Presidents of the United States of America - Comparisons

Abraham Lincoln grew up in poor circimstances, and made it to D.C. where slave states decided to rebel. He was what our nation needed for freedom. It was an awful, bloody, Civil War. But we advanced.

    Donald Trump grew up wealthy, and successful. The American people chose him twice. Wanting success and prosperity. Does he deliver to most Americans what we desire? So some think he is too impulsive or Anti-foreigner. Maybe.

    

    Biden tried to carry over Obama initiatives of fairness and opportunity. Bush struck out for fundamental values.

    Clinton, the other Bush, Reagan. Carter and Ford, then back to Nixon, Johnson, Kennedy, Eisenhower. Truman and Roosevelt, back to Hoover and into the 1920s. Coolidge, Harding, who else one hundred plus years ago?

    We, the citizens, the historians, the scholars, the eonomists, the analysts. We look at them now and in the past to assess their leadership, or cowardice, or courage. Their mistakes and their triumphs. Their skills or their bumblings.

    Life and death decisions, morally correct or wrong choices and stumbles. They have many people advising them, including the U.S. people.

    We the people.

    May we be good and triumph.
