RE: Your top 10 Presidents.
Sorry, but I have to write this.
I realise that FDR is widely venerated in both the U.S. and indeed the world. I see from the various lists of Great Presidents of the USA on the internet that FDR is rated at the high end (even highest) category of International Relations.

But ... (I have to say this) ... and I know that FDR was very ill during WW2 especially at the end ... I believe that his influence on the way that Europe was liberated (from the Nazis) during WW2 was most unfortunate.
I write 'from the Nazis' because its clear that much of that continent later came under the crushing boots of Stalinism for decades.
FDR was, I think, bamboozled by Stalin and was probably too quick to think the best of that creature.
