THE U.S. PRESIDENTS
What makes a President great? Or a failure? The verdict of history provides some answers
By ARTHUR M. SCHLESINGER
Those who believe that in a democracy people generally get the kind of government they deserve will be heartened by the results of an informal presidential rating poll which I conducted not long ago among my colleagues in American history and government (p. 65). Only two of our past Presidents were labeled "failures"; four were judged "near great"; and six received the accolade "great."
There was a large measure of agreement among the "experts" within the important categories of great, near great and failures. The six greats—Lincoln, Washington, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Wilson, Jefferson and Jackson, in that order—had no close runners-up, though Lincoln was the only one to get all 55 votes for the top rank.
Among the four near great—Theodore Roosevelt, Grover Cleveland, John Adams and James K. Polk—the selection of Polk will no doubt surprise most readers. Polk's position in American history has been unjustly neglected. His record in the White House was an exceptional one. A coldly practical and methodical man, Polk set himself certain precise objectives to be achieved while he was President, and achieve them he did during his single term of office from 1845–49. He lowered the tariff, re-established the independent treasury system for public funds and completed the westward expansion of the country. To get Oregon and Washington he risked the threat of war with Great Britain. And he did go to war with Mexico to acquire California and most of the territory of the present states of our Southwest.
The failure rating went to two postwar Presidents, Grant and Harding. Theirs were the only administrations in American history which can be described as riddled with corruption. As President they were both far beyond their depth. Grant allowed himself to become the dupe of crafty swindlers, speculators and plain grafters who rocked the country with schemes involving watered railroad stock, defrauding the government of taxes due on whisky, selling Indian trading-post concessions and raising congressional salaries (while doubling the President's). Grant indulged freely in nepotism, appointing a number of his relatives to various government posts, but he was otherwise personally untouched by the profiteering which went on around him. The greatest scandal of his administration followed the famous attempt by Gould and Fisk, with the aid of Grant's brother-in-law, to corner the gold supplies of the country, an attempt which almost came off and resulted in the Black Friday panic of 1869.
