Bush scored lowest in international relations, where he was ranked 41st, and in economic management, where he was ranked 40th. His highest ranking, 24th, was in the category of pursuing equal justice for all. He was ranked 25th in crisis leadership and vision and agenda setting."

Anyone else think even that is a little high? Well I knew it was down the end there somewhere I thought maybe he would be 41st. Still, he ranked the lowest of all presidents as far as foreign relations are concerned, no surprises there. Lincoln holds the number 1 spot, with Clinton jumping to number 15 from 21 in the last 8 years. I guess comparison makes the heart fonder!
24th in "pursuing equal justice" and 25th in "crisis leadership" speaks volumes about his true leadership abilities, which for the most part many, you included, cannot see the fact he made the right decisions when they needed to be made. This poll pretty much solidifies what I knew, and told you earlier, that in due time his true abilities would come to the forefront! And to think, this only 20 odd days since he left office, imagine how high he will climb in four years!

Good post!
