Well to be honest, he is my favorite for a few reasons. He is very devoit in his faith, as am I, and used that in every question he was faced with in his presidency. I believe America was very lucky to have a president like him in office during 9/11 and all of the terrorist attacks that america faced, he is hard nosed and well versed in war (His father was president during part of the gulf war/ desert storm.) Many a presidents would not have had the courage to react as he did, and immeadietly go to war, with a country and organization (al Qieda) because they would be worried about there image, and re-election. He truely loves his country and his emotions are raw. I love a president who wears his heart on his sleeve.
Also I am a republican, I do admire, FDR Greatly as well.
