I like to start it with the War of 1812.
War of 1812 -> Battle of New Orleans -> Andrew Jackson becomes war hero -> Jackson runs for president, is robbed of it, forms Democratic party -> Very popular during terms -> After the Whig Party lost influence even though it won the White House, James K. Polk became president -> Conquered more land -> A lot of land was above Missouri Compromise -> Too much land to sustain it half free, half slave -> Whole series of events that attempt to alleviate slavery issue -> Civil War -> 13th Amendment.

Also, I've came up with some possible campaign slogans for 2056:
"Death to America"
"We love death"
"MAGA - Make America Go Away"
"Hail Satan"
"We bleed just to know we're alive"
"Death to America and capitalism"
"Juche gang, Juche gang, Juche gang, Juche gang
Juche gang, Juche gang, Juche gang (Juche gang!)"
Let me know what you think.
How about if we run against Trump's son, Make America Great Again?
For Apples. For North Korea.
Red government isn't always a bad thing.
While (political opponent) is Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzing, we're Redding up.
A term or two with Red and Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz or most of your money back.
Better Red than Dead.

It's funny because some of them aren't actually American Presidents. Those who are are arranged in the correct order though.
I agree with much else. But why is Garfield higher than FDR and Lincoln?
Because the only bad thing that happened in his Presidency was the fact that he got assassinated. If he had served just two terms (let alone FDR's four terms), he would have accomplished greater than they did. In terms of accomplishment, FDR and Lincoln were obviously greatest, but Garfield the best due to consideration of the circumstances. It is hard to accomplish that much when you are dead from assassination.

I can actually remember something like that in regards to the video you sent me about Polk. However, is an indirect accomplishment something that should be credited? In an alternate timeline, where a man (let's call him Boris) kills the infant Adolf Hitler, and Boris is not a time traveler and just thinks that Hitler is a normal baby, should we praise Boris for stopping the holocaust? Even if Boris is just somebody who loves to kill babies and would be happy to enact a holocaust himself if he was intelligent enough to? Likewise, should we praise Polk for indirectly leading up to the abolition of slavery when he was pro-slavery himself?

I'm torn between "Death to America" and "For Apples. For North Korea.". Both are easy to remember and sum up our platform perfectly.
