Who Was It?

Who was the last President who didnt lick his balls in public, and made you proud of America?

John F. Kennedy.
 
Ignoring the American President bit James, I'm going to shock the world and say Margaret Thatcher... even though she was a little extreme for my taste.
 
Jimmy Carter. He was bewildered in the job--but, considering politics, I see that as a good thing. Just in the wrong job. He's been doing splendidly since then.

Before that? Dwight D. Eisenhower, I guess. Although that was in a time before the media (and the public that drives them) became shock and awe research vultures. (Even Dwight had his daliance. But if you knew Mamie . . .) Eisenhower gave us our national highway system, which is nothing to sneeze at.
 


Dwight D. Eisenhower "packed heat" when he was briefly President of Columbia University after WWII. He thought New York City was a dangerous place and he was ready to defend himself if the need ever arose. It's difficult to imagine "Ike" taking too much guff from the peanut gallery.


Similarly, regardless of your opinion of Ronald Reagan's politics, you have to admire anyone who in the E.R. following an assassination attempt has enough of a sense of humor to quip ( in this case to Nancy ): "Honey, I forgot to duck."


Barack Obama doesn't do much for me but I give the man credit for guts in pursuing the Presidency all the while knowing that there are nutjobs out there who'd like to do him harm.

I don't know about the nut licking, but Teddy Roosevelt was a President I could definitely admire. So far I have no problems with Obama. Especially considering the nightmare of a job he inherited.
 
I like you... you're funny ............for a taff :D

Why thank you *takes a sweeping bow* I have my moments. Apparently.

Though you'd be hard pressed to know I'd ever lived in Wales... unless I chose to borrow the accent, which of course I frequently do... who wouldn't?

Since no Welshman has ever grown taller than 4 feet, we'd likely recognize you. Or smell you.

They breed a rare form of woman in parts of Wales. . . . .
And I agree with you about Mrs T.
 
Oh yes they do

... and I've got one of 'em ... a Jones at that. A handful she is too.
She tells me that a quarter of the women in Wales are named Jones.

Is that true?
