Historical Ranking Of U.S. Presidents

Click here for the article in Wikipedia entitled "Historical rankings of Presidents of the United States."

The surveys I like are those of historians and scholars, not general opinion polls like Gallup. The latest, taken in 2015, ranks Obama at 18th out of 43; W. at 35; Clinton at 8; Poppy Bush at 17; Reagan at 11; Carter at 26; Ford at 24; Nixon at 34; Johnson at 12; Kennedy at 14; Eisenhower at 7; Truman at 6; Roosevelt at 3; Hoover at 38; Coolidge at 27; Harding at 42.

Lincoln is 1; Washington is 2; Roosevelt is 3; Wilson is 4; Truman is 5.

Buchanan is 43; Harding is 42; Andrew Johnson is 41; Franklin Pierce is 40; William Henry Harrison is 39.
