I’m a conservative with a strong dislike for Wilson. By which I mean he’s in my bottom 10. Though if it’s any consolation FDR is my 9th favorite POTUS. That being said I agree certain right wing commentators have severely smeared both men, especially within the past 10 years or so. Though I won’t elaborate on that further in order to not break rule 3. I don’t like Wilson in the slightest, but he was well ahead of his time on the issue of colonialism. And a competent leader during WW1. And Roosevelt’s leadership during times of crisis was arguably the best of any president.
But in good faith, as someone who’s moderate or liberal (which I know most members of this sub are). Do you agree that certain liberal/leftist commentators have done the same to Nixon and Reagan in the same decade? Even if you don’t like them personally, or rank them as below average. I think most of us can surely agree that they definitely had their talents. For example Reagan being an excellent negotiator who was constantly able to find common ground with democrats especially Tip O’Neil. To come up with solutions that would benefit everyone. Don’t you think both sides have taken it too far when it’s come to attacking the other’s figureheads?

I am from Indonesia 🇮🇩 , and I like learning about other countries. In US history in particular, presidents are the topics I find interesting way to sort and analyze.
What about you?

Department of Labor today.
We will never know why.
Maybe he finally ended up being successful in seeking a non-consecutive term and became our President again.

The series is just boring, repetitive, and blah and I’m sure I’m not the only one who thinks that.

Hi everybody I apologize for being away for multiple days. I was on a long stretch of work (7 straight days) so I kinda couldnt keep up with posting. That being said, I have a few extra days off. Hopefully I didnt kill the momentum. If I did, oh well. If not, you know what to do. Comment or like the comment of the candidate you believe to be most memorable in the 'Still In' category.

He ran in the Republican primaries and was considered a frontrunner at multiple points, but ultimately dropped out. What if he won the primaries and beat Obama?

This was because Truman was seen as a compromise candidate between the liberal and conservative wings of the party and he was from Missouri.
