  • The interesting part is that Abe Lincoln and Andrew Jackson were self-educated lawyers, which adds to their brilliance.

    amen on that!

  • The US education has the majority of the top 100 colleges in the world. Nepotism and the merit of a college education should not characterize the education system.

    Q:Both Roosevelts went to Harvard undergrad and Yale law. Only one graduated from Yale though. A: If you guessed the one with polio... YOU WIN!!!!!

  • It devastates me to see G.W.Bush on a list with such men as George Washington and Abe Lincoln. It horrifies me that this will never change.
  • iammyfathersson,
    The only consolation we have is that there is only a few months left in his lame duck presidency...

  • Any history buff or viewer of HBO would tell you that John Adam's Harvard education helped dearly. His parents were simple farmers and he helped build the foundation of this country...

  • Nickzee,
    What frustrates me is that 100 years from now children will be taught about the former presidents and this man will be on the list with such triumphant and inspirational men(maybe women in the future). It just sucks to think about. My elders always told me not to wish my life away, but how can you not wish to hop into 2009 right now.
  • iammyfathersson,
    His place in history is cemented by just being president during the 9/11 attacks. Although he will be remembered for leaving the nation in shambles like Herbert Hoover. The amount of scandals this administration has perpetrated ...

  • We can only hope he will get the Nixon treatment in the years to come I suppose
  • iammyfathersson,
    I can't believe Rumsfeld served in both the Nixon and Bush administration...
    nickzee
  • Coincidence indeed
    Surely his days of "serving his country" are over. Rumsfeld truly is a boob. No offense to any actual breasts out there. Interesting debate as to which(Bush or Rumsfeld) is the worse individual.
  • iammyfathersson,
    If Bush wouldn't have stopped drinking (thus never cleaning up his act), the USA would have saved a few trillion...

  • Very true or we could have used it for better schools
