Laws named after victims remain a source of debate. While plenty of <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/crimes-by-rich-white-women/elle-tharp" target="_blank">brutal crimes</a> occur within any given year, only a very small percentage&nbsp;lead to changes to our legal system. When it comes to US laws created because of crimes, public outrage is key. Particularly <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/crimes-by-rich-white-women/elle-tharp" target="_blank">horrifying kidnappings</a>, murders, and suicides receive&nbsp;an unusual amount of press coverage, often resulting in&nbsp;the widespread backlash needed to pressure politicians into reforming the legal system.&nbsp;The crimes that resulted in new laws&nbsp;were already illegal when they were committed. The resulting legislation is usually seen&nbsp;as closing a loophole or addressing a unique aspect of the crime. However, there is much public debate on whether such laws are ethical or effective. People who have laws named after them are honored and memorialized, on the one hand, but critics argue such laws are often too reactionary to be truly effective.&nbsp;If you're unsure where you stand on the issue, browse this list. It will help you develop a more detailed understanding of how and why some crimes lead to new laws.&nbsp;

The health of <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-u-s-presidents-from-best-to-worst">US Presidents</a> is a well-kept secret, especially while they&rsquo;re in office.&nbsp;The public is on a need-to-know basis, and, generally speaking, the government doesn&#39;t&nbsp;think the public needs to know at all &ndash; especially when it comes to presidents&#39; illnesses.&nbsp;From George Washington to Teddy Roosevelt to Barack Obama, presidents have suffered from various ailments before, during, and after holding their positions. Considering how unwell some of these guys were, it&#39;s amazing they accomplished anything at all during their <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/us-president-first-100-days/stephanroget" target="_blank">first 100 days in office</a>.

Some presidents were pretty healthy from a young age;&nbsp;others were sickly during their whole lives, and others were plagued with maladies on and off &ndash;&nbsp;no actual instances of plague, though, luckily. However, some of these presidential ailments might just surprise you.

Smarts

An intelligence quotient test (IQ test)&nbsp;is a series of standardized tests used to gauge and assess a person&#39;s intelligence. While most people will never take a formal IQ test,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/crazy-things-people-do-to-boost-iqs/cynthia-griffith" target="_blank">high IQs</a> have nevertheless always been a topic of public interest.

In recent history, US president IQs have been the&nbsp;subject of debate and discussion. This is in part due to&nbsp;Donald Trump&#39;s perpetual tweeting about his high IQ during the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/controversial-american-elections/kellen-perry" target="_blank">controversial election cycle</a> of 2016. This led people to wonder who the smartest and dumbest presidents were throughout history.&nbsp;

A president&#39;s IQ is rarely made public, and many United States presidents were born before the modern IQ test was invented. Nevertheless, many psychological studies have provided educated guesses of presidential IQ based on a variety of factors. When it comes to IQ scores, a score over 140 is considered genius level.

Research indicates most presidents fall somewhere around 130, but&nbsp;that doesn&#39;t mean America has never had a genius in the Oval Office. There are outliers on either side, with many presidents&#39;&nbsp;IQs being higher or lower than average. If you&#39;re curious to learn where our presidents rank in terms of intellectual prowess, browse the list below.

Assassinations

On April 14, 1865, John Wilkes Booth shot Abraham Lincoln at Ford&#39;s Theatre in Washington, DC.&nbsp;Much has been written about <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/facts-about-john-wilkes-booth/stephanroget" target="_blank">Booth</a>&#39;s motivations: that he was a Confederate sympathizer, or&nbsp;suffering from professional jealousy, or simply wanted attention. Regardless, when Booth left Ford&#39;s Theatre that night, he had indelibly changed the course of history, slaying&nbsp;a man&nbsp;now considered one of the nation&#39;s <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-u-s-presidents-from-best-to-worst" target="_blank">greatest presidents</a>.

In the weeks, months, and years following the event, the nation grappled&nbsp;with the consequences of Booth&#39;s actions. But for Booth himself, the results were much more immediate. In John Wilkes Booth&#39;s final days, he ran. He ran for 13 days, from Ford&#39;s Theatre all the way to a small farm near Port Royal, VA. The search to find him&nbsp;was <a href="https://www.history.com/topics/american-civil-war/abraham-lincoln-assassination" target="_blank">one of the biggest manhunts</a> in history, with&nbsp;10,000 federal troops involved.&nbsp;

It&#39;s hard to say what kind of future Booth thought he had, or what he thought might happen to him if he were caught. But for nearly a fortnight&nbsp;days, from&nbsp;April 14-26, America held its breath and followed the thrilling hunt for the man who had slain President Lincoln.

