Name your least favorite president...?

Question

...explain what character traits & policies of his make him your least favorite.

Answer 1

FDR, the only reason people remember him in a good light is because WW2 happened.....he actually prolonged the Great Depression with his programs, and his programs began America's dependence on the government, which began governments encroachment into our private lives. Oh, and I'm related to him too. Just my luck......Jimmy Carter runs a close second, just for sheer stupidity.

Answer 2

Jimmy Carter. He plunged our economy into super-inflation. Home loans were in double digit interest rates. Personal loans and auto loans were way past 20 percent. Iranian nutcases took our embassy hostage and Carter didn't do what we should've done 30 years ago: INVADE IRAN!

Instead, the Ayatollah turned Carter into his byatch and refused to release the hostages until Reagen took office. Probably because the Ayatollah knew Ronnie would simply nuke Tehran and ask questions later.

Then Carter gave away the Panama Canal.

The only thing Carter did right, as far as I'm concerned, was get the Egyptians and the Israelis to sign the Camp David Accords.

Frankly, I think that was more the handiwork of others than Carter, but he gets the credit.

But on the negative side, Carter's family embarrassed him and the nation. Like remember Billy Carter? Billy beer?

What a mess!

I am so freakin glad Carter was a 1 term president! If he had gone any farther the economy would've been so tanked we'd be in a depression till today.

Answer 3

James Garfield was my least favorite. He was a preacher (although not a minister - then you didn't have to be a minister to be a preacher) and he cheated on his wife and was an extremely skeeming individual. He did nothing while in office and then was assasinated. He was a compromise candidate picked over James G. Blaine and John T. Sherman who was picked by the Republicans after he gave a speech in favor of Blaine. He defeated Hancock, who blunted Pickets charge at Gettysburge, by .1 percent of the vote, winning the election by his strategy of not saying anything.
I'm surprised nobody picked William Henry Harrison - he made his name killing Native Americans, ran a "log cabin" and "hard cider" campaign when he was extremely rich, and then died in thirty days after giving an hour and fourty minute inaugural, the longest ever, without a coat, leading him to get sick. Maybe he is somewhat of a curiosity however rather than someone who inspires hatred from one side or the other like Clinton or Bush.

Don't care lots for Reagan, Bush Jr., Obama and Johnson.

Answer 6

Jimmy "Commy" Carter

This whole mess in the middle east for the last twenty years was due to him abandoning our ally in that area and making a pact against Israel. He would not assist the Shaw of Iran when the UN and other radical Islamic extremists went after him. He then tried to unite the Arab countries by making peace between Egypt and Syria. Last he tried to unite them against Israel. Thank GOD his first term ran out and was not re-elected. Here we are today fighting a war caused by his hatred for Israel and the US.

I used to work for the federal government, Social Security Administration, during the Clinton regime. It was the most racist environment that I had ever experienced. I know that he is just a populist bubble head, but racism-albeit popular-should had never been tolerated.
