    I agree with Carter, but I don't yet agree with Obama. In my opinion if the administration doesn't change their direction Obama very well could be the worst ever, even worst than Carter.

    PS Davis kinda actually sucked in practice. There were many calling for his impeachment within a year of the Confederacy being established. Couldn't even hold secessionists together :lol

    wait i think i mixed that up. Now that I think about it, I think there were states that wished to secede from the Confederacy due to his rule.

    Still, the point remains, he couldnt hold them together

    Best: Reagan, Lincoln
    Worst: Carter, Hoover

    Obama sucks, but it's way too early to put him in the worst category. When you consider how many incompetent presidents there have been, he's got a lot of work to do.

    Coolidge= good president, without a doubt. Only thing I can really fault him for is choosing to not run for another term, resulting in Hoover.

    Did you respond to the poll? Oh wait, probably not, since it appears that you don't like Obama.

    Shouldn't you like know stuff about the individual before declaring them one of the worst of all time? Seems like a good strategy.

    :lol Yes, if I were seriously going to rank Presidents I would probably read stuff about them first. I'm no Presidential historian, though.

    Tyler was not a bad president and neither was Coolidge.

    I'd say the worst 5 are Grant, Harding, Buchanan, Hoover, and Andrew Johnson. In no particular order. I'd put William Henry Harrison close to this list, but he can't really be bad or good since he didn't do anything.

    Ever read Manhunt? Its about the search for Booth after he shot Lincoln. Amazing book.

    Anyway, his new book is about the hunt and trial of Jefferson Davis. Comes out in March. Cant wait.

    Buchanan and Harding were fucking disasters. Add Franklin Pierce to that list as well.

    This is the best list Ive seen, actually.

    Are you kidding me? He was awful. He switched parties to get into the Vice Presidency and then when he became president, he tried to jump back. He was a political opportunist and an opportunist alone who happened to get lucky.

    That doesn't make him a bad president. What gives him his spot as a bad, but not among the worst, president was because his partisan politics divided the country even more than it already was. Obviously eventually leading to the Civil War. I just can't see him being the worst when you have other presidents that more directly contributed to the onset of the war.

    The Civil War was a necessity, an eventuality. If the Nullification Crisis couldn't solve the secession problems, only secession itself would. Which it did. So I take less stock in making Buchanan the worst president because of a war which was destined to happen.

    John Hanson was the worst President of the United States.

    By Far.

    Even with that view, how is John Tyler the worst president.

    God made the Earth for humans to use as we see fit. That's in the Bible. And global warming was invented by hippies in the 60s, people.

    By Far.
    Even to assume Hanson was an actual president of the United States, he can't be the worst. He served in that position for only one year and had virtually no authority so he couldn't do anything wrong. If you have no negative effect or in this instance, no effect at all, you can't be the worst.

    The worst presidents have done significant detriment to this country and were not just placeholders in history.
