This was good but I think there is too much time and the years kind of give it away

It certainly does take a whole lot of stupid to not get 100% on this one.

Agreed with Treemeister...the years give it away.

Truman's numbers were high during the final months of World War II and in the aftermath of the war. They plummeted with a post-war recession, his Fair Deal programs being stalled and dying in Congress (among them universal health care), and most significantly, the complete stalemate of an increasingly unpopular war in Korea following China's intervention. Ironically, he is considered one of the better presidents by historians who have taken into account his foreign policy successes that were overlooked by the public at the time. (The United Nations, the Marshall Plan, the North Atlantic Treaty, the doctrine of containment, etc.)

Great now that you've taken away the years! Although, perhaps you could put it this way: If, for example, the high was on Sept. 12,2001, you could put "Sept. 11, First year [in office]", or even just "First year." That way, we can see the RELATIVE year [for educational purposes] w/o it giving away the president? Still, GREAT quiz.
