It's hard to even think about any others when the question basically describes Carter.

Andrew Jackson.

Just kidding. Probably one of Buchanan, Garfield, Harding, or Carter.

Carter was much less "kind", "sweet" or "gentle" than his public image suggested.

You don't go from Plains, GA to the White House on kindness. Of course Carter was ambitious, and he knew how to play the political game, but relatively speaking, he was all of the above.

Taft, but I'm currently biased by reading The Bully Pulpit by Doris Kearns Goodwin.

Carter, the epitome of what was a great president who unfortunately was elected at a bad time.

The pinnacle of the gentrified, testified, Southern Fried gentleman himself, James Earl Carter.

Wasn't Carter an absolute dick? His conduct in 1976 was awful from some accounts

I was surprised only one person said this...I've heard a lot of historians say he was our "nice guy" president. Supposedly, when he was shot, he was concerned about the assassin's safety....
