Not ranking Ford. Otherwise, from best to worst:
Kennedy
Eisenhower
Carter
Bush I
Obama
Clinton
Reagan
Nixon
Truman
Johnson
Bush II
None of them were really great. Carter, despite having hostages in Lebanon, accomplished one of the greatest foreign policy achievements that is still very under appreciated: Camp David - peace between Israel and Egypt. I got the sense from Kennedy that he really wanted to avoid war, and use diplomatic options at all costs. Besides the disaster of the Bay of Pigs (which was really the CIA) his foreign policy was pretty good. Johnson obviously is a different story.
