Here's what comes to mind in terms of facts about him:

- Put an end to the Ohio Gang that plagued the Harding administration
- Signed the Indian Citizenship Act
- Signed the Immigration Act of 1924
- Tried to make lynching a federal crime
- Made taxes very low

I fail to understand how he has a 66.7% favorability rating according to this poll.
Contrarianism. Most scholars and historians look very favourably on Wilson and disfavourably on the gop presidents of the 20s so this forum has decided to adopt the opposite view for some reason
You don't have to be a contrarian to think that civil rights supporter > segregationist who imprisoned critics of his policies.
