Bill Clinton! He cheated the American people out of eight years of leadership.

I appreciate that the Clintons were con artists... but do we have any more historical figures?

IMHO, the top of the list should be reserved for a group of bandits known as the Clintonistas. That gang did more to rob hard-working people, destroy the moralities of a nation, and set their nation up for future conflicts than any other band of gangsters in history.

I remember something from American History 101 in college. There is a very interesting character named Jay Gould who pulled off several notable scams.

Bill Clinton has lived off the taxpayers his entire life. His education was paid for by others. He never had a real job. He never owned a house. He came from rags to our White House as a millionaire with our furniture. He probably still claims a tax deduction for his used underwear.

James Rivas the "Baron of Arizona" forged a Spanish Land Grant (Even updating the original ledger in Spain).

The Land Grant gave ownership of virtually all of Arizona Territory (mid 1800) to Rivas' wife. The wife had been led to believe that she was from Spanish Royalty when in reality she was poor.

How could you forget Charles Ponzi, from which we get the phrase "Ponzi scheme"?
