I don't think it was MLK, even with all his achievements in civil rights. I say Teddy Roosevelt. Why? .org/image/d11u3t7kh/]  [/url] You can't just say no to that face. |

Plus nobody threatens to burn down an entire city if a school changes names from Roosevelt to someone else. That... I like much better to support Teddy over MLK jr. Too many Februarys spent in my whole life wasted on poorly done imitations of a national hero whose image has become twisted with poltics nowdays. That's sad.  |

My favorite American is probably Stonewall Jackson. Yes he was a confederate, and no I don't think he is the best, but I do admire his battle prowess.

Robert Lee is definitely one of the best in that category. He got plenty of class and kept to his morals steadfastly. (Wishes he made his choice to stick with the American Union side instead of the Confederates by his home state VA, though) |

(Wishes he made his choice to stick with the American Union side instead of the Confederates by his home state VA, though) Lee was a genius, but there are a few Union generals who were better than he was. Ulysses S. Grant-His tactic=Starve out the enemy, use all available resources, send in waves of men to take out the enemy. This was far less strategic than Lee or Jackson, but it was kind of a form of modern war. In this new age, war was going to be brutal, no longer glorious, and a general who used these tactics in the 1860's was revolutionary. Granted, his nickname because the Butcher... William T. Sherman-Tactic=Total War, destroy the enemy's will to fight. Also a modern idea of deliberately attacking civilian targets and aiming to destroy the will of an enemy to keep fighting. By destroying Georgian railways and weapon depots, he severely weakened the South in 1864. |

i thought mlk was a president. just an ignorant foreigner... Well... if he wasn't shot, he might have become a president of NCAAP or something (a black president would be still extremely unlikely in the 60s or even 70s). I don't think he would have ran for president. He was a preacher who decided to make a stand somewhere, and succeed indeed. Washington DC poltics wasn't a good fit for his preferences. It's likely he would have gone back home to continue lead his life there. |

General William T. Sherman would probably pick FDR. I do agree that he was a good president but the internment camps for Japanese were a bit too much
