Brian Lamb: The Presidents: Noted Historians Rank America’s Best-and Worst-Chief Executives

Over a period of decades, C-SPAN has surveyed leading historians on the best and worst of America's presidents across a variety of categories-their ability to persuade the public, their leadership skills, their moral authority, and more. The crucible of the presidency has forged some of the very best and very worst leaders in our national history, along with many in between. From Abraham Lincoln's political savvy and rhetorical gifts to James Buchanan's indecisiveness, The Presidents teaches much about what makes a great leader-and what does not.
What lessons can we learn from America's past presidents? Can these lessons help us choose the next one wisely?
Brian Lamb is the founder, executive chairman, and now-retired CEO of C-SPAN Networks.

So sad looking at our leaders now. Everywhere. News. Politics. Just seems like there were some good decent, human minded busssiness men in the past. Corporations, rule everything. Technology also contributed to decline of civil debate, and respect for others. Its all greed. More, more and more. Getting off the subject , but he seems like a great guy. I watch a lot of book c span.

Trump and Reagan are in the top five.

Lincoln and FDR.
