Tough calculation. But since Washington got the entire American project off the ground, can't we basically lay the whole fukking 240 years of mayhem on his feet?
Washington was a strong proponent of an isolationist America. If you’re going to go that route it would probably be Monroe or “World Police” Teddy Roosevelt.

You have to separate real war time versus "peace" time.

Truman was president and dropped nukes on Japan and the Korean War.

FDR, Wilson, Monroe, Nixon, Bush 2, Lincoln and Johnson were War presidents.

In "peace" times, its not crazy to say any president since the end of the Korean War.

I'm thinking back to how he was a slaveowner who used to terrorize Native American populations though. Combine his wars to take Native land, his slaveowning, and his promotion of westward expansion, I think he's a fine candidate to symbolize what America is and has been. Just because he suggested "only" terrorizing the black and brown folk within arms reach in his own day doesn't mean that future expansions aren't still in line with his basic ethic of domination.

Id say Eisenhower backdoor. All those nuclear above ground tests that irradiated people who died of cancer later.

Didn’t the Civil War also have a lot of bodies? Lincoln might be up there too....:jbhmm:
more people died on the Union side than the Confederate side.

only around 300,000 on the Confederacy died.

i think its gotta be fdr, truman or lbj. its hard to tell with WWII because of the amount of joint operations between allied forces.
