The statement was only made available online as part of the full interview on “60 Minutes Overtime.”
According to a transcript posted on the “60 Minutes” website, Obama said he would hold his accomplishments so far as president against those of Lyndon B. Johnson, Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln.
“I would put our legislative and foreign policy accomplishments in our first two years against any president — with the possible exceptions of Johnson, F.D.R., and Lincoln — just in terms of what we’ve gotten done in modern history,” Obama told CBS’s Steve Kroft.

What a pompous ____!
And once again Obama proves how ignorant and dumb he really is. No one thinks he has done a good job as President, his approval rating is at an all time low. He was just smashed by Matt Damon in a recent magazine article and now he claims he is the fourth best president .......he neglected to remember George Washington as well, just the first President on the United States. But he probably doesn't remember him because he isnt from here.
actually hes number 1, if you count from the bottom up
Good comment, 11:09. I think Obama needs to rate himself with Jimmy Carter, Warren Harding, and William H. Harrison, who lived only a month after his inauguration.
Obama is an arrogant a-hole!!!
Obama is surrounded by fools that keep telling him this stuff.
He really beleives it.
Just like extending unemployment creats jobs.
Now, if Ron Paul makes a statement on this he'll be a racist. And, why didn't CBS show this? They new it would piss off too many people because of his arrogance.
Seems to me the headline says something that not only stretches the truth about what Obama said but borders on an outright lie.
I would guess that while in office, every President things and believes he is doing a good job.
Only history will show how well of a job he does, but all in all, I feel as if, history will show him nearer to the bottom than the top.
President Obama is a record breaking president for sure..Responsible for record breaking debt, record breaking unemployment, record breaking fraud, and the list goes on. So Mr. President you keep up the good good work cause we all know in Liberal land, everyone is a winner. Fourth, really I believe you are being to modest sir.
.he neglected to remember George Washington as well, just the first President on the United States
No, he said he was better than Washington among others. Look at the video.
