He's a very special and impressive man. And for all the shit he's had to take and had to deal with, he's a remarkable man. He is a giant surrounded by gnats. History will be very kind to this President. It's unfortunate that he'll have to wait til long after his second term ends to get the respect he deserves and has MORE than earned. I suspect he will come to be regarded as one of the GREAT Presidents of our history.

I also look forward to seeing ronald reagan drop down farther and farther on the list. Horrid president, with a legacy mainly of greed and selfishness, and "Millionaires On Parade".
