Calvin Coolage Quote HistoryQuoted:
Calvin Coolage aka Coolidge Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not: nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers. It may not be difficult to store up in the mind a vast quantity of facts within a comparatively short time, but the ability to form judgments requires the severe discipline of hard work and the tempering heat of experience and maturity.

Nixon's foreign policy was first-rate, but his domestic policy sucked balls. TR was a great military hero, but a shitty political figure. Way too populist and big-government. |

I would bring back Reagan.
He understood the need for strong "don't fuck with us" foreign policy and for a strong military. He also believed America was fundamentally good and preached it every chance he had, and he believed our enemy, Communism, was fundamentally evil, and he preached that openly and consistently. None of this "it means well, it just has been hijacked by fundamentalists." Yes, he cut and ran from Lebanon after the Marine Barracks was bombed, and people like to say the lesson the Muzzies learned from that was the US cannot stand the sight of dead US servicemembers. But he also had the balls to stand at the edge of East Berlin and say to the entire world "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!" and the balls to call the USSR "an evil empire" instead of pussyfooting around with arrogant shit like "the Junior Varsity team." |

reagan.
no he wasnt perfect and no i didn't agree with all his decisions but he is the reason i got involved in politics. he inspired the nation and you never questioned whose side he was on. he did what he could. the irony is that most modern repub senators and congressmen who throw his name around wouldnt know what true reagan conservatism was if it bit them in the ass. G.H.W. was a lying shithead (his latest news today furthers that belief) and JR was a fucking idiot. and im not even gonna comment on clinton or obama because there are no good democrat presidents in the modern era. |

Reagan, before that JFK I liked W, but Patriot Act. W was a disaster in so many ways... Now WMD in Iraq, fighting daddy's war that went unfinished. Putting idiots in charge like "Brownie". Ben Bernanke will go down as one of his worst appointments. And lest we forget... he supported extending the AWB. JFK... Bay of Pigs ring a bell? "Whiz Kids" that got soldiers killed in Nam? Getting us into Nam with no objective? Reagan was great in his own right, but, he did try an end run around congress with Iran-Contra arms sales. That is nothing to be proud of. |

Not who was your favorite or the best president, but who was the last great one? Who would you reincarnate if you could? How far back from today's date would you have to go? Seems like Reagan is held up by conservatives, but a lot of Arfcom resents him for the '86 gun ban. IDK, I wasn't alive then. Reagan. I hate the Hughes Amendment, but we got a lot w/ that poison pill. I can't blame Reagan for signing it. |
