Historians
rank Barack Obama 12th best President:
Survey
It’s only been a few weeks since former
President Barack Obama left the White House, but presidential historians have
already placed him on the right side of history.
AC-SPAN survey of 91 historians and presidential
experts ranked the Democrat the 12th best leader in United States presidential
history — just ahead of James Monroe and right behind Woodrow Wilson.
Another Illinois
politician, former President Abraham Lincoln, claimed the survey’s top spot.
He’s followed closely by George Washington, with Franklin D. Roosevelt rounding
out the top three.
Experts who
participated in the survey were asked to grade the presidents on 10 different
facets of their terms in office, like “Crisis Leadership” and “International
Relations.”
