Reagan also, in my view, had displayed sufficient symptoms of his Alzheimers to his physicians during his FIRST TERM that he should never have ran nor been re-elected for a second one.
I do admire the 'skill' it took to maintain the secret for as long as they did.
Regarding FDR not being on the list, I remain amazed at his ability to organize/delegate tasks necessary to win victory in WWII. There is something beyond intelligence (or whatever the survey measured) to explain his skill in getting the country thru that.
(I admit, sometimes I may have remarked the US ability in generally winning wars is to just throw more and more resources at the problem till it goes away, and that isn't really all that sophisticated a strategy, but I think there really was much more savvy behind the scenes to get VE and VJ Days a reality)

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
