r/Presidents

Hopefully I’m proven wrong but I’ll find out next week.

W inherited a really good economy.

Perot’s speech got a lot of flack at the time, and I get it.

He kept constantly referring to the black community as “you people”, bragged about how his father employed black employees and his mother gave money to “black hoboes”, and overall he came across as really condescending.

Pero apologized afterwards, but the damage was done.

I’m curious if people here see the speech as genuinely racist, or if he was just out of touch as an older billionaire white man?

Heads of State

I think someone like John Quincy Adams could have been great in it, with his colossal knowledge of the law and strong morals.

Funnily enough, Adams was offered a seat on the Court by James Madison, but he declined by insisting he was too partisan for the job.

He’s hard to rank since he lasted a little less than 3 years. I would probably put him just outside top 10 which is lower than I had him before.

The 5 I have here are just cabinets I found to be particularly corrupt.

John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Woodrow Wilson(who has a PHD), and George W Bush(has an MBA)

The four are Andrew Jackson, John Tyler, Andrew Johnson, and Woodrow Wilson.

During his time as president, Calhoun achieved:

1. Staged a coup against President Elect Robert Singer
2. Declare Martial Law across the United States
3. Deputized Homelander and his army of Supes

What Calhoun didn’t achieve was:

1. Assist Homelander with his goals
2. Repress dissidents

These failures caused Homelander, to “Relieve” Calhoun his duties as president and have his Vice President, former Vought CEO Ashley Barrett to be President.

In my opinion, Calhoun and Barrett would both be ranked as two of the worst presidents in history, by simply being nothing more than puppets for a tyrannical Homelander.
