Is it "I disagree with them so I hate them" or is it because these men really were "bad". In my opnion the sleeze bags like JFK, Clinton, LBJ, and Harding were "bad people". Manical men like Nixon were "bad" guys. Guys like Ike, Hayes, McKinley, Garfeild, Hoover, and Reagan were all good guys who had integrity. We may be forgetting wha we may classify as "bad".

He was a racist. He beleived that Anglo-Saxons should have control over the World and that any other race was below it. He loved to insult the Irish as well.

But a lot of Americans had these views for years. Explains why the KKK had over 4 million members in 1924.

Harding was a terrible person. He had numerous affairs, an alleged daugter with mistress Ann Briton (as stated in the book "Forgotten Children"), but he was a good President for the most part.

He wrote the first Executive buddget that was given to Congress. He spoke in favor of balck voter rights in Baltimore and Alabama (the first Presidento to do so on Southern soil), and over saw the nation well. He made one mistake, and that was letting Albert B. Fall into his cabinet.

He had nothing to do with his scandals. If you want to argue he was lazy, that could be argued very well, but for doing the job he was pretty good at it.
