Answer 2

i don't look after his regulations, yet what makes Obama the worst president ever is the indisputable fact that he does not make me proud to be an American. Ronald Reagan spoke so warmly on the subject of the USA. human beings listened to Ronald Reagan with delight. it is why there have been any such good sort of Reagan Democrats. No speech that Obama has given, different than his inaugural handle, places united statesa. in good gentle. He spends lots time pointing palms at George Bush and belittles his warring parties. many of the failings he says are below the Presidency.

Answer 3

In the 20th & 21st centuries, I would say there has probably not been even one trusworthy president. The Men I admire most in US history are Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, James Madison, Andrew Jackson & Abraham Lincoln(5 of them presidents). I would invite all who read this to do an in depth study of these great men, but most of you are too lazy, and think of them as part of ancient history. They were great men, because they were not obssessed with power or control. None of them amassed great wealth while serving the people of the United States, and all of them felt the constitution should be strictly adhered to during any type of crisis. They were all free men, who felt that freedom was a God given right, not something that is arbitrarily given by gov't. With the excepton of Washington, who made little or no comments on the issue, they all opposed a private central banking system, which is the ruin of all free nations and a part of the communist manifesto, along with a tax on labor. They believed that peace and prosperity was guaranteed as long as society was free. Most importantly, they all had common sense, which has been lacking in gov't for generations. If I must name the greatest president, I choose Jefferson, who swore an oath to liberty as the guiding principle of our land. He spoke about the fact that a nation in which the people are not free, is not worth defending. All of them opposed foreign alliances, and costly foreign wars.

The worst president ever?
Bush- Liar, murderer, traitor
Clinton- Liar, murderer, traitor
GHW Bush- Liar, murderer, traitor
Reagan- Liar, murderer, traitor
Carter...I'll leave Carter out. I've seen no solid evidence, that he was a traitor or a murderer, but he's under suspicion because nothing changed while he was in office.
Ford- Liar, Traitor, On the subversive Warren Commission
Nixon- Liar, murderer, traitor
Johnson- Liar, murderer, traitor
Kennedy was certainly a liar and a murderer, but the fact that he was murdered is good evidence against his being a traitor.
Eisenhower fought the good fight in WWII, but as president did little to stop the growth of secret gov't which subverts the constitution. His farewell speech should be examined. He issues a strong warning about secret gov't.
Truman- Murderer, signed the national security act and the UN charter which both amount to treason.
FDR- Found a way to drag America into a costly foreign war from which we've never recovered. Supervised the seizure of gold from the American people which has subsequently been lost to the Federal Reserve.
And Woodrow Wilson- signed the Federal Reserve Act, which has enslaved the American people with debt. His Secretary of State Philander Knox fraudulently announced the ratification of the 16th amendment, and the IRS was born. Dragged America into a costly foreign war.

If a bad president is measured by his level of deceit, the worst would have to be either Bush, Clinton, GHW Bush, Reagan, or Nixon. If the award is for incompetence, then either GW Bush, Woodrow Wilson or Zachary Taylor

Answer 4

Best: Teddy Roosevelt- protected the environment and increased public lands, broke up monopolies, made the navy powerful, protected workers. Also Truman and FDR.

Worst: Andrew Johnson, worked to undo all that Lincoln had done. Also, James Buchanan and Warren G. Harding.

Answer 5

Best: Woodrow Wilson The only president we ever had to hold a Phd.
He was thrown out of Europe when he told France and Britain that carving up the middle east with no consideration for culture and historical right was a mistake that would cause problems for years to come. Look where we are now. He also knew that it would be the US acting alone to right the wrong and be blamed for it.
He worked so hard on trying to build a community of Nations for peace, it killed him.

Worst:
John Kennedy: He started three wars, one of which was the longest in our history. Consorted with gangsters. Had more illicit sexual encounters in the oval office then Clinton did in his dreams. Filled the halls of government with relatives and show business freaks. Turned the CIA into a rogue organization full of disgruntled thugs. Ignored Martin Luther King, accelerating racial unrest and street riots in direct contradiction to his campaign promise. Ran on a ticket of government benevolence and on inaguration day said: "Ask not what your country can do for you......." Allowed the Russians to gain the advantage in space and strategically in Europe thus delaying the fall of communism by several decades. Tempted the Soviet Union with listening devices in Turkey and ended up with nuclear missles in Cuba nearly incinerating the planet.
He did all this and more in just 1000 days. Amazing.
If he didn't get shot there would not be a bunch of High Schools and an airport named after him.

Answer 6

Best: Teddy Roosevelt-broke up monopolies, was actually a good person, fought to help America stay strong and free.

Worst: Lincoln-destroyed civil rights to fight an unjust and unpopular war. Instituted the draft. Used military service as a way to give citizenship to familes of men he knew were being sent to their death. Issued Emancipation Proclamation to gain popularity, not because he cared about the issue (made a deal with border states that they could keep slaves if they wouldnt rebel). Stayed in the running despite knowing that his being elected would divide the country, he allowed it to happen. Slavery was a dying institution, he furthered his career with it, nothing more.
