Obama worst post WW II President

[Marshal Jim Duncan]

So say a plurality of respondents to the latest Quinnipiac U. Poll:
http://www.usatoday.com/story/theoval/2014/07/02/obama-george-w-bush-quinnipiac-poll-reagan-clinton/11985837/

45% think the country would've been better off if Romney would've won the election, to only 38% who continue to think Obama was the better choice.

He is by far and away the worst ever.

 

[pokemagain]

Jimma Carter set the gold standard for worse POTUS in the last 60 years but Barry has now taken that honor and it's not even close. Many dems will be pubically abandoning ship before Nov.

 

[Headhunter]

Radical with a smooth talkers persona. He's already proven he'll say anything to cover his true agenda and get what he wants.

He is an obviously incompetent manager but he doesn't care.

A lot of people are getting wise to the fact they were hood winked.

Question: How many of those respondents go back to Reagan or Carter. I'm 39 years old and I was 5 when Reagan became president. Everyone talks about how bad Carter was, and I've read some history on it, but someone my age simply has no real point of reference for anything more than the first Bush presidency. That means a total of 4 presidents (Bush Sr., Clinton, Bush Jr., and Obama). From that reference, its a no-brainer.

Not sure. It's a fair question. Reagan was rated the best by the most respondents, however.

 

[TPOKE]

How someone can put the welfare of his party over what's good for the country is beyond me. Creating dependency for votes is our ruin.

Carter was terrible but he doesn't get enough credit for a significant amount of deregulation that took place under his watch.

But he certainly gets credit for my 16 7/8% mortgage on a 70K condo!

Now that I have that one "out of my system", he's freakin' Mt. Rushmore material compared to this jack-off-idiot.

Jimmy was so much better than Obama it hurts.

 

[MegaPoke]

At this point I would take Bill Clinton for another two terms.

I despise Clinton but agree with you.

Very sad sad place to be.

 

[Headhunter]

You know things are horrible when you regret that Billary wasn't elected.

 

[gulfshorespoke]

It's interesting to see who isn't chiming in on this thread.

 

[poke2001]

They are busy looking at daily kos and huffpo trying to see what the talking points are.

I'd take Bill for 8 more years, but not Hillary.

I love the story -- of course, they didn't mention that EVERY president has a large "worst ever" rating when they're in office. But it's still fun to watch the right wingers run with it. During the previous administration watching polling was unpatriotic, unprincipled and something that good presidents didn't do or care about.

Interestingly, a majority of the people that voted him as the worst President consider he and Michelle still having all their own teeth as "arrogant."

Si. Flat out amazing that the current President, who walks on water and can do no wrong, is seen as less desirable than the racist redneck from Texas. Pure gold!

 

[wyomingosualum]

Well, to be fair, Jesus had a lower favorability rating in his second term, also. But he continued to heal people and stuff.

Barry is the worst ever and its not even close. Name one positive thing he has done? All you have is Bin Laden and that wasn't him. How you defend him is amazing to me as he has been beyond horrible. He surrounds himself with idiots and it is one bad decision after another.

Oh. Who was it then, Truman? Reagan?

Doesn't matter anyway Sys! That snake had already grown a new head. One could argue they are more dangerous now than when Bin Laden was alive.

Realistically if you take away the support Obama gets from the black community based soley on his skin color the numbers would be worse.
I will never understand why it's not a problem to blindly support a president because of his race but if you whole heartedly disagree with his policies and say as much, it must be racial animus.

 

[Headhunter]

What's funny is the only reason to hope President Obama can over come his incompetence and do something productive is because of his race. It would be a great American success story. Instead he's doing everything he can to earn the title of "worsrt ever".

Honest question: Given the amount of racial tensions and rhetoric that has been generated by the current WH, do true independent voters give a second thought to electing the next African American president? I'll be honest, one of my concerns with having Hillary elected is that every issue will become a "war on women" or "glass-ceiling" issue. These are real issues (just like some of the real racial challenges African-Americans face), but they get diminished when linked to every perceived slight or alternative position.

The "war on women" is a real issue?

What dong said. Please elaborate. Is there a front somewhere I'm supposed to be on, maybe a beachhead to take from those pesky women?

Probably should have rephrased. There are real issues of discrimination against women in today's society. However, I have real concern that every political dissent I have with our future president (sorry, the marijuana banking vote today proves that most Republicans refuse to accept societal change and that the nomination will likely reflect that) will be reflected as a "war on women".

[imprimis]

Five years after declaring the "war on women" the front line is in the White House with its still unequal pay for women.

Are there any real issues of discrimination against men in today's soceity?
