My twentieth book, which will be out this August from Bombardier Books, is something completely different. It’s called Rating America’s Presidents: An America-First Look at Who Is Best, Who Is Overrated, and Who Was An Absolute Disaster. It is just what the title says, an evaluation and rating of the records of each President, but from an America-first standpoint, rather than from the perspective of the socialist internationalist historians who usually produce such records.
When you grade the U.S. Presidents on the basis of who was best for America, these emerge as the ten best (in chronological order):
George Washington
Andrew Jackson
John Tyler
Abraham Lincoln
Ulysses S. Grant
Chester A. Arthur
Warren G. Harding
Calvin Coolidge
Ronald Reagan
Donald Trump
And here are the ten who were worst for America, again in chronological order:
Franklin Pierce
James Buchanan
Woodrow Wilson
Herbert Hoover
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Lyndon B. Johnson
Jimmy Carter
Bill Clinton
George W. Bush
Barack Obama
You’ll notice some oddities here — some people considered the best Presidents are ranked among the worst, and vice versa. Establishment historians will be shaking their heads and saying “No, that’s all wrong.” That’s the whole point of the book. It’s an attempt to take history back from the anti-American Left, and to reset our evaluation of our own nation’s history, on the basis of the principle upon which it should have always been based: were they good for America?
