                                       businessman who served as the 43rd president of the United States from

                                       served as the 46th governor of Texas from 1995 to 2000. Bush was among
                                       the most popular, as well as unpopular, U.S. presidents in history; he
                                       received the highest recorded approval ratings in the wake of the 9/11
                  George W. Bush
                                       attacks, but one of the lowest such ratings during the 2008 financial crisis.

                                       Harry S. Truman (May 8, 1884 – December 26, 1972) was an American
                                       politician who served as the 33rd president of the United States from
                                       1945 to 1953, succeeding upon the death of Franklin D. Roosevelt after
                                       serving as vice president. He implemented the Marshall Plan to rebuild the
                                       economy of Western Europe, and established the Truman
                                      Doctrine and NATO. It was his unenviable decision to decide whether to
                  Harry S. Truman      use the atomic bomb for the first time to end WWII.
