LBJ for what he did to the American steel industry, The Immigration Act of 1965, implementing Medicare, the increases in Social Security, his changes to welfare which allowed many more to receive welfare and also started generational welfare, there are more but I think you get my point. He extended a lot of the entitlements of FDR and made them worse-that is why I chose him over FDR.
LOL, Carter.....I was raised by strongly Democratic parents, the first election I was able to vote in(1980) I voted for Reagan. Even as a twenty year old I could see what a complete flop he was, and how he made a mockery of our country, especially after bungling the whole Iran hostage thing so badly. There are plenty of Republicans I wouldnt vote for, but there are NO Democrats I could vote for, in good conscience. I think Carter poisoned a whole generation of potential Democratic voters. I have never been able to look at a Dem as anything other than a total clown ever since. Carter put the world "vacillation" into every adult's vocabulary. Truly, the WORST president ever. And even today he occasionally opens his pitifully stupid mouth, and manages to open up those old wounds, doing his party absolutly no good service at all.
That being said, I cant honestly say "W" has done me proud, but Carter is still the king of idiots. Carter..The original A$$ clown

It appears that a one-sided poll against the President is allowable. A similar-type poll in the exact same format as posted by the author (using him as the example) is reported as an attack. There was no intent to attack the author personally, but rather illustrate the biased nature of his poll. These types of threads rank up there with the "when did you quit beating your wife" questions.
I am all for serious debate. Hope we all learned something.
1. Responsible for involving America in WWI.
2. Responsible for the shaping of the Treaty of Versailles
3. Responsible for creating the League of Nations (ancestor of the U.N.)
4. Responsible for the creation of our criminal Federal Reserve System.
Basically, Woodrow Wilson started the trend of projecting American military power abroad for the putative purposes of spreading "democracy" and "freedom".
He was also one of the first American Presidents responsible for redefining the organic nation that was America into the multicultural pagan empire for "freedom" that we all know so well today.
harrison was the best president we have ever had. name 1 bad thing he did.

Honorable mention:
1841: William Harrison - contracted pneumonia during his inaguration speech and died after 30 days as President.

If you read the posts in the thread I think you would agree that there have been many great cases for other winners! I also did not allow anyone to see what others voted so not knowing what I voted you are attacking my poll? I do not much like "W" but there might be others who I thought did this country a worse favor!
