Incumbents have won 13 of the last 18 elections (which goes back to 1900). Losers:

1. William Howard Taft -- temperamentally unsuited to the Presidency.

2. Herbert Hoover -- messed-up economy.

3. Gerald Ford -- entered the Presidency through the back door and was barely defeated in his re-election bid.

4. Jimmy Carter --  Hard luck, bad economy and the Iranian hostage situation. Got caught in a political transition from the Sough voting Democratic as a block one last time to a norm in which the South usually voted Republican. An independent candidate drew away voters who would never have voted for Ronald Reagan.

5. George H. W. Bush -- he had no idea of what to do with the Presidency in a second term.

Heck, George W. Bush and Calvin Coolidge got re-elected despite two of the weakest Presidencies ever... Obama is a much stronger President than either of those.

Are you stupid?

Ah, yes, Pbrower is correct, since the KKK flourished under Coolidge, Coolidge was a bastardly oppressor of minorities, I mean it took twelve years of FDR to give minorities the rights they deserved. I mean FDR was the one that granted Native Americans citizenship in 1924, and it was that bastard Coolidge that locked up thousands of innocent German, Italian and Japanese Americans. While Coolidge appointed every Klan member under the sun in his administration, there were certainly no KKK members in the great FDR administration. And that evil racist Coolidge was lying when he said that the United States was not just a "White Man's Country."

Geez, Pbrower, I should listen to you more often.

Coolidge is miles ahead of Eisenhower and Teddy.
