Herbert Hoover (could have been better if earlier)

John Quincy Adams (good if unremarkable president, but I think he would have handled, say, post-Lincoln Reconstruction or the Late 19th/Early 20th century much better than those in that time)

James Madison (perhaps later in his career, in the 1820's or 1830's or 1840's... he wasn't a good President for the British tensions that led to war and the management of that war... could have been worse, though)

I’m not sure I agree with LBJ. A lot of his domestic policy accomplishments are BECAUSE of the time he became President, sadly enough. It’s not like sticking him into 1948 would have gotten us the same results minus Vietnam.
