The Progressive control of academia has lead to a historical smearing of Republican Presidents. Democratic Presidents are usually ranked higher through an undisclosed method. For example, Woodrow Wilson is considered a top 10 President. This is laughable since his Progressive polices collapsed the economy. His racist based intervention in Latin America damaged our reputation there permanently. He was a supporter of the KKK and segregated the armed forces. Ronald Reagan is not given his due. Despite he engineered America’s Cold War victory. This is bias pure and simple on the part of the left.
According to a University of Miami study, those historical rankings of American presidents that pop up every year or so are significantly weighted in favor of Democrats, thanks to the liberal leanings of academia.
Political science professor Joseph E. Uscinski, one of the study’s authors, said the new analysis shows that the overwhelmingly liberal academic community consistently ranks Republican presidents about 10 spots lower than the public would.
“I don’t think anyone is surprised,” Mr. Uscinski told The Washington Times. “Among the political scientists and historians that I work with, Democrats outnumber Republicans 8 to 1.”

In the C-SPAN rankings – the focus of much of the University of Miami analysis – Reagan in 2009 broke into the Top Ten, behind Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, Franklin Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt, Harry Truman, John F. Kennedy, Thomas Jefferson, Dwight Eisenhower and Woodrow Wilson.
But on other surveys, the late conservative icon falls much lower. A 2010 Siena College poll has Reagan at No. 18, behind Bill Clinton, Lyndon Baines Johnson and Barack Obama.
These surveys have no credibility. Anyone who things a failure and evil monster like Woodrow Wilson or a psychopathic liar like LBJ are better than Reagan are outright lying. Academia has a Progressive bias and can’t be trusted. They are just an arm of the Left’s propaganda indoctrination.
