Rankings, ratings, polls and survey depend on so many variables that rarely does a list remain consistent over time. Time often softens the opinions and often makes scholars more forgiving. Most lists are headed by Washington, Lincoln and FDR and even this ranking shows variation among the best and the brightest. When it comes to the bottom tier, Harrison, Andrew Johnson, Pierce and Buchanan score very low among scholars while non-historians ofted choose Nixon or George W. Bush. Nixon is usually placed near the bottom by academics, somewhere between 30 and 35th.

what were ford pardon Nixon advantages and disadvantages?

In brief; The advantage was that it drew a line under Watergate and as such allowed the country to move on from what was a 3rd rate burglary blown entirely out of proportion to which Richard Nixon did not have any involvement or knowledge of prior to the incident. The disadvantage was that it completely discredited Gerald Ford as a strong leader and ultimately achieved a very limp presidency which worsened under a weaker president, undoing much of the good work Nixon had achieved, in Jimmy Carter.

Why did Richard Nixon replace the gold standard with fiat currency in the early 1970's?

Richard Nixon replaced the gold standard with fiat currency in the early 1970s primarily to address economic challenges, including inflation and a balance of payments crisis. The fixed exchange rate system was becoming unsustainable as countries began redeeming their dollars for gold, depleting U.S. gold reserves. By transitioning to a fiat currency system, Nixon aimed to provide greater flexibility for monetary policy and stabilize the economy without the constraints of gold-backed currency. This move ultimately allowed for more control over inflation and economic growth.
