Greatest Americans

stewartcumming · 04-20-2006, 08:38 AM

A couple of years ago the BBC ran a poll to find who the British thought was the greates Briton of all. A couple of other countries ran polls of their own, but I am not aware that USA have done?

Who would you nominate for the greatest American and why?

Here is one Poll

While I obviously view it from a British perspective, I'm suprised that Reagan pulled a No 1 spot

Benjamin Franklin. The word awesome doesn't do him justice.
