William N. Tilchin challenges the assertions of political scientist Justin S. Vaughn made on the editorial page of the New York Times regarding the best and worst former United States presidents. Tilchin contends that Herbert Hoover and Jimmy Carter do not meet the standard of the best category while Theodore Roosevelt does not belong in the worst category. Tilchin criticizes the field of political science for its lack of historical knowledge, and he chastises the New York Times for publishing a poor piece of scholarship.
