FIRST, I AM DOING WHAT ANY SUCH LIST COMPILER SHOULD DO IF THEY ARE TRYING TO BE AS OBJECTIVE AS POSSIBLE: I am omitting the most recent presidents because of the way emotion (and hysteria in some cases) can color perceptions of them. Presidential rankings lists which go all the way up to the present year are used simply as partisan political propaganda, not as true assessments.
ABRAHAM LINCOLN
FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT
GEORGE WASHINGTON
THEODORE ROOSEVELT
DWIGHT EISENHOWER
HARRY TRUMAN
JOHN ADAMS
GROVER CLEVELAND
JOHN QUINCY ADAMS
JAMES MADISON
CLINTON/ REAGAN (tie)
JAMES K. POLK
JAMES MONROE
CALVIN COOLIDGE
WOODROW WILSON
WILLIAM MCKINLEY
LYNDON JOHNSON
ANDREW JACKSON
FRANKLIN PIERCE
ANDREW JOHNSON
BENJAMIN HARRISON
WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT
RUTHERFORD B. HAYES
THOMAS JEFFERSON
GEORGE H.W. BUSH
RICHARD NIXON
HERBERT HOOVER
ULYSSES S. GRANT
MARTIN VAN BUREN
JIMMY CARTER
JOHN TYLER
JAMES BUCHANAN
THE FOLLOWING PRESIDENTS DID NOT EVEN FILL ONE COMPLETE TERM AND I CONSIDER THAT TOO SHORT WHEN MEASURED AGAINST OTHER PRESIDENTS. HERE THEY ARE, RANKED ONLY AGAINST EACH OTHER.
JOHN F. KENNEDY
ZACHARY TAYLOR
CHESTER A. ARTHUR
GERALD FORD
JAMES GARFIELD
MILLARD FILMORE
WARREN G. HARDING
WILLIAM HENRY HARRISON
These lists are fun conversationally, but none of them – including mine – have any importance in the real world.

Logged, thank you sir!
ETS Thought, A Peaceful Sabbath, Looking To The Lord’s Day is a post that you liked; I thank you.
You’re very welcome!
Reading your list made me realize that I too should make such a list. As we grow older, we remember the names of our presidents and peime ministers but forget the order. Thank you.
Thank you very much! Yes, such lists can give you perspective.
Great, well done Edward. My regards to you and them.
Thanks so much! I appreciate it.