More than ever, Americans have their finger on the pulse of social issues - and they aren&#39;t shy about expressing it.&nbsp;Social media has become a forum, allowing more Americans than ever to openly express&nbsp;their opinions about current events. While polling has the <a href="http://www.gallup.com/poll/189158/economy-tops-americans-minds-important-problem.aspx">economy in general</a> as the most vital social issue in America, it&#39;s far from the only thing&nbsp;that has&nbsp;Americans paying attention. If op-eds, political talk shows, and topics trending on social media&nbsp;are any indication, Americans today care about an incredibly&nbsp;diverse range of topics. We now live in an age where anyone can have their voice heard with just a few clicks. This means previously overlooked&nbsp;sociological concerns are ripe for examination - and some&nbsp;healthy debate.&nbsp;

What popular social issues do you care most about? There are those issues that hit closest to home. <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-important-education-issues/lauren-slocum" target="_blank">Educational issues</a> like student debt are a major concern. Civil rights, poverty, and access to affordable housing are current concerns that affect many in a direct, immediate fashion.&nbsp;Other societal problems represent larger - and often more existential - concerns.&nbsp;The environment, climate change, and the ethics of&nbsp;scientific research affect us all, but their implications are often felt in an indirect fashion. Nevertheless,&nbsp;you may still feel a passionate dedication to these types of causes. Here you will find examples of major social issues&nbsp;as well as names of types of different challenges society faces.&nbsp;

Presidents of the United States have a lot of distinctive characteristics, mannerisms, and claims to fame. One president may be known for a <a href="/list/list-of-us-president-nicknames/reference" target="_blank">distinct nickname</a> - given in his own time or acquired through history - or for a specific event that took place while in office. Often, the path to a successful presidential campaign itself features strongly in what people remember about a commander-in-chief.&nbsp;

Alongside presidential campaign slogans, candidates for the highest office in the United States distinguish themselves through debate, statements along the campaign trail, and, in more modern contexts, social media posts. Winning slogans, however, play a large role in garnering national attention, sometimes playing on emotions or hearkening&nbsp;back to an earlier time.

Here&#39;s a list of some political slogans used by presidential candidates since the mid-19th century. Which ones have&nbsp;the pith, intelligence, and pure brilliance to make you want to go back in time and place your vote?

Military history has a few figures who didn&#39;t just win battles or campaigns, but changed the world and the destiny of their nations. From the earliest world conquerors, men who laid waste to the entire known world; to modern tactical geniuses using weapons that previous generations only dreamed of, these are the <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/us-army-generals/mike-rothschild?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">best military leaders</a>, those who were known, feared and respected by both their people and their opponents.

In September 1985, the Parents&nbsp;Music Resource Center (PMRC) formed out of concern for the dangers of music on the American public. The PMRC&#39;s&nbsp;founders identified the most offensive musicians and lyrics in the hopes of instituting a rating system for music, much like the one that existed&nbsp;for movies. The music censorship interest group believed that the material presented in popular music was poisoning the minds of America&#39;s youth, and the music industry needed to clean up its act before children were corrupted by the evils of rock and roll.&nbsp;

Two of the most prominent members of the PMRC&nbsp;were Tipper Gore, the&nbsp;wife of then-Senator Al Gore, and Susan Baker, wife of Secretary of State James Baker. They&nbsp;were also part of a group of women known as the &quot;Washington Wives,&quot; and they had enough clout in DC&nbsp;to get a Senate&nbsp;hearing about regulating the music industry.&nbsp;

The PMRC is the reason&nbsp;parental advisory stickers are still found on some albums today. Before it got to that point, Congress listened to some of the so-called controversial musicians singled out by the PMRC. One of the controversial artists, <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/untrue-rock-star-rumors/jacob-shelton" target="_blank">rock star</a> Dee Snider from Twisted Sister, faced off with the PMRC&nbsp;and broke down their arguments one-by-one&nbsp;in a public forum.&nbsp;Snider&#39;s speech to Congress didn&#39;t save rock and roll (or any other kind of music)&nbsp;from advisory labels, but he definitely made an impression and got in some good punches&nbsp;as he made it clear he wasn&#39;t going to take it anymore.&nbsp;

Food History

George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln are larger-than-life historical figures, but they, along with&nbsp;more contemporary notables like JFK and Ronald Reagan, were all ordinary human beings before they held the office of the presidency, and that means they all had favorite foods. Even world leaders need to consume calories to survive, but what actually goes in each presidential mouth can vary wildly depending on the administration.

Presidential personalities have ranged greatly over the decade, and their individual palates reflect this, with favorite foodstuffs fluctuating as frequently as foreign policy. Each POTUS has made special requests from the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/white-house-kitchen-rules-and-regulations/ryan-sargent" target="_blank">White House kitchen</a>&nbsp;or the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/presidents-first-ladies-best-recipes/setareh-janda" target="_blank">recipe file of the first lady</a>.

