    Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and George Washington were all impeccable leaders. Jefferson had a massive impact on our country, and we may not even be here if it weren't for Washington and his time served as general during the Revolutionary War. But, the achievements made by them do not necessarily reflect on how strong of a president they were. President Lincoln not only was the figurehead for the abolishment of slavery, but he stood as this figurehead when a vast majority of the nation believed strongly against him. He worked tirelessly at ending slavery and did it ever so strategically and fairly that to argue against him being the strongest president listed would be absurd.…

    George Washington could arguably be the best president but reasons as to why Washington was the nation 's most well done president can be drawn from before his presidency as a general during the revolutionary war. During the war he demonstrated great strength in leadership and intelligence, leading his outnumbered army away from defeat on two different occasions that gave them a much needed advantage that ultimately won the war. The first occasion was during the battle of Princeton on December 26th 1776 and in Morristown in 1777. During both instances, Washington seemed to be outnumbered and losing the battles but managed to outsmart the British on both accounts. Afterwards when he was unanimously elected by the electoral college in 1789 and…

Some of these presidents having the admiration of the public for being one of the best presidents, and some just have the scum left on the floor. In my opinion one of the best presidents we have had up to date was Lyndon B. Johnson for his hardy attitude, and having the knowledge to comprehend what he can and cannot do. The worst president goes to Bill Clinton for his wishy-washy, hardheaded decision-making, and for risking national security for personal affairs.…

    Personally i think George Washington was one of the greatest presidents because of what he did, who do you think the greatest president was?

I also think he had a lot of knowledge and tried new things out, and was very succesful with the outcomes and ideas.…
