I don’t know why I feel the need to correct a FReeper every time I see an incorrect reply as to the worst presidents.
But I do.
I often see people who totally forgot Lyndon Johnson was president. He’s in the top 3 with Bammie and Biden. Not Carter.
Carter hardly makes the top 10 list.
Well, I guess that is what makes a horse race.
LBJ was certainly terrible, so I can’t fault your reasoning.
But like arguing whether cancer or Alzheimer’s is a worse way to go. Valid points all around.
What’s interesting about those “worst president” lists is that hardly any conservative agrees with any other conservative when it comes to a complete list.
My bottom three, in no particular order: Wilson, LBJ, and Bush II.
Bush II makes the list because he had a once in a millennium chance to crush radical Islam. But instead he told us “Islam is peace”. Then he went and started a bloody and unnecessary war in Iraq. That upset the whole applecart in the region.
Anyway, yeah. Carter is not on my list.
And who would have thought the best president since Reagan (other than Trump) was Bill Clinton? Certainly better than Bammy and the Shrubs. Not that he was great, what with the state secrets to China and all.
I vote for FDR. He put the gas in the Socialist machine.
