In contrast to our 16th President, according to our current President: “You can fool some of the people all the time, and those are the ones you want to concentrate on.”
This is a fine policy if, that is, there are enough people that you can fool all of the time. I don’t know what that number is. Fortunately, PollingReport.com has the answer:
A Quinnipiac University Poll asked registered voters nationwide, “Thinking about the United States presidents we have had since World War II which one would you consider the best president?”
28% - Ronald Reagan
25% - Bill Clinton
18% - John Kennedy
7% - Harry Truman
5% - Jimmy Carter
5% - Dwight Eisenhower
3% - George W. Bush
2% - George H. W. Bush
1% - Gerald Ford
1% - Lyndon Johnson
1% - Richard Nixon
4% - No opinion
I would have thought it was higher, but there you have it, 3% of America is fooled all the time.
See the answer to the next logical question…
