<p>

But his policies were effective; if he weren’t such a strong president he wouldn’t have been such a great one either.

Explain. Are you implying that only presidents who abuse their powers are great?</p>

<p>

Lincoln was certainly a humanitarian and a patriot, but that doesn’t make him a good president, and it doesn’t make his actions justifiable.

Thank you, a voice of reason.</p>

<p>

No, the fact that he ended the Civil War makes him a good President.

Yes, he ended the war, but at what cost? The war was the bloodiest war in United States history with over 1 million casualties. Maybe if he didn’t chose so many horrendous generals (Burnside, Hooker) the war could have ended sooner.</p>

<p>

The fact that he saved the damn country from collapsing makes him a good President

Fair enough, he certainly is infinitely superior to Buchanan.</p>

<p>

And even if it wasn’t, who gives a damn?

He was the first president to suspend the writ. He established this precedent that would, from that point on, be used throughout U.S. history. Also, completely ignoring the Supreme Court is certainly worth a damn.</p>

<p>

His accomplishments far outweigh the minor error.

No, however he definitely is not as bad as some other presidents, which is why I have yet to deduct points.</p>

<p>I think chaosdog forgot to change the scores. Disregard the extra +1 Johnson -1 Clinton if I’m wrong.</p>

<p>-2 Clinton</p>

<p>

The war was the bloodiest war in United States history with over 1 million casualties.

</p>

<p>That’s only true if you count Confederate casualties. WW2 had more casualties for actual US troops.</p>
