Why do you like him? The concept of anyone liking JFK seems foreign to me. While my grandmother was starving in a New York City apartment, eating one can of ravioli a day to survive, that d-bag was philandering his way across Europe....and did he do anything as President besides giving some hopey-changey speeches? At least FDR and LBJ did stuff in their terms Tongue

My grandmom loves JFK, and I love my grandmom. That's the only reason he's ahead of FDR. He's number 2 otherwise.

Wilson was a horrible, bigoted SOB.  He was practically William Jennings Bryan, but a little more hawkish.  Easily among the ten worst US Presidents.

as for being a 'bigot', he was a white male born in the south in 1858.  what do you expect?  you cant judge history using the standards of today.

he was a fighter for freedom.  he recognized that democracy is the only solution to the world's problems.  sadly, many people today still dont believe that.

Gonna do these in chronological order so as to not have to think about ranking them.

George Washington (Independent-Virginia) 1789-1797
John Adams (Federalist-Massachusetts) 1797-1801
Thomas Jefferson (Democratic Republican-Virginia) 1801-1809
John Quincy Adams (Democratic Republican/National Republican-Massachusetts) 1825-1829
Andrew Jackson (Democrat-Tennessee) 1829-1837
James K. Polk (Democrat-Tennessee) 1845-1849
Abraham Lincoln (Republican/National Union-Illinois) 1861-1865
William McKinley (Republican-Ohio) 1897-1901
John Calvin Coolidge (Republican-Massachusetts) 1923-1929
Dwight D. Eisenhower (Republican-New York) 1953-1961

I guess. Other possibilities are Zachary Taylor (Whig-Louisiana), Franklin D. Roosevelt (Democrat-New York), John F. Kennedy (Democrat-Massachusetts), Gerald R. Ford (Republican-Michigan), and Ronald Reagan (Republican-California).
