#1 2005 ratings of presidents here

Carter is 34 out of 40; W is 19, just above Slick Willie, at 22.

#2 I saw that yesterday, Bobby. Interesting bit, from further in the original BotW:

To be sure, one has to take Bush's ranking here with a grain of salt. Bush came out "average," but that's because he was so highly rated by Republican-leaning scholars (who put him 6th from the top) and so poorly rated by Democratic-leaning ones (who put him 35th, or 6th from the bottom).

It will be interesting to see whether History finally records the Dem-leaning as correct, or the
Repub-leaning.

#3 I think he should run for the "both" result.

He would be the ultimate embarrassment for the dhemocratics.

#4 Don't know much about James Buchanan, but I suspect he was a better president than Jimmuh.
