I Think Nixon Was The Only Other Pres To Come Close

Other than Bush? Hmm... Ones that I remember are Nixon/Ford and Carter. I do like Carter as an ex-president though.

Jimmy Carter\n\nHas great taste in Baseball teams,but as commander in chief,one of,if not the worst ever.Hostage crisis,inflation,and a general unwillingness to lead.

That's what they'd like to do, alright. Bush is almost certainly the worst president since Nixon, but he's *their* worst president since Nixon.

Bush the Decider is the worst President America has ever had. I thought nobody could out do Nixon, and Bush the Decider is the one.

Depends on how you view worst. Nixon was corupt but did a lot good as well although its was his foreing policy that shined. His domestic agenda was lacking. Carter was benefactor of Nixon's crimes. Carter had no real skills to be President but American wanted an honest man in White House and that what we got. along with long lines at Gas pump and Americans held hostage for a year in Iran. So yes Carter would be on top of my list but I have to feel Bill Clinton was worse and I know many will disagree.

5%, Bush Jr., in a poll I just took from people I met on a bus stop. However, in a poll in a VFW rally I hear he got 99% approval. \n\nLesson: If you do not specify the source, the rating is meaningless.

George W. Bush.   He's worse than a roach and Kerry.

Obviously it is declining. George Bush has the lowest poll ratings since Nixon. Largest Deficits in history, No child left behind is a failed policy, Medicare is a disaster; Scandals involving his and Cheney's chief's of staff, Illegal wire taps, outing spies, cover-ups about war in Iraq; Gas prices $3.00 and predicted to get to $5.00 per gal.. I am a democrat, but do not involve myself in name-calling. FOX NEWS always puts there SPIN MACHINE into action, as to shed the best light on the issues, and blame Bill Clinton for many of GWB's problems. After 6 years of GWB's failing policies, too many mistakes have been made. The republicans are trying to get their mojo back, who knew they had it before? Bush is doing great for the late night comics, you can't make up this ridiculous stuff.

right, George W. Bush is one of the worst presidents the United States of America has ever had. But as they always say, people get what they deserve.

I agree with most of your comments.\n\nI agree that Truman was one of the best.  He, above all other things, accepted responisibility for his actions and wanted the President to be a man of unquestioned integrity.\n\nFor that reason, I believe the two Bushes to be the worst.  Neither has shown any desire to be a President that would make the American people proud.  All three of their combined terms have been marked by avoidance of responibility and the pursuit of personal interests over the good of the country.\n\nKennedy was overrated.  Didn't really do very many things well.  He relied almost completely on charisma.\n\nCarter was in way over his head and deserves to be among the worst, but has been a great ex-president.  I think he deserves some respect for his dipomacy and charity work since leaving office.\n\nRight on about Harding and Silent Cal.  I am torn on Clinton, although the country was relatively peace and prosperous during his tenure, I think much of the credit goes to Congress and gridlock rather than his own actions.  And he didn't have a strong sence of honour and integrity.\n\nI noticed you left off FDR and LBJ.  Both of whom were inexplicably popular.  FDR had good luck and charisma, JBL had bad luck and charisma.  I would put FDR on the best list, but not very high.  The circumstances surrounding his presidency would have made anyone look good.  Johnson belongs on the worst list in my opinion.  Although he did much good, he chose to sacrifice thousands of lives in Vietnam rather than make the unpopular decision to pull them out.

Bill Clinton lived and died for the polls.  I believe President Bush doesn't really care what the polls say.

Rarely do president care much about their approval rating during their second term (since the days of Harry S Truman).  They cannot be reelected again so what would they care?

George W. Bush - 43rd President of the US

Here's an odd answer:  For recent times I would say Reagan, Clinton, and our current president Bush.\n\nFor first two for communications, and the current for raw guts.
