This weekend, Steven Spielberg's "Lincoln" hits theaters. From director Steven Spielberg, the film is a sweeping look at the vaulted sixteenth President of the United States, as played by one-time oil magnate (and frequent milkshake drinker) Daniel Day-Lewis. While Lincoln was the closest thing we have to a superhero -- strong-willed, clearly moral, vampire hunter -- not every American elected to the status of President deserves his own movie.
Below, we have compiled a list of presidents who, if given the big-screen treatment, would probably be something of a letdown. Shout out to all those Warren G. Harding apologists out there!
