A Visual History Of The US Presidency
Even though it lacks material data on the evaluation of what some will one day soon say is the most critical presidency in the history of America (the current one obviously, due to what the country will look like in its aftermath), the attached chart from timeplots.com is enough to fill several history lessons with informative and interesting data. On the other hand, what the chart is missing is data on the real rulers of the country: the Fed-Wall Street megalomaniacal manipulative moneyed complex. We hope timeplots, in the next iteration of this chart, comes up with the www.timeplots.com/FOMC_criminal_syndicate version and presents just which Wall Street firms receive how many billions in bonuses and/or bailouts under what Fed Chairman.

Who do you think is the president of Switzerland?
Neither do I.
Think for a moment how great that is.
Oh...to live in a small-government commercial republic that minds it's own business! (Look! it's president what's-his-name here to cut the ribbon for the new Utica sewage treatment facility. Haven't heard much from him in a while...) Ahhhh...
Coolidge is probably the closest we ever came to that executive outlook.
I find it's often hard to dispel the thought that Obama will be the last US president.
Maybe some great place like Greece?
All the problems. Not large enough to generate a solution. What's so great about it?
"(Look! it's president what's-his-name here to cut the ribbon for the new Utica sewage treatment facility. Haven't heard much from him in a while...) Ahhhh..."
I'm feelin' it.
Andrew Jackson got only 4 stars?! He should get 5 for no other reason that he shut down the predecessor of the Federal Reserve, the Second Bank of the United States. Jackson knew the value of real money and the criminal tendencies of the Gangster Banksters.
My avatar agrees. He was pretty much a badass on the battlefield, too. Real men get nicknames like "Stonewall" or "Ole Hickory". Pussies get nicknames like Dubya or Timmay. Andy Jackson saved New Orleans, Dubya and Barack O'Potus have given New Orleans a 1-2 knockout punch.
The Vikings will deliver the knock out blow 9/9/10.
pan-the-ist
what's the significance of this date?
We're waiting Pan...
That is opening day for the NFL season. Saints host the Vikings.

True. Still, a lot of good stuff there Tyler, thanks.
indeed. i never knew adlai stevenson was vice president. you could win some bar bets with that (outside illinois). just don't entertain additional questions after the initial proposal.
NWO - dont matter who's in the seat
Great post, but there's clearly bias to more govt in the diagram.
Still very impressed by the workmanship.
I agree. True learning about history could lead one to lower the rankings of Lincoln and especially FDR.
Say What?

It doesn't fit on my netbook. It definitely warrants a second look when I get to a PC.
1982 - 401k/IRA programs started. President Ronald Reagan
1971 - gold standard abolished. President Richard Nixon
1995 - glass steagall abolished. President William Clinton
20?? - Above 3 reversed. President ??
Heavy recency bias in the chart. Reagan will be viewed on a par with Grover Cleveland and Calvin Coolidge, also great Laissez-faire, pro-business presidents who presided over a period of prosperity. Keep in mind Hoover and GW Bush were also Laissez-fairists who simply were unlucky to have presided over the end of a period of prosperity.
History looks more favorably toward leaders who presided over periods of crisis when choices were difficult (FD Roosevelt, Lincoln, Churchill)
THE PONZ:

What about the military complex and oil cartels? Do they work with the bankers/fed or do they just take turns robbing the system.
As suggested earlier, the EURUSD daily chart is giving bullish signals.
