What do the balanced scorecard metrics not measure directly?

Grade Franklin Pierce’s Foreign Policy:Foreign policies include all legislation, political agendas, attitudes, and activities relating to the United States’ relations with other countries and international organizations. This area includes issues relating to diplomacy, statecraft, military and warfare, foreign trade and agreements, alliances with foreign powers, and activities relating to international organizations. Like domestic policies, this is a sweeping category and one that should be given considerable attention while grading your presidential report card

William Henry Harrison’s Legislative Success, Appointments, and the Executive Office of the President:In this area you will evaluate a president’s management of the executive office of the president (White House staff, advisors, aides, cabinet members, and federal agencies), the president’s level of success in terms of convincing congress to pass the president’s legislative agenda, and the quality of the president’s federal appointments (judicial and otherwise). While every president has an agenda, not every president is able to successfully guide their agenda items through congress; your job is to determine how well a president does that. This category considers the ability of presidents to surround themselves with quality people and their ability to assign judgeships and federal positions effectively.

Grade Andrew Jackson’s Integrity:Integrity refers to the president’s honesty, lack of corruption, and strong moral principles (or the opposite of these things). You will be asked to examine if the president had scandals, underhanded dealings, or if they misled the American people. Consider whether the president made decisions guided by a strong moral compass or if they committed extra-legal abuses of power. Evaluate how the president’s integrity affected the person’s ability to effectively run the country (for example, was a personal scandal a distraction? Did political corruption prevent effective governance? Did a commitment to integrity actually limit the president’s power?).

Grade Abraham Lincoln’s Non-Presidential Life:Many times, a president makes as much, if not more, of an impact outside of the White House than inside. In other cases, presidents have unremarkable public lives outside of the Oval Office. In this category, your job is to evaluate how much of an impact on America (positive, negative, or neutral) a president had both prior to and after assuming the presidency. Be sure to describe the president’s background, career, and accomplishments when evaluating their non-presidential contributions.

Grade James K. Polk’s Integrity:Integrity refers to the president’s honesty, lack of corruption, and strong moral principles (or the opposite of these things). You will be asked to examine if the president had scandals, underhanded dealings, or if they misled the American people. Consider whether the president made decisions guided by a strong moral compass or if they committed extra-legal abuses of power. Evaluate how the president’s integrity affected the person’s ability to effectively run the country (for example, was a personal scandal a distraction? Did political corruption prevent effective governance? Did a commitment to integrity actually limit the president’s power?).

William Henry Harrison’s Integrity:Integrity refers to the president’s honesty, lack of corruption, and strong moral principles (or the opposite of these things). You will be asked to examine if the president had scandals, underhanded dealings, or if they misled the American people. Consider whether the president made decisions guided by a strong moral compass or if they committed extra-legal abuses of power. Evaluate how the president’s integrity affected the person’s ability to effectively run the country (for example, was a personal scandal a distraction? Did political corruption prevent effective governance? Did a commitment to integrity actually limit the president’s power?).
