You mean kind of like the way Clinton spent money to cut the military in half, then blew more money on quadrupaling its activity around the world?

And can someone tell what specific actions that hillbilly took to make the economy boom like it did, or was he just a bystandard?

Folks the president doesn't have any real power over the economy. He can influence, but he can't take any legal action.

Anywho back to the topic:

Me and my friends have talked about this over many a beer. We came up with a couple answers:

Washington. The man. HE got it all started and if it wasn't him, we could very easily be a monarchy.

Lincoln. Lead the country through its greatest conflict. Stood tall in the face of adversity.

Teddy Roosevelt. My pick. Brought the USA into the 20 Century and established the enviormental movement. The United States is a world power because of him.

FDR. I don't personally agree with this, but my buddies insist. He was a beacon during WW2, I just think a lot of other things were questionable.

Truman. Highly criticized because he made the hardest desiscion an American president has ever made. Also kicked off the Civil Rights movement by desegregating the military.
