Shamelessly plundering the idea from Norm, it’s time for an exciting new development here at Debatable Land HQ: Polling! Yes, indeed…
And given that this is a Presidential election year in the United States, what better way to begin than by conducting a Presidential poll? We are familiar with polls in which historians rank US Presidents in order of greatness in which the same names – Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and so on – always finish at the top. So let’s attempt something a little different.
The Debatable Land polling organisation wants you to nominate your choices for the Most Over-Rated and Most Under-Rated Presidents in American history.
The rules are simple:
1. You may nominate up to three Presidents in each category.
2. Three points will be awarded to your first selection, two to your second and one to your third.
