Presidential Survivor (ROUND 14)

George W. Bush.

LBJ was quite bad

That was the best part so far!

As much as I hate to, I am going to vote for Franklin D. Roosevelt.

It's a shame that the Democrats have started this aggressive campaign to get rid of the current president, when there's plenty of dead wood left that should be culled first.

That's what I've been saying all along. Hell, I wanted people to vote for James Garfield, but almost no one did. g partisanship. If you people don't grow up, someone like Harrison is going to win.

But there are more than Dems and Reps on this board. All the rest of us would be wild cards.

Actually, independents/third party hold the balance of the majority and they are clearly more conservative. This board has gotten progressively more and more conservative in the past year or so.

Maybe so (I haven't been here that long, so I don't know), but the majority of posters are liberal: https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=20744.0

FDR, he was such a terrible jerk to Herbert Hoover.

This front page of the New Yorker was canceled because of the failed assasination of FDR a week before. Too bad, because this is the best example of what a jerk FDR was:

That's the opposite of what happened. Hoover was a dick to Roosevelt. He tried to make small talk with him on the way to the inauguration, and Hoover pointedly ignored him.

In real life, I would have voted for FDR twice and voted against him twice... he was a good President, but not the best. He should certainly not have been voted off this early, though I wouldn't have wanted him to win, either.

Alas, no names like Garfield and Harrison now predominate... keep voting off major Presidents and this game is gonna get real boring, real fast.
