Eisenhower. Gave us the Interstate after traveling cross country in a convoy in 1919 and then going to Europe and seeing the Autobahn. Dude knew a good idea when he saw one.
I'm on the fence about Lincoln, due to his (lack of) involvement in the war of 1862 and his involvement in the 38+2. It's not something I'm super-educated on though, so I am reserving judgement until I have the time to actually study the events. He's actually pretty despised in these parts because of it even though he freed the slaves.
Anyway, I voted for Kennedy. I'm not the most educated on his presidency either, but from what I know he seemed to be pro-freedom, anti-segregation, and wanted to lower tax rates (although what politician hasn't "wanted" that). Washington is #2. I'd say Jefferson is #3, but I'm also on the fence about him.
Either John Adams or John Q Adams, I've grown up in their hometown and I'm right down the street from their house now, I don't think I really have a choice.

Interesting. Lincoln is far and away my favorite. It's actually kind of surprising to me to hear he is that despised in Minnesota.

Second choice would be George Doubya Jr....Once again for the entertainment value.
Maybe Jackson since he's on the twenty dollar bill? The $20 is my fave bill.
Ooooo! Idea for a new poll later on?
Also, just to clarify, I'm talking about the real Lincoln. Not the vampire hunter...........
Andrew Jackson, what a man. He was a tough son of a bitch, a decorated general who survived a gunshot from a duel, and an assassination attempt.
He had such a big heart...
"and ten dollars extra, for every hundred lashes any person will give him, to the amount of three hundred."
I grew up in Springfield, IL, so Lincoln is my favorite president. Although, there is a good chance he would be my favorite regardless.

lol, that's some good respect right there. I almost forgot about that movie. hahaha
Don't worry, I actually know the difference between a real historical figure and fiction.

Nixon!
Dude did get relations open with China.
The AVS was made in China.
Thanks, Nixon!
I think FDR deserves a vote as of now, so I voted for him.
Henry Harrison
Thats William Henry Harrison to you sir.

Fought off central banks and balanced the budget. Even blood let every night. Tough as they come.

Favorite? Meh. I've only seen a few in action and none have impressed me that much.

Buchanan. Hands down.
I'm very curious as to why that is. I think he is the worst president in US history.
