I was going to say either Andrew Jackson or Grant. The Indian Wars (genocide).
For all the people giving Clinton the votes, did you forget how great the country was doing in the 90s already? I mean with all the jobs and having money to spend. Yeah he sucked!!

Definitely Jimmy Carter. When Carter took office in 1977, he received a moderately growing economy in which inflation was 5.4 percent and interest rates were around 8 percent. When he left office, the Soviets were entrenched in Afghanistan, Iranian students had been holding US State Department personnel and US Marines hostage for 444 days, the American military had been gutted by the administration's post-Vietnam cutbacks, American prestige was in tatters abroad and inflation was in the double digits and interest rates were so high it was impossible for Americans to finance large purchases like homes and cars. Carter's administration is without a doubt the worst in modern American history, yet Carter himself blamed his failures on a "national malaise". This "malaise" kept his Democratic party out of power for 12 years; even today it wrestles to free itself from Carter's legacy.

Most presidential scholars agree it was James Buchanan who - like Bush - didn't have sense enough to know how to tie his shoes. Since Buchanan served in the mid-1800's, it was a few years before my time, so we have to take the historian's words for it.

that's difficult to guage... i do not understand sufficient about each president to truly decide... i wager the worst president in my lifetime (1994-now) will be George W. Bush, possibly Barack Obama, besides the indisputable fact that that is somewhat to early to guage his prevalent performance...

I think good ole boy Jimmy Carter was way up at the top of the list. And no, I don't think GWB is a bad president, despite what the liberal media would have us think.

FDR kept us in the Great Depression for 8 years (1933-1941), ignored our allies while they were conqured by Germany (1939-1941), and began the Entitlement Mentality that is destroying our nation today (New Deal, welfare, social security, big government).
Jimmy Carter surrendered to terrorists in Iran (1979), and destroyed our economy (1977-1981).
Sad that we don't teach history anymore, or we could learn from it.

Carter - stagflation AND letting hostages be held in Iran for more than a week. WEAK, WEAK, WEAK!
Sure the Nobel folks gave him the peace prize. They gave it to Arafat too, who was, to the end supporting terrorism covertly.

After living through the Carter disaster and the Clinton debacle, I think President Bush is a damn fine president.

Reagen, he did nothing to prevent the spread of aids in this country when outbreaks first began because he thought it to be a gay disease.
