    So who are the No. 1s? I say Lincoln, Jefferson, FDR and I can't decide.

    George Washington is a sentimental No. 1 for most, I'm sure, but he didn't do a whole lot as president. Everything he did before, of course, is what got him there.

    Truman. Monroe also accomplished a lot.

    Monroe, I like that. Very underrated.

    I wonder what Hamilton might have done if he hadn't, you know, gotten shot in a duel. He was a touch on the side of a monarchy when it came to economics, but he did write half the Constitution.

    Who saved the country more? Tough call.

    I probably would too. WWII pulled the country out of the Depression more than anything FDR did.

    Would have done nothing. He was a foreign national and not American by birth...
