Lincoln>FDR>Washington for the reasons Nathan laid out

All three were great leaders and have many reasons to be at the top, I admire all of them. However Lincoln is really the greatest here, and what SWE said is quite true. Lincoln is simply one of the greatest, most intelligent, most politically talented statesmen in global history, and who did great things for this country and was martyred for it. Now of course he had flaws, both for the standard of his time (Western policy), and by our modern standards (racism), but he was in my view the greatest American President.

Roosevelt.  Not this one, the real progressive one: Teddy.

FDR was to the left of his cousin
