Most Conservative and Liberal Presidents since 1964

[bobloblaw]

1. Ronald Reagan
2. Bill Clinton
3. Gerald Ford
4. GW Bush
5. Jimmy Carter
6. GHW Bush
7. Richard Nixon
8. Obama
9. Lyndon B Johnson

I am basing this almost entirely on economics.

People forget that Reaganomics began under Carter. Carter deregulated airlines-1978, trucking-1980, banking-1980. Carter in 1980 propsed a tax cut and higher defense spending.

Nixon floated the USD, tried to regulated wages and prices.

Ford was a fiscal conservative but after Wategate and 1974 elections many of his vetos were overridden.

Clinton as #2.

Reformed Welfare, Passed NAFTA, Cut the capital gains tax in 1997 and repealed Glass Steagal in 1999.
Federal Spending fell from 22% of GDP in 1993 to 18% in 2000. In fact Clinton might be #1.
