Was it W. Bush who won some poll for the worst usa president ever? have no idea, I don't like that guy...
I think that good president don't left things more fucked up than they were before his/hers term. But it's annoying when president basically haven't done anything.
And I'm too young (and forgetful) to remember anything before Mr. Clinton. And too ignorant about other ones, actually from the list "George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, Grant, Roosevelt, Wilson, Taft, Coolidge, other Roosevelt, Eisenhower, Reagan" I have only heard about Washington, Lincoln, Roosevelt and Reagan, but I still don't have any idea who they were except the fact that they all were president (that's sad...)
Something that I found after research (source: wikipedia, so this MUST be the truth) these are first things that popped into my eyes
Thomas Jefferson said that ownig a slave is immoral but he owned approximately over 650 slaves during his life time.
Woodrow Wilson took America into World War I and started to spread usa democracy to overseas w. w. w.
Dwight D. Eisenhower freeways and nuclear missiles... |

TJ- Louisiana purchase, and then kicked all those pirates' asses. Yeah bitch, step in line!
Wilson- Saved your European asses and then GAVE YOU AN ASSLOAD OF MONEY. I mean seriously. That's like saving a man fom a burning building and then giving him all the cash in your wallet.
Eisenhower-negotiated an end to the Korean war, help desegregate shit, ended the red scare, built a bunch of fuckin missiles, and funded NASA. Damn straight! |

I actually enjoyed Clinton. We had no debt, and there was peace. But I don't want Hillary to represent the democrats. There is NO WAY we could win with her. And I like Obama a lot better anyways.
--But Obama's gonna win anyways. 
Abe was pretty fucking awesome. Possibly the best president of the U.S. history. |

| I wouldn't be that sure...if the Democrats can't choose between Clinton and Obama McCain is going to profit from it, although I don't know if he could really win. |

| ^^ I can't understand people who are either with Clinton or Obama and have decided to switch to McCain if their nominee won't be the final candidate. But nobody talks here about McCaine expect his chance to win if Democrats continue fighting. |

Lincoln killed 400,000 + Americans, took away the privileges known here as rights, and his reasons for doing so are arguable.
Reagan also kinda let the whole AIDS thing get out of hand...
Was it Wilson who campaigned with the "He avoided war" slogan then went to war? Not exact words but something to that affect I believe.
People will always remember the bad no matter how much good is done. |

Actually... before the United States entered WWI, we loaned a ton of money to the allies along with sending them a lot of other aid such as weapons and food, so they actually owe us. This is one of the multiple reasons why the Great Depression was so devasting.
( I learned this in a history course I took at school) |

his current dis-approval rating is at 83% - so i think that pretty much counts as the worst president ever.
and i don't think mccain has a chance personally,
noone is even really focusing on him. it's all about obama and clinton at this point.
BUT you know, somehow, someway, bush managed to get elected twice, (how in the hell, we really don't know) so maybe mccain could shock us.
i'm rooting for obama personally. |

Of course we have to pay it back, America won't GIVE us money.
As for my favourite president...? I'm at this present moment trying to work out if my country has even had a decent prime minister... |
