder, especially with Friedman in the Treasury,

Reaganomics was a very bad economic decision. A quick boom followed by massive deficit, class inequality, corporate corruption, and a Second Gilded Age crashing into economic turmoil which we are trying to resolve today.
 
who the heck is this? Some Koser who panders to every word of Arianna huffington as though it were truth?
