But also to be helpful because I am all to aware of the giant blindspots people can have on this
Bush Jr to the right of Reagan
Bush: Medicare Part D , No Child Left Behind ,TARP
If your reasoning is the conduct of the war on terror, You would have to conclude Obama is to the right of Reagan.
Oh BTW out of curiosity, If you were one of those people that reflexively shouted "Worst President Ever" how do you react to Obama's name at this point ? Seeing as he has managed to expand on every failure of the Bush administration,do more harm to the economy, and our foreign affairs status ?
Nixon to the right of Eike ?
Lets see Nixon took us off the gold standard, tried to implement wage and price controls, created the EPA.
Eisenhower, Balanced budget twice Kept government growth small.
So your trend is Eisenhower right of Nixon, Reagan is to the right of Nixon, and both Bushes
So I'll say to you what I said to the other poster. You should have a chat with whoever is doing your thinking for you.
