I am certainly not an Obama supporter or lover and I am already sick of him, but it is way too early to judge him. At the rate he is going, he may be one of the worst, if not the worst in my lifetime, but 3 years is a long way to go.

From what I have seen, our previous president took that title.
Of course everything is a matter of opinion, but do you remember a Pres by the name of Carter? I think his first name was Jimmy..

The fact that people already have their minds made up about this guy really speaks lengths about how irrational some people have gotten. If you dislike him, fine. But without even seeing full results of his policies and calling him by far the worst president ever is ignorance at its finest. Putting him ahead of Buchanon, Pierce, Hoover, Nixon, Bush, etc is dangerous and irrational. For the sake of all that's well, I hope the people who think like that are a very very very small minority.

I don't like Obama one bit however worst of all time...definitely not.
I was about to make a similar comment, even the historians are not saying Reagan was a bad Pres and in polls he is among the top of the top. Again, we all have our views, but when people get so biased because of their political views it shows really narrow mindedness.

my assumption is that you meant to type "worst" instead of "worse".

Default Translation: Obama is doing great!

Reading this ridiculous question makes me wonder. People today have the benefit of hindsight that is greater than anyone in history. Yet the critics of Obama easily possess the worst political judgment and instincts. You voted that village idiot in, so what makes anyone think that conservatives are capable of evaluating the job any president is doing, especially one they want to fail?

If you think Obama is doing badly, this means he's doing an exceptional job.

I had to vote "no" because it's too soon to tell if he will pass Jimmy Carter, the worst president in my lifetime.

I'm politically homeless. So I don't really know who the worst president may be but I do know this, if you take the letters of Obama and Bush, it comes out: Aha! A dumb snob.

I would have prefered Ralph Nader or Hillary Clinton as President, but it is still too early to judge Obama's presidency.

Too soon to tell...I hope for the sake of our country he's not!

As an old, fat ex-history teacher, I think he's got quite a ways to go to earn the title of Worst President Yet....
