LOL Alright, John Browning. |

|
I would say it is a toss up between Teddy Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan
|
|
Teddy R.
"Chesty" "Blood n Guts" Eugene Stoner John Moses Browning I can't pick one of these! |

Washington could have been President for life if not King. He believed in what he fought for and what his Soldiers died for. He set the standard for all other Presidents and all policticians for that matter. Jefferson? HA! Jefferson wasn't fit to sit at the same table with Washington. Jefferson was a man of words. A lawyer. A diplomat. A war starter. Washington was a man of actions. A leader. A Soldier. A war fighter.
If he's not the greatest American ever, he is at least the best man in the right time at the right place. |

Not sure about "greatest" but Teddy Roosevelt is among my favorites.

personally i think its a toss up between:
gary busey katie couric alfred p neuman the old chinese man from "gremlins" snake eyes whoever invented "hot pockets" furby |
|
I can't pick just one. It's impossible. Can't be done. Man I really didn't want to be "that guy" but in this case it is justified.
The Greatest American Ever............The American Soldier from the start to now. |

You will need to answer for this some day!!! |

|
Why Patrick Henry... cause he was a good speaker? I can think of several hundred that would rank higher, Ben Franklin for starters.

George Washington in a walk.
One book had a great quote from a contemporary of Washington: "Others can always be counted on to say the right thing, at the right moment. George Washington can always be counted on to DO the right thing". It was a time during which men took great care about their honor and integrity, often being stupidly touchy about it. Washington was widely known for being fanatically concerned about his honor and integrity, but NEVER stupidly. He ate a lot of shit sandwiches for the good of this country, and he KNEW full well he was eating them and why, and did so willingly. It's unfortunate, that today most schools, if they teach Washington at all, teach him as just some dead white guy who owned slaves andohbythewaywasthefatherofthecountry, now on to six chapters of Martin Luther King and why Watergate was the crime of the millennium and Bush is the New Hitler. |

There was a motorcycle cop in a town that I worked in that would come into the store every once in a while and that is what his name badge said......... |

George Washington. Read up on the other founding fathers; Ben Franklin, Alex Hamilton, John Adams, Tom Jefferson, Jim Madison,… and you'll learn they all agreed that George Washington unquestionably be their superior.

That's what I thought of as soon as I read the title before I clicked on the thread! |

Every man and woman that puts on a uniform and fights for your freedoms or protects you from things that go bump in the night.

My thoughts. |

The average American tax payer who isn't in debt, is happily married and loves his wife, provides for his children, supports his military and has a good set of morals would get my vote.

No single person]
I took a lot of Americans to make this country great and each deserves some of the credit.It will take many more great Americans to keep this country great. Something we should all think about regularly. |

Who would have read Players. |
|
|
Probably one of the most despicable people this country ever produced. A true sack of human shit. |
|
|
Get both. |

I can't believe Sean Hannity made the list of greatest Americans. I'm a die hard conservative but that guy is like a yipping chiuaua. Sometimes he just goes too far to prove a minor point and ends up making a ass of himself.
