    The first US president, George Washington, was in office from April 30, 1789 to March 4, 1797. I think the best US president was Thomas Jefferson.

    Probably Lincoln. Followed by FDR and Washington.

    Lincoln getting us through the Civil War, FDR through the Great Depression, and Washington for his foundation.

    The best was our first, President George Washington. He formed that raw clay even during war to make us a nation, that cannot be beaten. Nowadays, it's all drama news, twitter wars and political flashback at the people. I see Lincoln's quote coming true within possibly our lifetimes.

    Abe Lincoln and Ronnie Raygun for sure.

    George Washington. He fought for our independence and then took the helm of the country.
