For me, Jimmy Carter's got that title.

I have to go with your choice as well,Jimmy was an abject failure as a President. In fact it is safe to say that we can trace many of todays problems squarely in his lap. Pretty much everything he did during his Presidency,and much of what he has supported since leaving the Presidency,have been policies that have almost all had adverse long term consequences for the US.

Carter might have been the most incompetent (certainly the most incompetent in recent history). I think FDR did the most damage. I'm not sure who was the most corrupt. Probably someone a long time ago, who I wouldn't know anything about.
Definitely not Clinton or George W. Bush, though. The people who pick one of them are only saying that because they're hysterical, or because they don't know anything about history.

It's easy to say the current president. But only if you don't study the past ones. I'd say Jimmy Carter too.
He allowed college students to hold our citizens hostage for over a year. His fiscal policy had high inflation and high unemployment together at the same time for the first and only time in our nation's history. We had to return to gasoline rationing. He allowed crime to increase to record levels.

Hey Strattz here yah go, allowed a bunch of Iranian students and upstarts to dictate our foreign policy, let OPEC bully us, and led us into the biggest recession since the FDR recession of 35.

A large number of modern historians will agree with you. The rest think it was Harding.
Personally I agree with you and W J Clinton comes in a close second.

Clinton and Carter are a tie but I dislike Clinton more.

HOW????? He broke even!!!!
Jimmy was way to honest to be President, that was his down fall...........
Out of all of them, and there have been some dandies, Jimmy is your worst, you need to sit down and read some history books and then make your conclusion!!!
G-man we now have a 9 trillion dollar debt, the government has been living on a credit card since Bush took over........You don't think we would be in a recession if the government actually PAID for the war, the tax cuts and everything else that this admin. has has bought on "credit"...
The national debt has rose 5 trillion dollars since 2000....The country will not go into a recession until some administration take on this massive debt that the Republican party has rung up and actually starts paying for it.........The administration is like a 16 year old kid at the mall with a credit card that he will be responsible for paying it off when he's 30 years old.........get a brain g-man
Bush planted the seeds for the largest "future" recession that this country has ever seen, It just won't happen on his watch.....g-man

George Bush...without a doubt. A complete mockery and embarrassment to the U.S. like none we've ever known.
