Teddy Roosevelt was awesome due to his sheer manliness and general feats of badassery.
Ford was cool because he was the only president to tackle a Heisman Trophy winner.
Andrew Jackson is super badass because the mother****er fought in 13 duels, survived multiple gunshot wounds throughout his life, beat a would be assassin with his cane, had a foul mouthed parrot, beat the living crap out of the British during the War of 1812, and is mentioned in a Johnny Horton song.
