Johnson, Hayes, and McKinley are probably Bush's role models.

1. Rutherford B. Hayes was the only one of the bunch... |
|
...to have a Great Plains song written about him.
The grandfather of Woody Hayes Saw the future in a sudden gaze. He couldn't believe they lost the Michigan game. I'm Rutherford B. Hayes! Rutherford B. Hayes.

2. Oh, yes. And Arthur & Johnson were the only two... |
|
...who were NOT from Ohio!
And Johnson was a Democrat.

3. You all should read about Tilden vs. Hayes |
|
Shades of 2000. Or should I say 2000 had shades of Tilden vs. Hayes.

4. President Grant, a great patriot. |
|
He understood that reconstruction was a necessity. Shame on those who ended it prematurely. We could have has a civil rights revolution 75 years sooner than we did.

6. Kind of odd to see......... |
|
.......no pre-Civil War presidents listed in this poll. I don't care for any of those choices. I vote for James Monroe.
