Naw, PB's Ronald Reagan

U.S. Grant's Harry.  Scandal-ridden, but politics OK.

How am I racist?

We all know I am the Herbert Hoover of Atlasia.

Smoot-Hawley was a stupid tariff, but Hoover was a great man. All President's make their mistakes. Let's look at Madison, listening to his Secretary of War in 1813 and not guarding Washington better.

Joseph McCarthy-AuH20 or Richius

Can't speak for AuH2O, but I agree with myself being there.  McCarthy was a GREAT man.

Yep, terrible person, but a good politician

[John Dibble]

I like to consider myself a 'with the times' Thomas Jefferson - some of his views wouldn't work today simply because the world is so different.

Hawley-Smoot tariff was in 1930. The Revenue Act of 1932 was a massive tax hike to pay for Hoover's big spending, Keynesian economic policies.

I knew that, I am mainly upset about Smoot-Hawley, but the Revenue Act was justr a big tax, nothing compared to the one's FDR would enforce though.

FDR, eh?  Well, I wish he had gotten into WWII sooner, but other than that, he was fine.  Liked his economic programs.  Very progressive.

He wanted to get into WWII sooner, but the right wingers (the America Firsters) are what stopped him.

No, it was the Democratic Congress afraid that they would lose seats if they declared war in 1940.

Jefferson wasn't a racist.

Not only wasn't he a racist, he was the antithesis of the racist.  Which is quite a feat, given that he was a wealthy proper englishman.  Hamilton, on the other hand, was quite a racist, as we've discussed.  But then it really was more socially acceptable in those days, so don't be too hard on Alexander.  Anyway, he had much bigger skeletons in his closet

I'd be Eugene Debs

Welsh actually. His family originally came from the same area as one branch of mine

I am almost positive Jefferson was a racist.

D'oh.  I think one of your peeves is when we use the word England or English when we mean Something larger.  Sorry to be so insensitive.  I too get upset when I hear someone refer to Netherlands as "holland" when I know damn well that "holland" is only a small part of the country known as The Netherlands.  I think inaccuracy generally bothers you.  I'll try to be more careful.
