The poll, released over Presidents Day weekend, places Biden ahead of notable figures such as Woodrow Wilson, Ronald Reagan, and Ulysses S. Grant.
In contrast, former President Donald Trump ranks at the bottom of the list, being deemed the worst president in the nation’s history. Biden's positioning in the top third is attributed partially to his predecessor, Trump, by various news outlets.
Biden's achievements, including navigating the end of the COVID pandemic, infrastructure revitalization, and leading international efforts against Russian aggression, contribute to his historical standing.
However, historians highlight Biden's pivotal accomplishment as evicting Trump from the Oval Office and restoring a more traditional style of presidential leadership.
The poll's conductors, college professors Justin Vaughn and Brandon Rottinghaus, emphasized Biden's role in preserving the presidency from his predecessor's influence.
