Hey 4A! Recently, historians have released a list of the best and worst of the United States Presidents. Historians based their decisions on what qualities each president possessed, such as leadership, public persuasion, relations with Congress, and their belief systems. Based on the clues below, see if you can guess the presidents that finished in the top five on the list. We will start with number five and work our way to number one. Each correct answer is equal to two tickets. You can turn your answers to me beginning Tuesday, February 17.
5. This was our 33rd president. His middle name is S . The S in his middle name does not represent anything. There is no period after the S since it doesn't stand for anything.
4. The Teddy Bear was named after him. He is also given some credit for helping Maxwell House establish one of their most famous slogans of all time: "It's Good to the Last Drop." He was the 26th president.
3. This president was one of eight presidents to die while in office. He served longer than any other president, served four terms, and was the first president to have a presidential aircraft and fly in a presidential plane. He was the 32nd president.
2. This president was the only to receive 100% of the Electoral College votes in both 1789 and 1782. He was the first president of the United States.
1. The nation just recently celebrated this president's 200th birthday. He was assassinated in the Ford Theater, a theater no other President visited until Gerald Ford came along. He spent time working on flatboats taking cargo to New Orleans, realizing first hand the struggles of slaves in the South. He was the 16th president.
