How to measure the "best" and "worst" of Presidents?
The "history will vindicate" angle is a loose logic to use because anything can happen - including good or bad luck - that can change how a leader is viewed.
I read somewhere (I forget where) that, in hindsight, Coolidge probably had the best approach in dealing with the looming economic meltdown that led to the New Deal under FDR.
