        Why on earth should only someone be seen as an "enormously famous individual" if he had a "practical impact" on history??? And what exactly would be "practical" enough here?

        Being a famous writer is part of human history, as well as being a general or politician or a scientist or or or.....

                He was a druck addict who did very little for this country but get us into messes. What most people associate with him that was good was actually done by others.

                    People who did things after he was dead..

                    I put him as one of the worst of the 20th century presidents.

                      He's been very busy at work, but is back to play now.

                        He was inspirational. I also was one of those inspired by his example.

                        For worst presidents it would be hard to top Nixon or Carter, at least in my lifetime.

                          Good pick. What did he actually do?
