11. When I was a kid

Arnold's name literally meant traitor...even before I knew who he was. I do think he gets a bit of a bum rap (he often wasn't given his due credit, so his turning is understandable, even if still villain worthy), but there's no question he went over to the British and nearly gave away our most crucial defensive fort in the northeast. At at a precarious time for our nation.

I can't believe he's so low.
