Who has been the best conservative president?

[Dissent]

I am wanting to read a book on the best conservative president we have had. Some say Coolidge some say Hoover...who is it? Also if you could recommend a book on that person and why he was the best president.

[farreri]

Is there such a thing? That's like asking who was the best liberal president?

[angelatc]

Coolidge

[oyarde]

Coolidge and Cleveland , first time , probably blew the least of others money . Ike was the last time more came in than went out .

[jbauer]

I'd say George W. Bush. No expansion of Medicare, No expansion of wars, No expansion of debt, Complete respect for the constituion. Heck the numbers don't lie. He was a Republican and Republicans are conservatives right?

Lmao....

Honest Abe. Most conservative president. He is the one that brought the party from 3rd tier status to #1 in American politics today.
Of course! And he kills vampires!

Harding, then Coolidge.

There was a little Earl,
Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of his forehead

When he was good,
He was very good,
But when he was bad he was horrid.

Hoover was a domestic interventionist, FDR-lite if you will.

I second (third? fourth?) Coolidge and Cleveland.

Can anyone recommend some books on these presidents they are suggesting?

Hoover? Who says Hoover?

NOT Hoover. Maybe you're thinking Harding. Harding and Coolidge are probably the last most true conservatives we had, and even they didn't work to end the Fed or IRS. The 1924 election is real interesting since both the Democratic candidate and the Republican candidate were conservatives.

[ronpaulfollower999]

What about Andrew Jackson?

Indian removal and turned on states rights. He did kill the Bank, which is a plus, but I think the negatives out weigh the positive.

[enoch150]

Andrew Jackson and Grover Cleveland were Democrats. Democrats can't be conservatives. It's like, the law, or something.

Lincoln was the best, and probably the only thing close to a real president the GOP had, and probably ever will have. The republican party is just a laughable retarded grouping of people who, in large part, rejects the founder of the party. I mean thats like saying you're a Christian but hate Jesus...even at face value you see something is off. If anything, conservatives of today are actually for Free Trade Liberalism. The Adam Smith bullshit, Hayek, all of it. The London School of Economics nonsesnse. You are the liberals, the real liberals, and the real problem. No nation is soveriegn if it can't control it's own money. I don't care if the currency is paper, digital, gold, goats, or grass. It doesn't matter, they will collapse if their currency is allowed to float and be turned into a speculative masturbation we call the FOREX today.

"Coolidge: An American Enigma"

[dillo]

Washington, Jackson or Harding

[Keith and stuff]

I agree with saying Thomas Jefferson as the answer. Overall, he was one of the least bad of the baddies.
