Could Chester Arthur be considered a good president?


* He modernized the Navy
* He fought Congress to reform the civil service system, after James Garfield was assassinated by a disgruntled job-seeker
* Instrumental in passage of the Pendleton Act of 1883
* Enacted the first federal immigration law

Why don't more Americans hold him in higher regard?

Is this because he didn't die in office like other "great" presidents? (Lincoln, Kennedy, FDR, etc.,)

I consider him to have been a good president. He is held in fairly high regard. Here are a couple of quotes I found: Publisher Alexander K. McClure wrote, "No man ever entered the Presidency so profoundly and widely distrusted, and no one ever retired鈥?more generally respected." Author Mark Twain, deeply cynical about politicians, conceded, "It would be hard indeed to better President Arthur's administration."

I would say that some lack of high regard may stem from that he was not elected to the Presidency, and he only served the one term as the 21st.
