nixon a good president???

[on:]

know someone tell me why nixon's head is in the good president's section. and no one say that he's there cause he opened up relations with china and also why is jimmy carter there aswell i thought he was detested (information collected by watching the simpsons) i mean i wasn't alive in the 70's but wasn't he dubed a bad president. anyway the manic street preachers have a song called the love of richard nixon.
the lyrics are
The world on your shoulders
The love of your mother
The fear of the future
The best years behind you
The world is getting older
The times they fall behind you
The need it still grows stronger
The best years never found you

The love of Richard Nixon, death without assasination
The love of Richard Nixon, yeah they all betrayed you
The love of Richard Nixon, death without assasination
Yeah they all betrayed you
Yeah and your country too

Love build around the sandy beaches
Love rains down like Vietnam's leeches
Richard the third in the White House
Cowering behind divided curtains

The world is getting older
The times they fall behind you
The need it still grows stronger
The best years never found you

Ah, the love of richard nixon, death without assasination
The love of Richard Nixon, yeah they all betrayed you
The love of Richard Nixon, death without assasination
Yeah they all betrayed you
Yeah and your country too

The love of Richard Nixon, death without assasination
The love of Richard Nixon, yeah they all betrayed you
People forget China and your war on cancer
Yeah they all betrayed you
Yeah and your country too

In all the decisions I have made in my public life,
I have always tried to do what was best for the nation.
I have never been a quitter

He was in the Presidential section, good or bad all the presidents are there.

Don't get your political information from animated sitcoms, particular sitcoms known for doing political satire from time to time. Some see Carter as a good president, some as a bad depending on their political views and priorities. Search the web, get some information, form your own opinion.

If you're thinking of the Closet of Presidential Losers, those were men that had run for President and lost.
