The last president alive who will leave us having earned the word "Honorable" and that, that makes me sad.

Not trying to be a jerk but I legitimately cannot think of another one besides Abraham Lincoln.

By today's ruler yes, but measured with the ruler of their time, there have been more.

In my own lifetime, I've watched society's view on what is considered right and honorable, move multiple times. And for the better too! I can say without any excess guilt, that I wasn't always already on the right side of things until after the fact. Judging the past through the lenses of today alone is unwise.
