What grade would you give Franklin Roosevelt as president?

[SemiCharmedQuark]

It may seem like a silly question, but I'm genuinely curious. He's well respected here. He's ranked as one of the top presidents consistently. What grade would you give his *entire* presidency?

1. A. If they graded on a curve, the second place president gets a "C"

[SemiCharmedQuark]

2. I guess I mean, grade as though it were a class.

90% good would be A
80% would be B
70% would be C
etc. etc. etc.

I want to establish a baseline for what a good president is.

3. Well he did intern the Japanese...

Soooo.. if I want to be a True Progressive^TM... how should I vote? Give him a D?

Help me out here, Progressives...

4. For crying out loud! He's only served four terms! Give him some time! :-) NT

5. A- on the New Deal

and F on Japanese-American internment.

[Bicoastal]

6. Yeah, but what has he done for us LATELY? n/t

7. I still get my social security check each month.

8. FDR gets an "A", second only to Lincoln all time.

In my estimation.

[WeDidIt]

9. Definitely a "B"

HE'd get an "A" had he never interred Japanese-American citizens in concentration camps.

10. A or A-plus.
