Craughwell (along with M. William Phelps) is the author of Failures of the Presidents: From the Whiskey Rebellion and the War of 1812 to the Bay of Pigs and War in Iraq. What do you think? For your information, I have not read the book. He compiled his list of the "The Top Ten Mistakes" on the Encyclopedia Britannica Blog, and it can be found at:http://www.britannica.com/blogs/author/tcraughwell

I think it's cool that we have learned about half of these Top 10 mistakes. Others I had never heard about. MG
This article was very intresting. I didn't even know what the Whiskey Uprising existed. President Grant's idea of deporting blacks to Santo Domingo to avoid discrimination was very unsensible

I thought that i could relate to the article some what because we have studied some of the topics.
I also didn't that the whiskey rebellion existed (just like Lea).
I didn't think that the Watergate scandal would be so highly ranked also.
