It's Official:Reagan Is The Greatest American EVER!

[mitsuki lover]

Discovery Channel over the past several months did a poll to see who the
greatest American of all time was on Sunday they came out with the
Final Five:
George Washington
Abraham Lincoln
Martin Luther King,Jr.
Benjamin Franklin
Ronald Reagan
In the final voting Reagan barely beat out Lincoln for the #1 spot.
The other three went:
3.Martin Luther King,Jr.
4.George Washington
5.Benjamin Franklin
While it was fun and interesting to watch I nevertheless disagree with
the final results.Even though I voted for Reagan twice and agree he
was definitely a great President and American,I don't think he was
really THE Greatest American of all time.Instead that should of by
rights gone to George Washington.
IMHO the final five should have looked like this:
1.George Washington
2.Abraham Lincoln
3.Thomas Jefferson(How HE missed being in the final five I don't understand)
4.John Adams
5.Benjamin Franklin
I believe Reagan made it mainly because of sentiment still surrounding his
death.
Personally I think a more likely place for him would be around either #15
or #25.
Then again this was supposed to be part entertainment as well.

Actually, In my opinion, Reagen was one of the greatest Presidents we have ever had...he did a lot for our country...and I believe he deserved this honor..^o^;

I agree with CR. Reagan was a great choice.

Yes he was one of our best Presidents, but I have to agree the greatest American ever is stretching it a little. Oh well at least Oprah didn't get anywhere close.

[ChristianKitsune]

HAHA...oprah...*gag* Whoever creates a company called, "Harpo.. is indeed a nutcase and a half..HAHA..

[Steeltemplar]

I can't stand Oprah.

Did anyone else hear about that big issue she made about that high-end store not letting her in 15 minutes after they were closed? What? She thinks she's better than the rest of us? The store wouldn't have let me in either.
