Best: Washington (prevented the U.S. from establishing a de facto monarchy through the chief executive); Reagan (best of the 20th century; won the cold war and was the first president since FDR who fought the growth of the welfare state)
Worst: Lincoln (plunged America into civil war and caused the deaths of 600,000 Americans (assuming you agree the war was unjust))

The DemocRAT Insurrection was provoked entirely by the RATS. Lincoln had nothing to do with it merely forced by these traitors to live up to his oath to preserve and protect the Constitution and Union.

He would not have even been elected had the Slaver RATS been smart enough to unite around one RAT candidate rather than run three. What idiots. Traitorous idiots.

Obviously Lincoln was one of the two greatest presidents the United States of America ever had. Facing down the RATs of his day (North and South) was one of the greatest achievements history records. Defeat of the DemocRAT Insurrection, despite the RAT treason at his back, was absolutely necessary for the survival of the USA and the idea of freedom.

Unfortunately he wasn't around to totally destroy the RAT political power in the South after the Insurrection. By doing so he would have saved the region from another century of RAT terror and tyranny.
