Puts Lincoln as number 1, followed by Washington and FDR.

My main beefs are Woodrow Wilsons and JFKs high scores. The first was an intelligent but dislikable man who combined horrible people skills, misguided idealism, and old-fashioned southern racism. The second is simply overrated and made some pretty large blunders (getting into Vietnam, Bay of pigs, and a Cuban missile crisis that turned out well but should have been avoided in the first place).
