Looking back over American history, obviously some elections were more important than others. Here is your chance to play soothsayer: How important will this election be seen to have been by historians 500 years from now? Take the poll, and feel free to leave a comment explaining your position.
Note: “Important” doesn’t mean that you agree with everything a given president did, just how much influence they had on the nation’s history. Thus the appearance of Reagan and Nixon on the poll…
And again, the question isn’t how you feel today; it’s how you think historians will remember this election in 2508… and the comments are your chance to explain why.
