Obama was worse than Carter. Obama was also the first president to never have one year of 3% GDP. The first EVER! And he had 8 chances.
I already posted the facts about the educated and successful Obamas. It started way before they entered the White House. If you look you will find it. If you don't, you won't find it

You can post facts about how Obama is worse than Carter or our current administration. Your opinion isn't facts. It's baseless. So far no facts just opinion and the usual rhetoric.

If we count the first fails of our current adminstration, the list would be long. It's only been 2 years.

I didnt read 14 pages of replies, so I mighthave missed this. I did read Gallups methodology.

Nowhere could I find what % of Dems were in the 1,000+ sample, and what % Republicans, and what % of Independents.

Without that, this is bogus. What if 60% of the 1,000+ polled were Dems, 10% idependents, and 30% Repubublicans?

I found it. Yes, it started WAY before he entered the White House.

This Gallup poll has been around for decades, I don't see a breakdown but that doesn't mean its slanted. Its a random poll and not surprising that Trump isn't in the top 10, history will not treat him kindly. But as usual the poll must be wrong, how could this be?


Even the Dalai Lama beat him out.


Quote:
The remainder of the top 10 most admired men this year includes former President George W. Bush, Pope Francis, Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, former President Bill Clinton, the Dalai Lama, former Vice President Joe Biden, Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Vice President Mike Pence.


The top 10 list this year is notable for the absence of two men who often ranked high but who passed away in 2018, Sen. John McCain and the Rev. Billy Graham. McCain finished in the top 10 six times, while Graham had more top 10 finishes than any man or woman, a record 61 times. Graham was in the top 10 every year from 1955 through 2017, with the exception of 1962. Graham never finished first, but he was second eight times, most recently in 1999.


Ronald Reagan has the second most top 10 finishes behind Graham, with 31, followed by Jimmy Carter (28), Pope John Paul II (27) and Bill Clinton, whose appearance this year is his 26th. Clinton did not finish among the top 10 in 2017, but did so every year between 1992 and 2016.

I didn’t bash her at all. I stated a fact, did I not?

You don’t think they married for love, do you??

Michelle Obama actually has an education and worked as an attorney at a law firm. She didn't marry a rich man to climb to the top. She wrote a book that is the best selling book of the year and she is on a successful book tour. She is a former first lady many can relate to more than what we currently have. I speak for more Americans on the Obamas success than Individual 1 supporters.

Obviously, Individual 1 supporters have nothing on Treasonous Trump's family success except Mueller indictments, lawsuits, daddy money/business, bone spurs, centerfolds, and investigations.

I agree. The Obama's set a shining example to all Americans on how to be successful moochers. 8 years and they did nothing but party at the White House and globetrot all around the planet while sucking the public tit dry.

Trump's head must be exploding now since he loves polls so much.
