That's quite a list. I think we should sand blast Mount Rushmore and put the faces of these luminaries up instead -- and let's include GWB too shall we? His very costly and totally unnecessary two-front war certainly deserves to be remembered for hundreds of years as a fine example of the impact a single president can have.
I don't think either of them would want that done. They were not looking for glory but doing what was best for our country.
No to Reagan in any circumstance. Anyone who says "vote with your feet" to people who have lost their jobs has no heart. He presided over one of the greediest eras in US history. As for Washington and Lincoln, here is a light-hearted article about both:
I still think Washington is one of them, b/c he had to start from scratch. Lincoln saved the Union, but at a terrible cost of lives, ~600,000 at a time when the population of the country was ~ 3 million people. FDR kept it together during the depression. No one since WW II qualifies.

yes old abe did save the union, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so. abe was nothing but a dictator, just like fdr was.
the best POTUS's of the USA were Washington, Jefferson and Ike.