Why do presidents pardon people? It depends on the situation and who you ask, as the topic of presidential pardons is&nbsp;ripe with controversy. United States history is no stranger to <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/scandals-during-elections-in-us-history/michael-anderson" target="_blank">political scandals</a> and p<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/presidents-investigated-by-fbi/stephanroget" target="_blank">residential corruption</a>, and pardons are often a cause of public outrage. Oftentimes, individuals&nbsp;granted clemency by the Commander in Chief&nbsp;become the subject of national debate. Even partial pardons - like commuted sentences - are often met with backlash. Here, you'll find every president's most controversial pardon, ranked by your votes. As they're absolved of past criminal convictions, people who have been pardoned by the president get a second chance at life. However, there is a lot of disagreement in regards to who actually&nbsp;deserves&nbsp;a second chance. The nation was appalled when Gerald Ford pardoned Nixon for his part in Watergate, as Americans&nbsp;were desperate to see reparation for widespread political corruption. Donald Trump's pardon of Joe Arpaio&nbsp;sparked a debate as to whether the Arizona sheriff was a deeply prejudiced tyrant or an unsung champion of justice.

There are dozens of celebratory, and occasionally apocryphal, <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/crazy-teddy-roosevelt-stories/thaneeconomou" target="_blank">tales about President Theodore&nbsp;Roosevelt</a>&nbsp;- one of <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-u-s-presidents-from-best-to-worst" target="_blank">America’s most popular Presidents</a> - but the story of him and his brother, Elliott, is not one worthy of celebration. Any simple biography composed of Elliott Bulloch Roosevelt facts is filled with tragedy&nbsp;and - although many of the troubles in his life were self-inflicted -&nbsp;his brother conspired to further ruin him.Fearing a potential scandal due to Elliott’s alcoholism and womanizing, some contend that Teddy made moves to <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/how-teddy-roosevelt-diffused-a-scandal-by-destroying-his-brothers-marriage" target="_blank">protect his reputation</a>. He went so far as to exile Elliott to Paris and later rip him from his family and institutionalize him.&nbsp;This callous treatment of his younger brother helped preserve Theodore’s reputation long enough to win him the White House, but it also destroyed his brother’s life and ultimately led to his suicide at 34 years old.

As one of the Founding Fathers, George Washington holds a special place in American history. During his first term as the first president of the United States, Washington helped unify the new nation and was a leading force behind the ratification of the Constitution. From 1789 to 1792, he oversaw the establishment of the nation&#39;s capital,&nbsp;appointed the federal judiciary, and shaped foreign and domestic policy alike.&nbsp;

The fiercely private <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/private-life-of-george-washington/genevieve-carlton" target="_blank">Washington</a> didn&#39;t want to serve a second term as president, but reluctantly agreed to do so after winning reelection in 1792. For the subsequent four years, Washington fought to keep the country together in the face of domestic upheaval and foreign pressures -&nbsp;not to mention the bickering of his closest advisors. The Whiskey Rebellion, a conflict in Europe, and administrative instability fed by the strife within Washington&#39;s cabinet all factored into his decision to walk away from the office.

The difficulties of Washington&#39;s second term took a toll on the president and the American people, all of which contributed to the warnings he gave to the country when he retired in 1797.

The worst U.S. presidents of all time, measured by their negative impact on the nation, its citizens health and happiness, and its future prosperity. (In some cases -&nbsp;such as the popular selections of Warren G. Harding and Richard Nixon -&nbsp;the negative view of the president and his administration is due to various scandals and perceived corruption within its ranks. Nixon remains the only president to step down from the office amid&nbsp;threats of impeachment.)

Much of a president&#39;s job -&nbsp;including serving as the figurative head of the American state and setting the nation&#39;s general legislative and diplomatic agenda -&nbsp;is sort of intangible and hard to evaluate in strict &quot;good vs. bad&quot; terms. This makes any list of the &quot;best&quot; or &quot;worst&quot; US presidents essentially subjective, and though there were administrations with a significant series of positive or negative outcomes, it&#39;s rarely clear just how much these had to do with the person in office and how many were simply due to accidents of fate or circumstance. Nonetheless, in particularly extraordinary cases -&nbsp;such as the administration of Abraham Lincoln, which kept the nation intact during the Civil War crisis, or the administration of Andrew Johnson immediately after that threatened the entire success of the Reconstruction project -&nbsp;it is clear which presidents did an overall good or bad job.

Which celebrity would you actually vote for if they ran for President of the United States? Many celebrities, from Kanye West to Dwayne &quot;The Rock&quot; Johnson, have publicly considered running for president. However, which celebrity do you think would actually make a good president?

After Oprah&#39;s powerful Golden Globes speech in 2018, in which she slammed the mistreatment of women in the film industry, there was a lot of buzz&nbsp;online of her launching a 2020 bid. It didn&#39;t happen in 2020, but one can dream.&nbsp;There are plenty of other actors, rappers, and just plain famous people who could probably handle having their finger on the button. From Kim Kardashian to Stephen Colbert, and even Charlie Sheen, here&rsquo;s a definitive list of other celebrities who should run for President of the United States.

If you think about it, being President of the United States isn&rsquo;t all that different from being a regular celebrity. People with no knowledge of what you really do are constantly criticizing you, you spend most of your time on a private airplane, and you have a giant posse. If you&rsquo;re a famous person, you might as well run for president every four years.
