Who is the Best President in Your Lifetime

Who is Your Favorite President?
Seems like there are a lot more people interested in politics than there used to be. Anyone who has a slight bit of interest in U.S. History, or politics should have an opinion on who their favorite president in their lifetime is. People 30 and under might only have memory of the last 3. For senior citizens, the best president might have been President Roosevelt, or Truman. I thought it would be interesting to let people vote on who the best President was, or is.
This is just a fun way for people to vote on whoever they might think is the best president ever. If the one you like isn't on top, then get your family and friends to vote too.
To start the voting off, I will list the Presidents in the order in which they served, starting with the current President first, then going back.

- Happy President's Day. Nice poll. My very favorite President in my lifetime (before I was even old enough to vote) was Dwight D. Eisenhower.

- From the polls above, it seems that people think Democracy and Representative Democratic Republic are the best form of government. Interesting, I thought Democracy would win by far. Anyway, a great lens.
