10. Bill Clinton
SRI Ranking: 8
Brookings Institution Ranking: 13
Bill Clinton ranks 10th on our list of most successful presidents of all time. He presided over one of the best economic periods in the history of the United States. With the Cold War over, he was the first US president since the World War 2 not to have Soviet Union as the major threat and that led to US interventions in Bosnia and Kosovo. All of his achievements were almost undone by his affair with Monika Lewinski, which led to him becoming only the second president to be impeached by the Congress. Fortunately for Clinton legacy, the Senate later acquitted him.
