The President Survival Game - BmorePat87 - 06-30-2015 The game is pretty simple. You repost this list and down vote one President and up vote another. The idea is to eliminate all of the Presidents until only the best remains. You must explain why you are voting that way when you do. No one can post twice in a row. Do not quote the person, just repost the list, otherwise it will be hard to follow. George Washington 10 John Adams 10 Thomas Jefferson 10 James Madison 10 James Monroe 10 John Quincy Adams 10 Andrew Jackson 10 Martin Van Buren 10 William Henry Harrison 10 John Tyler 10 James Knox Polk, 10 Zachary Taylor 10 Millard Fillmore 10 Franklin Pierce 10 James Buchanan 10 Abraham Lincoln 10 Andrew Johnson 10 Ulysses S.

Bush 10 Barack Obama 10 Thomas Jefferson was crucial in the adoption of the Bill of Rights and expanded this country with the LA purchase. Buchanan (who probably was our first gay president) utterly failed and did nothing to prevent the Civil War before Lincoln got into office. I used colors to make it easy to see who has points added and subtracted. If you post at the same time as someone else, the person who posted last should update theirs.

Bush 10 Barack Obama 10 This was difficult. My vote down was down to 3 people. My vote up was between 2. And thanks Pat for making this game. Will be fun and interesting to see the results. Vote up: Calvin Coolidge - he did many things such as dropping tax rates, undoing a lot of nonsense. But the thing that set him apart was that he knew that the job of the president was to do as little as possible and let people live.... Plus he had a tough job with Harding passing. Vote Down: Woodrow Wilson - watching KKK movies in the White House, using the KKK to hunt down German citizens, the income tax, getting us into WW1, League of Nations, basing a loan to Russia dependent on staying in the war thus giving The Bolsheviks an opening to take control which led to Stalin and millions of deaths.
