Grant was the best human being to be president

FDR was the most influential, in a positive sense

Carter did the least amount of heinous shit

What about Teddy Roosevelt? He started what would evetyallt become the FDA, regulated business far more than any who cane before him, and was a trust-buster. Not to mention his conservation policy or his negotiating skills in the Russo-Japanese war. The Square Deal was great and I love conservation, but his outspoken imperialism isn't amazing, but I'd still rank him pretty highly.
