Can we get some sort of record of who's been eliminated? Maybe we can keep track of them as we go, down at the bottom after Barack?

Good work updating it.

Bfine made a good suggestion about a user not being able to - vote the same Pres twice. Probably be a good idea to not allow voting twice and putting a minimum on the number of other posters before you can vote again...like at least 5 posts before you can post again.
Dunno. I don't want to start advocating adding all kinds of rules and ruin Pat's thread. Just thinkin out loud...

Teddy is one of the best presidents that the country has ever had. I'd imagine that if you looked up most historians top 10 lists for presidents, he'd be on 90% of them. The guy was solid all around.

-1 JFK for going forward with the Bay of Pigs invasion after it was pretty clear Cuba knew it was coming.
+1 McKinley for tariffs that promoted domestic growth and setting up a chunk of Teddy Roosevelt's success

He started the trend of the president using more power than they were intended. He wasn't all bad as others.... But he did a lot of bad to take away freedoms.
