Andrew Jackson was one of the most controversial presidents ever. He was widely considered a hero for what he did for the country while he was in the military.

Just look at the progress our nation has made over the past decade: Our economy is booming, taxes have never been lower, and Americans are rejoicing in a wave of liberty that I embrace with every fiber of my being. As your president, I will apply the principle that ‘government that governs least, governs best’ to every decision I make, every law I support, every regulation I enforce.

From all of their statements and views that have been told, I along with millions of other Americans believe that Hillary will be a better president. First, Clinton would be a much better Chief Executive because she has seen the job done first hand from her lying, cheating husband, Bill Clinton.

Many historians believe that Lincoln was one of our few truly great presidents for a number of reasons, even though not everything he did was perfect. Lincoln deserves his ranking as a great president because he was able to preserve the government of the United States and then restore unity to all of the states under one government.
