Mr. Beat tells the story of Herbert Hoover, a horrible President partially blamed for the Great Depression, but also a really great guy who was directly responsible for feeding millions of people.

Despite his mistakes reacting to the Depression, Hoover was only in office four short years. And while most historians view him as one of the worst Presidents in American history, those same historians often acknowledge he was an amazing humanitarian and the best Secretary of Commerce ever. He single handedly saved millions and millions of lives. How many Presidents can say that?
In my opinion, we should remember Hoover not just for being a crappy President, but for feeding the world.
The fact is, few human beings have EVER existed that had as positive of impact as Herbert Hoover.
