Maybe that he had the right qualities and attributes to become a decent President, but that, unfortunately, history dealt him a dreadful hand, and that is what he is remembered for.

Anyway, FF.

A bad President, but a genuinely good man. Had no place in politics.

Not his presidency, but him as a human being.

Why so much sympathy for Hoover here? I thought for sure we would do worse than Harding.

And are you guys voting based on his presidency or him as a person (since so many of you say FF as person but HP as president)?
