To honestly look at a president's legacy you need to wait 10-20 years and see what people remember. Some Examples:

JFK: Facing down the Soviets in the Cuban Missile Crisis and the challenge to go to the moon. Made America popular again.
<font color="white"> . </font>
Nixon: A crook. Instigated wage and price controls!
<font color="white"> . </font>
Ford: Too short to remember anything important. Bumped head a lot on airplane doors.
<font color="white"> . </font>
Carter: He sat on his ass while Americans were held hostage for over a year. American military tried to rescue hostages but failed miserably.
<font color="white"> . </font>
Reagan: The hostages were released before his oath into office was complete. Didn't take any crap from the soviets and demanded to tear down the Berlin wall; which happened shortly after. It is highly debatable whether or not the Russkies tore down the wall because the Gipper asked 'em to. Nice pomade, though.

Bush41, Clinton, and Bush43 are yet to be detemined... But Clinton economy boomed - those numbers are already in.
