Author Topic: Best President? (Read 6801 times)

Er....I tried making a poll out of this......but when I previewed it, only 5 choices were available! Can someone help me?

Anyway, I was just wondering who your favorite president is (yes, who can choose William Henry Harrison). I dunno, my History teacher asked me to do this, and I am kind of curious. :)

You can also discuss the presidents here. This would be so much better if it were a poll, but I couldn't even get it to post, let alone get all the choices on the "ballot". Forgive me if this has been done before.

Now, I've only been aware of politics since Clinton's presidency, so from my experience, I find him to be the best. That's only one out of two, however.

So, using my knowledge of history, I find Theodore Roosevelt to be the "best" president, as I liked his progressionist policies.

Yeah, that's how you do it.

To anyone who cares, you don't have to vote for the 2 or 3 presidents you've been alive for. All you got to do is use a little bit of historic knowledge. :)

Next to Option 5, there's an "add option" link. Click it to add another space for an option.

Yeah, I know. I'm saying that when I added all 43 or so choices, the preview only presented 5 choices.

Try adding the poll anyway. If it's still broken, someone can delete the poll.

I like Abe Lincoln best. I think I look like him.

Truman was one of my favs.

I was born into an age of horrific presidents. I'm gonna say Honest Abe because, you know, he abolished slavery and everything.
I have a Photoshop for every occasion these days, it seems... Czech this out.

YES THANK YOU

Also, poll = VERY no for this topic. 43 choice poll is bad.

The best president, in my opinion, is James K. Polk, notable for being the only president in U.S. history to actually achieve every single one of his campaign promises.

I like Bush, 'cause he's so edjumucated.

But really, I'd say that I don't really have a favorite. I tend to strongly dislike polictical stuff unless it's a Tom Clancy book.

Hmm, Maybe Thomas Jefferson? Abe Lincoln was good too/

Apparently IS and I have similar opinions, considering that if I had posted before him (and believe me, I had plenty of chances), my post would have said something very similar...

My frighteningly tall and stern Contemporary World Problems teacher is apparently related to James K. Polk.
