Of those listed, Eleanor Roosevelt.

Edith Wilson should be on this list.  After her husband's stroke she was basically the President.

Emily Taylor because all she did was sit at the White House, smoke a corn cob pipe, and take walks to talk with the regualr folks.

She helped a lot for Black civil rights.  She didn't pass any legislation, like every First Lady, so what does it matter what her ideology is in determining her "greatness?"

Seriously, I'll go with tradition and say:

1.  Dolly Madison
2.  Edith Wilson
3. Eleanor Roosevelt

Hillary Clinton was pretty much taken out when healthcare failed.
