	Nice quiz: definitely tougher with birth states (took me a minute to connect Reagan with Illinois). Need to fix Taft and Tyler's home states though.

	Unless I typed it wrong, number 31 wouldn't take Van Buren (which I believe was his last name)...it only accepted Buren.

	I really enjoyed this quiz. Very nicely done with the birth states to make it more intresting. Possibly, less time because I finished with 5 minutes to spare.

	It's a nice idea for a quiz and I had fun playing it, but I just don't think it's really fair. These presidents are not ranked in order from best to worst, this is just the result of a survey CSPN did. It doesn't mean that Abraham Lincoln was the best president, it just means he had the most points when all the categories were added up. Obviously, LBJ and Polk weren't better presidents than Jackson. I know there's nothing that can really be changed here, I just wanted to clarify that this isn't exactly true.

	I'm not usually one to ask for less time, but after you type in all the ones you knwo, you still have plenty of time left to try everybody left over in every remaining state.

	I like how Eisenhower gets credit, but don't like how low Cleveland and Taft are...

	You should specify "birth state" instead of "home state." Lincoln may have been born in Kentucky, but his home state is considered Illinois, and Reagan may have been born in Illinois, but he's clearly associated with California (and many more examples).

	@hermes76: Taking away the Civil War from Buchanan would be like ignoring the Civil War in Lincoln's presidency and calling him mediocre. Pretty much every action he took on slavery pushed our country closer to war. Also Buchanan was not fairly good outside of the civil war. The same goes for Harding and the Teapot Dome scandal. He was probably our most corrupt president; he used his presidency as a money-making bribe-taking machine. He was also pretty much crap outside of that. I kind of agree with you on Harrison, this is why he is sometimes left off of rankings. Bush might slide closer to the bottom as time moves on. Your assessment of Nixon is likely based purely on Watergate, he did many positive things during his presidency. Deciding to pull us out of Vietnam example or opening relations with China, but he too was paranoid and hungry for power. Rating a president in a historical sense 15 months into his first term isn't possible.

	I would take Ike and Jefferson over JFK any day
