Who Is The Worst President Since WWII?

[PoliticalChic]

I wonder what president before WWII was worse than Obama.

Isn't Buchanan considered the worst?

Yes. One of the worst, anyway. I think the criteria are different. Buchanan was a very unsuccessful president. Obama is consciously engaged in altering America.

Obama is worse.

I believe it was the deal Buchanan made with Taney that tipped the scales...

BTW...I've visited his home, Wheatland, and it was very lovely. Too bad he didn't stay there, and Fremont could have been #15.

 

[PoliticalChic]

Hahaha, the self fulfilling prophecy of the echo-chamber makes it's conclusion years before Obama completes his 2nd term.

I believe history will show the worst by far was President Bush (43). But I'll be dead and gone long before an accurate assessment can be made.

You've got to be a real dunce if you don't recognize this truth before you.

Raise your paw.

For Chester A. Arther...

1. Misspelled.

2. He was a crook...but our crook (NYC)

3. But he did put the first elevator in the White House


Jealous because out state has six, and you have..........

 

[KNB]

It's easy to know why Obama is the worst. Conservatives hate him because he's a Sharia Kenyan Marxist or whatever, and Progressives can't stand him because he's too much like Bush.

Accurate Assessment is code for Revisionist History.

You moron.

Are you actually this oblivious???


If so...how do you find your way back to that refrigerator box you call home??

 

[Freewill]

Clinton damaged the country more then any other so I vote for him being the worse with Obama then Carter.

Of course Reagan is head and shoulders above all of the presidents.

 

[elektra]

I like that people pick Bush, it shows how well the Media Propaganda campaign works on the less intelligent.

Worst President, how about Bill Clinton and Hillary, Hillary is definitely of the same marxist bent as Obama.
The Clintons allowed a flood of High Technology to be secretly given to China, The Clintons were also very active in saddling us with the extreme cost of Green/Renewable Energy that profits China, the Banks, and Corporations while extremely weakening our National Security.

The First Bush is also Extreme, he bailed out the S&L's which set the precedent for the Second Bush to run the same scam/ripoff with the Banks.

Further which President was in Command when we lost our industry to China? Had to be the 1st Bush and Clinton.

1. "Poll: Obama 'worst president' since World War II

2. In a new Quinnipiac University Poll, 33% named Barack Obama the worst president since World War II. Only 8% named Obama as the best president.

3. President Obama has topped predecessor George W. Bush in another poll, but not one he would like.

4. "Over the span of 69 years of American history and 12 presidencies, President Barack Obama finds himself with President George W. Bush at the bottom of the popularity barrel," said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll."

5. Just one more kick in the behind: guess who was picked, far and away, as the BEST PRESIDENT SINCE WWII????


"Ronald Reagan topped the poll as the best president since World War II, with 35%. He is followed by presidents Bill Clinton (18%) and John F. Kennedy (15%)."



His chickens....coming home.....to roost.

The poll is interesting. I just read it.

Quinnipiac is a good, solid polling organization that puts out good electoral polling data, pretty much right on target, so the results here don't seem tilted to me. But the title is deceptive.

You may now get off the floor, if that knocked you out of your seat.

However, it is a plurality and not a majority that think that Obama is the worst president since WWII.

Here is the poll:

National (US) Poll - July 2, 2014 - Obama Is First As Worst Presid | Quinnipiac University Connecticut

You are talking about question no. 36:

36. Which of these twelve presidents we have had since World War II would you consider the worst president: Harry Truman, Dwight Eisenhower, John Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George Bush Senior, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush or Barack Obama?

Obama 33
Bush (43) 28
Nixon 13
Carter 8
The other 8 presidents listed were at 3, 2 or 1%.

Margin: Obama +6

This also means that 67% of respondents do NOT think that Obama is the worst president since WWII and 72% have the same feelings about Bush.

So, the poll title is deceiving, a little bit. (Hey, they wanna make money too).

Not surprisingly, the majority of that number for Obama was driven by Republicans, and the majority of the number for Bush was driven by Democrats. You can see that by the internals that Qpiac publishes right next to the overall percentage values.


I remember seeing similar polls for Bush in 2006 and 2007. The stuff is interesting to see, if you are trying to market buyer's remorse, but the real mark of the Obama presidency will first be accurately felt in about 40 years, or two generations away from the current time horizon.

Isn't Buchanan considered the worst?

Yes, and Pierce, side by side, by historians. Of course historians rank Nixon lower than I would, Reagan higher. To each his own.

A distinction without a difference.


We are heading toward critical mass.

"Did you notice who was selected as the best by far?

Take a guess. "


Yeah I know. I disagree. That's when corporations started to run the whole show and the uber wealthy were given the keys to the country and the middle class was left out to hang. So I hold that against all those who governed in the 80's. I rank them low.

I do, too. I don't think Obama is down to 22% yet. And I don't think it will go there unless he continues to send troops and treasure to Iraq.

IMHO - The worst president since WW II was Richard Nixon

We are heading toward critical mass.

Actually, it is a very important distinction: about 1/3 of the country is Right-Wing and 1/3 of the poll respondents think that Obama is the worst president since WWII. Please notice that the question was asked without basing this on any criteria at all, just a feeling.

Again, this means that 2/3 of poll respondents do NOT think that Obama is the worst president since WWII, and even more than 2/3 say the same thing about former Pres. Bush (43). None of this surprises me at all.

In terms of using the bully pulpit to get congress to do what he wanted it to do and also as the only president to have actually had the CIA in grip, LBJ should be higher up on the list of our best presidents.

Truman was Bush 43's favorite president, Bush spoke fondly of Truman quite often while in office.

I personally think that Eisenhower is the best president we have had in the time period that Quinnipiac refers to. And for the immense damage he did to the office of the POTUS, I still think that Nixon wins the worst president of all time, hands down. But that's my opinion, just like the opinions of 1,466 RV, polled over a SEVEN day time period (that is very unusual), Moe = +/-2.6.

33% of 1,466 = 489 RV

So, based on the responses of 489 people out of 320,000,000 Americans...

That being said, a poll is supposed to be representative of the group as a whole and indeed, Qpiac has a pretty good rep, so it wouldn't surprise me if at least 30% of adults in the country feel this way - and virtually all of them would be Republicans or Right-Leaning Independents.

So, it is a distinction and it does make a difference.

Discernment, PC, discernment....





But thanks for starting the thread.

Reagan's approval rating went into the toilet with the Iran contra scandal in 1987. So once again, we're learning that things are best viewed in the rear view mirror, rather from PoliticalCluck's rear.

I have met a couple of the PoliticiChicks, are you one?

It is amazing it has taken this long on Polls, it was evident in first 2 years just about everything he did was a failure.

BTW Rasmussen Poll is totally inaccurate these days, if you look at RealPolitics site, like 10 percent off. Once Scott left it is a farce.

 

[francoHFW]

I'd say that's the 20% brainwashed Fox/Rush/Beck etc bots and the 13% total racists....NOT shocked.

Hard to say who's actually the worst, Nixon for wrecking American faith in gov't, Booosh for being a disastrous idiot in all possible ways, or Reagan for wrecking the nonrich and the country longterm with pander to the rich tax rates and shortsighted policy, or deregulating truth, giving us disgraceful propaganda bs like Fox, the Washington Times, talk radio, the Examiner, etc etc etc, and Reaganist hater dupe zombies...proud to be racist and hate the poor...see sig
