Believe It Or Not, I’m walking on air
Oliver Willis links to the results of a new Greatest Presidents poll and asks the reasonable question “How the hell do Bill Clinton and Reagan outpoll Lincoln?”
If you were to ask me who the greatest President of my lifetime was, I would have to say Clinton. But bear in mind in my lifetime we’re looking at a real small pool of Democratic Presidents, and as much as I respect Jimmy Carter…
If you were to ask me who the greatest of the 20th Century was I’d say FDR. Greatest of all time? Jefferson. We’ll worry later about what the fuck George W. Bush is doing higher in the poll results than him.
