Of the 8,111 students whom College Pulse asked, a plurality- 22 percent- said the honor belonged to Obama, with Franklin D. Roosevelt (14 percent), Abraham Lincoln (14 percent) and George Washington (12 percent) taking the next three spots.

“I’m gonna say Obama, because that’s the only thing that comes to mind,” one student admitted while another touted the former President’s “integrity and ability to represent everyone.”
