Granted, no presidency is without controversy and fault, but a great country is lead by greatness at the top, regardless of the party.
IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER - TOP 5
Theodore Roosevelt - Created the National Parks and accelerated America's pace towards being a world power.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt - Guided the country through the great depression with the New Deal and laid the foundation for victory in WWII
Ronald Reagan - Credited with paving the way to the end of the Cold War. Inspirational leader who was admired at home and abroad. Scared the crap out of the Soviets, but became friends with Gorbachev.
Bill Clinton - Greatest recent economic expansion during Tech bubble that paved the way for our information society today.
Dwight D. Eisenhower - a Republican who employed Keynesian economics to its utmost with great success. Biggest infrastructure boom in American history. Low unemployment. Warned of the Military Industrial Complex.
HONORABLE MENTION -
