I like that list. And I'm happily surprised to see Grant and Bush on it. They all were rich in decency. Oh, to have any one of them, instead of what we've got now.
I loved this walk down memory lane and the list of past Presidents and their courage in leadership, action and thought. I never met a President, but I did encounter two men that Ike sent out to purchase land for the Interstate Highway system. I set on the floor listening to the deal they were making with my mom. Dare I say that was close to a life saver for us. I also liked George H. W. Bush's "thousand points of light" speech. It was shameful the flack he got for that speech. Although it was late in coming, I now have a deeper heartfelt respect for President Jimmy Carter. His humanity had no limit.
My only comment: Truman merited inclusion as well. But I too am glad that Grant and HW made the list. The world would have been much better had HW beaten Clinton - and I say that as a lifelong Democrat. Character matters in our leaders and HW had it.
