Its pretty hard to judge a president that is sitting, as there are still things they can frick up.
But Iraq was probably the worst FP disaster since the bay of pigs, but maybe even worse than that. We are going to be there for another 10 years in some way shape or form cleaning up shite.
It pushes bush to the top.
If iraq was not in play, definitely obama.

Born in 1988. Barry Obama by a very wide margin.

Kennedy cut taxes, just like Regan did later, and our economy boomed, look it up on youtube.
Kennedy wasn't this new liberal screwball / anti business mind set which the liberals have become.
Anyone who says Obama isn't the worst president is just lying and ashamed of beinb seen as the idiot they are.

My choices being:
George H. W. Bush (raised taxes after saying no taxes, Gulf War)
William S. Clinton (Bosnia, let Bin Laden go, failed healthcare reform, balanced budget, Welfare reform, economic expansion, started the housing crisis)
George W. Bush (9/11, Patriot Act, War in Iraq, War in Afghanistan, Katrina, Medicare Part D, No Child Left Behind, TARP, Auto-Bailouts, Stimulus 1)
Barack H. Obama (Fast and Furious, more bailouts, stimulus 2, Cash for Clunkers, IRS scandal, VA scandal, AP scandal, NSA scandal, Moratorium, B.P. oil spill, Ebola, Affordable Care Act, ect.)
Wow...what a shite show to choose from.
Looks like the rankings would be from best to worst:
Clinton (did good and bad)
Bush 1 (did neither good nor bad)
Bush 2 (did mostly bad)
Obama (did damn near all bad)

I think you're a moron for even asking the question.

I've seen this sentiment expressed here before and it makes me uncomfortable. The next black president will have very little or nothing to do with Obama and his failures. I have to believe the majority of the public will recognize this.

As you resort to personal attacks. Color me shocked.

True. There are a number of black men, don't have any black women in mind at the moment, I would vote for in a heartbeat. None resemble obama in the slightest and none would carry his scent of failure.

Might have something to do with increased revenue after the crash of '08 and the Budget Sequester Deal of 2011 which both sides took credit for when it passed and both sides blamed the other in 2012.
See the little red columns show revenue reductions after the Bush tax cuts then the huge drop off after the crash of 88? Then you see the blue line increase with the stimulus package which actually wasn't much more as a percentage of the GDP then the increase under Reagan. Then you see increased revenue under Obama when the economy recovered and less spending due tot he budget sequester deal of 2011.

Nothing major, really.

Actually, its because between 2009-2012 we ran the highest annual deficits in U.S. history. Our 2013 and 2014 are still in the Top 10 for highest annual deficits since WWII. 2009-2012 was just so egregious that our out-of-control current deficit looks great in comparison.

wtf ? You realize the Gulf War is a text book example of how to run a military campaign and was pretty widely supported? Would you rather Iraq have invaded and annexed one of our major allies in the region?
Or are you just naming the major events associated with each president, in which case I misunderstood?

Gulf War was legit, it just should have been the end of our involvement there, barring another invasion or open conflict like the one we stopped.
