If he's going to criticize Lincoln for stomping out secession, he shouldn't treat Andrew Jackson with such kindness. Jackson threatened to hang the leaders of South Carolina when they threatened to secede.

@TheAmericanAnarchist Are you trying to say Jefferson was a nationalist and a protectionist? I hope you mean liberal as in classical liberalism...
I don't like these labels of conservative and liberal they have become too confused in recent years, try statist vs anti-statist, or collectivist vs individualist. I'm interested in Jefferson as he seems to be the best of the founding fathers so I would like to hear your critique of him. Washington is second in my eyes, cause the prohibition thing...

TheAmericanAnarchist, I would assume John Adams the second president was worse.

His voice and appearance remind me of Michael Crichton. I would love to hear him drop knowledge in person.

I'm guessing his list would probably consist of: Lincoln, FDR, Adams, T. Roosevelt, GW Bush, Wilson, LBJ, Nixon, Truman, McKinley, etc.

Very good. I would like his complete list of the very worst US presidents.
