1. also includes the "THREE living former Presidents" WTF?

3. re...Love JFK, but if I were going to incarnate any former President
to help during this particular time in history, it would surely be FDR.

4. FDR probably would have locked up all of the American-Middle Eastern people right after 9/11.
No thanks.

7. And those who "looked" Middle Eastern too---remember the Chinese were thrown into internment camps.
Or some of them at least.

5. I'd like to think that the writer of the article slipped "the" in there accidentally when saying
3 former presidents were on the list, instead of implying there are only 3 alive. Carter, imho, should be near the top, but I digress.

Also, it's refreshing to see Americans keep HRC at #1 most respected female, instead of that *other* woman.

6. USA Today
The newspaper for dummies. No wonder some of the choices are dead and most of the rest just ridiculous.

8. Shirley Susan can't be series.
But then is USA Today really a newspaper?
