And thankfully, he's no Reagan either. He didn't cut and run from Lebanon, he didn't raise taxes on corporations, he didn't give us O'Connor and Kennedy on the USSC either.
And, oh yes, he didn't grant amnesty to illegals with no qualifications at all.
I'd say I'm pretty thankful for President Bush.

LBJ Doesn't get enough 'credit' for the complete failure of his presidency and the long lasting negative effect on the country. Hell, the illegal immigration problem we have now can be directly pointed back at him..

Apart from bungling the border issue, GWB at least has sought to defend America. Carter and Clinton weakened us.
In any case, this poll's margin of error is plus or minus irrelevancy.

What, no Gerald Ford? The musical achievements on his watch are by themselves enough to put him in the top five:
THE TOP FIVE
Week of September 18, 1976
1. Play That Funky Music
Wild Cherry
2. (Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty
K.C. & The Sunshine Band

Mr. Bush was ranked worst by 56 percent of Democrats and 35 percent of independent voters but only 7 percent of Republicans.
so, all you FR math majors, how much were the RATS oversampled...if Pres. Bush was rated worst by 37% ?

LBJ - I would agree, but without Roosevelt laying the ground work, LBJ would not have been able to do as much harm as he did. Perhaps we can have a three way tie, Roosevelt/LBJ/Carter (or four way if you want to include Clinton).
To: Sub-Driver
Too much American Idol... and a pi$$-poor knowledge of history can only explain this pathetic, display of ignorance.

21 1/2 percent. We financed a large piece of mining equipment in 1979 at this rate, thanks to this fool.

Outside of possibly of Ike and Nixon, Ronaldus Magnus DOES NOT merit being included with any of the other scum listed here, present President included!
He is the best. Period.

Let's see. Reagan is remembered for phrases like "Shining city on the hill," "Mr. Gorbachev tear down this wall," or "The Evil Empire." So far W will be remembered for "Doing the work Americans won't do," "Addicted to oil," or "Islam is the religion of peace." Some real cheap shots there. OK I'll admit Bush is no Reagan.
1) When inflation is considered, Reagan's budgets spent more %-wise on spending than Bush's.
2) Reagan signed into law tax increases, amnesty for illegals, and supported the Brady bill and signed the treaty that banned Freon.
3) Reagan cut and ran in Lebannon when terrorsts killed 240 marines.
4) Reagan accomplished little to nothing in the area of preventing abortions.
5) Reagan appointed O'Connor and Kennedy to the Supreme Court.
6) With respect to taxes, Reagan cut them once, and raised them twice.
Both Reagan and Bush faced many challenges and I think they will both be shown to be excellent Presidents even when considering ALL cheap shots.

Neither Truman nor Kennedy, any Kennedy, gets this boomers vote. And, if Bush were running again, neither would he. I am fed up with his inaction on the borders and big spending.

Well put. Astonishing how the man who was definitely, without question going to bring us World War 3 is now considered the best.

Did any of the geniuses that responded to this poll know that Eisenhower was President? There are very few greats, like Reagan. Most American presidents are just taking up space. Then there are the disasters (LBJ, Nixon, Carter). Clinton was criminally negligent and his incompetence led to the 9-11 attack. If he had been in the Oval Office in 1940, does anyone doubt that the Nazis would have crossed the Atlantic? Does anyone doubt that the terrorist attacks would have continued under Pres. Gore?
FDR lied us into the war. Thank Heaven!

If most Democrats think he's the worst - that puts him pretty high on my list.
