    George Washington -contrary to popular belief, he was a master at deception when it came to war. Andrew Jackson- some man tried to shoot him while dual wielding two pistols. Both guns misfired. Andrew Jackson proceeded to beat him to within an inch of his life with his cane. Not to mention the bullets in his body from duels. Teddy- got shot in chest right before delivering a speech, delivered speech anyway. FDR- was paralyzed, [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvKDwBMEycw]still managed to walk[/url], successfully led America from isolationist to internationalist, and lifted America off its knees to the most powerful country in the world. All while sitting in a wheelchair. JFK- In WW2 his PT boat was rammed by Jap ship. Despite chronic back problems, he managed to pull another man to safety with his teeth as he swam to another island.

    • This isn't exactly a nomination but rather just an observation. Reagan ended a war by simply being elected. But no Nobel piece prize for him cause he wasn't a brown noser.

        Theodore Roosevelt should be the standard for becoming president. No one should be allowed to become president until they prove themselves to be just as badass as he was.

      • TR is a joke compared to Jackson. The guy had three bullets lodged in his body while he was in office, and he beat an alleged assailant senseless with his cane. He was also batshit crazy. He thought the Bank of the US was trying to kill him (For clarification: NOT LITERALLY, IDIOTS!), so he shut it down.

          Theodore Roosevelt. Awarded the Medal of Honor and the Nobel Peace Prize. Folks have listed a bunch of other reasons why he was awesome. Oh, and he punched the asthma out of his body.

        • I like George Washington because if he wanted to be king he could have been but instead he decided to let someone else have a shot at being president

            • Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion--that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth
