Presidential Factors

There are many factors that contribute to a president's overall success. First, there is leadership. Leading through a tough time make a president very respectable if they deal with it well and make few mistakes that would damage the peoples' lives or how they live them. A positive version of this would be FDR being a good sturdy leader during World war two. A negative portion of leadership was Herbert Hoover during the Great Depression, while he did try to create jobs, he will always be remembered by how he let everyone further and further into economic depression. Second, is connection with the citizens. A president who leads from the streets and not from a pedestal behind a wall of security is a very likable one. To me a president that shows they understand what struggles even the lowest class is going through is one that should be in office not one born into a privileged family and has never seen the struggles of poverty. Third, the ability to withhold a good economy when a stable or profitable economic environment is present then the whole country generally is more accepting of the president. A;though no president is perfect, these factors could get a president very close to it on my list.
