overrated as hell, although not as much as the other famous "progressive" president. Has a pretty great PR organisation though.

Would have been great without imperialism, racism, and some of his reforms I disagree with, but he was a total badass so he gets three stars.

Easily the greatest President when it comes to domestic policies of all time. In many ways, the modern day America we have come to know is based around his reforms. Also a great conservationist, in a way that everyone should be able to embrace. His foreign policy was aggressive, but less senseless than many others. Had some personal failings, but was a man of his time.

Easy five stars. It's a jump ball between him and Lincoln for the best President.

Five stars, and behind only FDR and Lincoln in my book. The first progressive and first modern president, so much of twentieth century America has its roots in his administration.

Huh

Those are defining features of TR's Presidency.

Yes, but he created the national park system and was a total badass. Otherwise it'd be a 1 star. He has SOME redeeming qualities.
