Say John, my perfectly sane and rational fellow conservative, who would you put forward as America's absolute worst president? BTW, how do you feel about slavery?

Lincoln, no doubt. Without his wholesale corruption of America's political insitutions and republican form of government, I doubt FDR would ever have been President, let alone the Federal Reserve, which caused the depression, formed in the early 20th Century with out Lincoln's War.

Slavery is a destrcutive influence on civil society (though slavery or indentured servitude allowed my ancestors to be on the first boat out of merry old England in 1620.) Those who made money off slavery, be it Rhode Island or Boston banks and insurance houses, or the actual sellers and abusers are likely still doing their time in purgatory or worse.

What do you think about abortion?
