Axar.az presents top 5 presidents list of USA:

1.Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln is the reason the United States is still United and began the elimination of racism by ending slavery. To do this he began a largely unpopular but necessary war. This made him hated to the point where he was assassinated but he went through with his decision anyway.

Abraham Lincoln was man you could change his ideas. Like slavery he first thought it was good. Then he realized that slavery was wrong. He did almost everything to fix the country. No other president thought about slavery should be wrong or even segregation. Martin Luther king jr was not a president but still fought for what is right. Only Abraham Lincoln thought slavery was wrong. He was a man of changes and does what should be right among us. If he didn't exist there still would be slavery and African Americans would not be equally treated.

2.George Washington

Even more than Jefferson or Madison he fought for a balance between state and federal government.

George Washington kept the fledgling nation alive during one of its greatest challenges, and did it without circumventing the constitution. However, the most remarkable thing about his presidency is that I can't think of anything bad to say about his time in the office. Bush jr., Reagan, FDR, JFK, and Clinton belong nowhere near the top 10.

3.Ronald Raegan

He was able to fix the economy, create twenty million new jobs, lower inflation rates, exempt low income Americans, create economic stability for small businesses, lower taxes, and bring in an end to the Cold War with his concise and effective foreign policy skills. He also was able to survive a gun shot and return to his duty only three weeks later. A real true American who believed in this country and a real true father to Conservatism! Even the democrats loved him.

The only president that was true to his word, most people that don't like him want a pacifist in charge.

4.Thomas Jefferson

Jefferson was one of those rare independent thinkers, who spent his life studying the nature of man; and when you read what he wrote, it was all spot on. All his warnings and insistence on keeping power at a local, state level, where people could be held accountable for their actions were warnings that the entire world, not just America can learn from in today's globalist governments who act with impunity.

He was unfortunately the last of a dying breed of men, whose education of Latin and philosophy was soon traded for the ideals of the industrial revolution.

5.Franklin D Roosevelt

In the 1920's, America was overrun with conservative rugged-individualists who wanted the government to be as weak as possible and hated any attempts by the Feds to regulate the economy. This lead to the Great Depression, which crippled the planet's economy and left 99% of humans dirt poor. Roosevelt brought back progressivism and, more amazingly, brought it into the previously racist and white supremacist Democratic Party. Wilson's attempts to do this during WWI failed because he himself had been a white supremacist and a radical southern baptist.

Roosevelt deserves the credit for actually re-starting progressivism, and in doing so saving the country from collapsing into total anarchy. He passed new laws to regulate the printing and value of money, the competence of banks, emergency funding of schools and hospitals and even some special benefits to the 30% of Americans who were unemployed. His administration also established welfare to protect the rights and lifestyle of senior citizens and retirees, homeless people, sick and injured people, children and pregnant women. Aid was sent to help homeless Americans and other poor people get food, halfway decent shelter, medicine, clothing and water, basic necessities that they were seriously lacking. Roosevelt signed bills into office that gave everyone state run welfare, since almost nobody could afford even simple supplies. He signed in bills to help small businesses from being annihilated and tried to help the banks by proposing new ways of handling money. He had giant public works projects set up like highway building and construction work to distribute money to the needy and to get the government more money without reading taxes too high. So many people benefited from his policies that they elected him four times, more an any other president before or since. This was a man who had grown up filthy rich and generally cut off from poor people, but he cared so much about the average workmen, factory worker, tenet farmer, mother, orphan and homeless man that you would expect him to have grown up in a refrigerator box. And he did all of this, amazingly, without the ability to walk and while paralyzed from the waist down for life. Of course, It would be foolish not to mention WWII. Roosevelt hated Hitler and fascism, but wanted to stay out of the war because he felt that the American people did not want it, and that starting another global conflict would only make the situation worse. Although, even before the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, he was sending oodles of weapons, tanks, planes and trucks across the pond to help Britain and met with Winston Churchill numerous times.
