This article, based on four presidential tracking studies by academics conducted over a 20‐year period, seeks, through analysis of those studies, to answer five questions: 1. Is there any correlation between views held about a president early in his term/s or immediately after his term ends, and those held much later? 2. Is there a pattern to such rankings as they change over time? 3. Can we explain why change occurs? 4. Can actions taken by a president after he has left office significantly alter his ranking? 5. When might the process of change be, to all intents and purposes, complete? Is there, for example, a 25‐year rule? 50?
