I will certainly take Jefferson before I accept Woodrow, that's for sure.

In fifty or sixty years, I expect historians to have this as their list (Although not myself):

1. Abraham Lincoln (1861-1865)
2. George Washington (1789-1797)
3. Franklin Roosevelt (1933-1945)
4. Ronald Reagan (1981-1989)
5. Harry Truman (1945-1953)
6. Theodore Roosevelt (1901-1909)
7. Thomas Jefferson (1801-1809)
8. Dwight D. Eisenhower (1953-1961)
9. Lyndon B. Johnson (1963-1969)
10. Woodrow Wilson (1913-1921)

Again, only my expectation of a historian's list in 2060 or 2070.

Thats 50 - 60 years from now, during which time we might have 6+ more presidents, any of whom could bump off some of the names on your list. 

Maybe in 60 years George W Bush will have his dream come true. 
If Wilson can make a list like that, why not Bush?

Yeah; I kind of figured. Wilson and Johnson will probably be bumped off in the near future, maybe Clinton will hit the Top 10.

In no specific order, Washington, Jefferson, Cleveland, Harding and Coolidge. The rest sucked.

No order:

George Washington (F- VA)
Thomas Jefferson (DR- VA)
Grover Cleveland (D- NY)
Warren Harding (R- OH)
Dwight Eisenhower (R- KS)
Calvin Coolidge (R- MA)

William Clinton (D- AR)


 

Any other president I'm either neutral, or very hostile to. I'm wary of putting Ike on there though.
