"Objectively" is such a fun way to describe what will always be a divisive position of power. Was any one president considered objectively good?
Well, Al Gore was voted president, and he didn't make any objectionable decisions while George Bush was living in his house and working in his office.
I do wonder what the world would look like if Al Gore had been president.
George S. Washington
Grant's administration was deeply imperfect - corruption ran deep - but he eradicated the first KKK. I feel like that's an objective good, and anyone who disagrees isn't worth listening to.
Does doing one good thing translate to being "an objectively good president" though? Broken clock and all that.
A president who performed an objective good, if you like
FDR because one can be wrong about objective things
