Why Grant? He had scummy friends, who tried to, and did, screw him over. He was a well-meaning president who didn't screw up too badly.

Why aren't Lincoln, Wilson, and FDR on this list?

It does frighten me immensely that the general American opinion considers Barack Obama to be a worse President than George 'Dubya' Bush.

Lincoln kept the country together in a time of crisis. He wasn't perfect in his choices, but he was only human. He dealt remarkably well with the situation.
