Sorry if this is a bit off topic, but I get irritated when people use Grant as a counterpoint example of a poor president.
Grant was much more than a War Hero. He had as much if not more personal integrity, morals and ethics than any other president we have ever had. He was the single biggest fighter and supporter of Civil Rights for all to include modern day presidents such as LBJ. He fought some of the toughest battles that our nation has ever faced, and refused to back down one inch.
One day Grant will get the full recognition he deserves.
Yeah, and we can finally find out who's buried in his tomb.
