I'd probably say so.

Interested to hear what others think.

Not the worst, but top 5 worst.

His golf game is good though. Nice to see him working on his stroke today in Honolulu.

I agree but Jimmy Carter has the Iran Embassy and hostages fiasco, not to mention high sky interest rates and high unemployment. So I guess it's a balance as to what was worse. 7500 Americans dead though is tough to beat.

Bush was bad, Obama just took it to another level of terrible. All that debt he ran up, Obama. But statistics show, percentage wise.. blacks run up most debt, so not suprising that the first black prez, would run up debt more than everyone else combined.

He reminds me of Bush jr. His first 4 years were average, but his last couple years were just embarrassing.

Obama will have his place in history for being the first black president. His presidency will be defined by his race unfortunately. White guilt isn't going anywhere until whites become absolute minorities in this country, which means anyone that says bad things about Barry will be labeled a racist for a long lime to come. This alone will keep him in the average category unlike Bush jr.

I think the Dems will have a crazy love affair with Barry after a few presidencies just like Republicans did with Reagan, but 50 years from now people will view Obama as one of the key ingredients to the downfall of America. The Millennials that like him now will despise him in their golden years that undoubtedly won't be so golden.

No. It's common at the end of two-term Presidents for many people to be tired of the status quo. Right-leaning people thought Bill Clinton was the worst President ever back in 2000, but in hindsight most people don't look back at the '90s as being so bad. Left-leaning people thought Bush was the worst President ever, and I believe he is very close to the worst but there have been worse, such as Buchanan.

I think Obama will be judged in the top tier, especially considering his domestic successes.
