Not like yours were much better. Lincoln? LBJ? Teddy? Really?

LBJ is somewhat debatable, but it's pretty obvious why one could consider him a great president. Lincoln and Teddy are widely considered by historians as being among the best.

Tyler, on the other hand, is clearly in the bottom five for a sane person.

I think Reagan was a horribly awful President, but I can understand why some people would think he was a great one. Same (to a lesser extent) for H. W. Bush, McKinley, Jackson, etc. But as for Tyler, it just makes no sense. It's not that I particularly dislike him or his policies; he was just an epic failure.

Sure, after the other four listed.  Who would be further left than him other than FDR, Truman, LBJ, and Kennedy?

Since TR, Eisenhower and Nixon were all more left-wing than him, I'm surprised at your choice.
