RE: Show us your Lincoln collectables!
I think so. And I think that rankings change over time. When Harry Truman left the White House, he was heartily disliked by a number of people and his presidency was considered by some to be a failure, yet today many look at him differently. Same is true of Gerald Ford. I can remember when he pardoned Nixon and how that basically cost him the 1976 election. Now, many say doing so was the best thing that could have happened to the country. Still not real sure about that, but I can understand why some would say that.
