Perhaps you need to adopt a "No Presidents Left Behind" Policy :-)

http://www.avantnews.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=328

Here's an excerpt:
"
A key provision of No President Left Behind is the requirement that the 
office of the presidency develop a collection of assessments, policy success 
rates, and other indicators on which presidential performance can be judged. 
Presidents will be required to meet Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) levels 
across the range of indicators, cross-referenced with goals as announced in 
campaign appearances, State of the Union speeches, and other public events.

Presidents who fail to meet AYP levels, to be externally assessed though a 
rigorous NPLB annual testing program, are considered to have "fallen short", 
which then qualifies the failing president for additional assistance in the 
form of better advisors, better policies, and, in extreme cases, remedial 
education.
