How would the following Presidents:
Woodrow Wilson
Franklin D. Roosevelt (Pick either Re election)
Dwight Eisenhower
Richard Nixon
Ronald Reagan
Bill Clinton
Barack Obama
Be Remembered if they lost the respective Re election Bids? This thread is inspired by both my "George W. Bush loses the 2004 election. Is he remembered better or worse than OTL?" thread and the thread President Truman's historical reputation if he lost in 1948? by @Glass Onion, which is why Harry Truman and George W. Bush aren't included in this thread. Now I know you're all going to say that all the Presidents on this list (except Wilson and President Obama) were going to get re elected no matter what and their losing would be ASB, but just imagine for a moment that luck wasn't on their side and they lost. How would they be remembered? For example, Would Reagan still be (falsely) given full credit for the end of the Cold War if a Democrat (probably not Mondale) won in 1984? If Mitt Romney won in 2012 and actually repealed Obamacare, how would this affect Obama's legacy? How would Bill Clinton be remembered without the Balanced Budgets and historically low unemployment rates that came in his Second Term?
