Barack Obama moved his way up into the top 10 of C-SPAN’s presidential leadership survey for the first time this year, while Donald Trump clocked in at 41st on the list, months after the end of his term in office.C-SPAN released the rankings from its Historians Survey of Presidential Leadership, which is taken after each presidential transition, on Wednesday. This survey marks Trump's first appearance on the list, on which the one-term president placed higher than only three other presidents: Franklin Pierce, Andrew Johnson and the perpetually last-ranked James Buchanan.

I think they had Steve Scully run this survey.

Saw this the other day. When I saw that Sparklefarts was in the top 10, I knew this was a survey done among the communist woketards of our society.
I spit upon this survey, and upon C-SPAN, which was once studiously neutral but went hard left a long time ago.

The best economy several generations have seen. Lowest unemployment for all minorities. Rebuild the armed forces. Beginning of peace in the middle-east. Secure southern border. Restore balance of trade. Produce COVID vaccine in record time. On and on. His deliberately low ranking is indicative of a lot of things that wrong today. Over 80 million citizens that legally voted for him - and will gladly do so again know differently.

Experts. Yes. The more we learn about experts, the less expert they seem. Ask some ordinary Americans.

Just another liberal joke. Just as when they handed Obama the Nobel Peace Price for doing nothing.

C-Span survey. Might as well have said it was a DNC survey.

I agree. Who did they ask? What were their party affiliations?

When I saw that JFK was ranked at #8, when the only noteworthy thing that he accomplished was intercepting the flight of a couple of bullets, I knew that the survey was a farce. The rankings were based on the opinions of "historians", who as a group are not noted for any conservative leanings.

C-SPAN is the childish and less intelligent version of CNN, which is hopelessly biased and always wrong.

Go to the C-span site and you will see that the voters are a bunch of college profs and historians. Total bull schiff

This survey is wrong. Obama should be ranked 5th.
Washington, Lincoln, Reagan and Trump are tied for 1st.
14 presidents are tied for 2nd.
25 presidents are tied for 3rd.
Carter is 4th. Obama is 5th. 46 * is 6th.

Any Historian with integrity would refuse to answer when asked to include recent presidents.
Historians need distance/time from events to properly evaluate them.
Harry Truman was despised as President, as was Lincoln. It took decades to properly evaluate them Now look at them and their ranking.

Obama in top 10? Really? Did they forget the debacle in Libya? Or numerous attacks in the US by Muslim terrorists or wannabe terrorists? Or the rise of ISIS and gruesome beheadings and other murders after an ill-time pullout from Iraq? Or nearly 8 years of a stagnant economy, with high unemployment and volatile markets? Or the red line everyone crossed in Syria? Or the scandal over his Secretary of State's emails? Or our President bowing to kings and dictators? Or his apology tour? Obama's presidency was a disaster.

One must certainly ask what were the criteria, who participated, what were the questions and how were they phrased. 41st place is a joke and certainly not reflective of the Trump presidency.

They ranked JFK above Ronald Reagan. That tells you all you need to know about the legitimacy of the poll.

"Barack Obama moved his way up into the top 10 of C-SPAN’s presidential leadership survey for the first time this year,"
Stopped reading after the first line.
Oh and it is Politico.
