The current generation of Americans are ignorant of most past and present presidents. In that regard, you are more 'educated' about American history than most students attending school in the USA today. c.i.

C.I.,
...Have you ever seen a segment on the Jay Leno, entitled "Jaywalking"? He asks simple civics type questions, we used to have to know to get out of the 8th grade. Only, he asks young adults, including college students. I laugh, but I want to cry. This is our future?

Ford
I chose other. If you can get it together to put someone on a list, they can't be that forgettable.
For some reason I always forget Ford. But hey, look at that, I just remembered him. :wink:

To be perfectly honest, there would be several unlisted above for whom I would have wished greater obscurity.

Booman, I'm afraid I'm not a fan of Jay Leno as a regular diet. I think his monologues can be funny, but I'm usually tuned into Cheers at that time in the evening. c.i.

I know where you're coming from. I like to catch him on mondays for the headlines and monologue. Then I randomly catch the first half when I have seen sitcoms that are opposite.

I wish the current one was, sigh, the one I know best was Gerald Ford, but he wasn't on the list. I chose Milliard Fillmore, they only named a duck and an auditorium after him!

how could you?
I'll have you know that Rutherford B. Hayes; Ruth as we call him in our family, was my great-great-grand-uncle. He was, without a doubt, the greatest US President of them all. Thomas Jefferson could have learned a thing or two from him.

Sam Other. He and John Undecided often get 3-5 percent of the vote in public opinion polls.
