Congratulations bigs you have indeed managed to beat me with experience. My bad. Won't happen again.

Red, thanks for noticing, it ends here.

Good, clown school is over. You can now remove those over-sized shoes and take your make up off...

Back to the topic at hand. Does anyone want to take a shot at naming the top 5 Republican Presidents? Bonus points if you back up your list with why you think they make the grade. I bet dollar for droughts no one responds to this challenge.

I will take that challenge... and in order of greatness. Admittedly, had to go back a ways.

Abraham Lincoln-Gettysburg address and abolition of slavery
Ronald Reagan-end of cold war
Theodore Roosevelt-youngest, helped end yellow fever, put an end to monopolies
Dwight D. Eisenhower-Ended Korean War, instituted National Highway plan
William McKinley-Guam, Philippines, Puerto Rico and Hawaii

Only three would make my list of these five. Teddy, Ike, and Abe. We are still suffering from the actions of the other two!!! :lol5:

To support one point, compare Roosevelt to Reagan. Reagan tried to destroy Teddy's legacy. Our natural resources and parks. :thumbsup:

Read Crossing the Next Meridian. I've referenced it here in the books forum section, and you will see how we the people are getting screwed daily with natural resource extraction by corporate interests. :smokin:

:jointsmile: yeah, I like Ike. and Abe and Teddy seem cool and who doesn't love Hawaii. :smokin: gonna have to reserve judgement on Raygun, it might not be prudent at this juncture. :rastasmoke:

The hand of Hearst and United Fruit an others were involved in our acquisitions of those islands emmie speaks. The Spanish American War that scholars now believe we intentionally started against a weak Spain. It was over quickly, and the barons got what they wanted. Smedley D. Butler also points this out with our other activities in the Caribbean.
