He is the worst in my lifetime, and by far the most divisive.
...but you can't identify anything that makes him the worst.

Being a leader?
How about we look at the resume of the administration....
Certainly not popularity; popular Presidents have become no more memorable for their accomplishments than unpopular Presidents.
Controversy makes no difference either. Some of the most controversial Presidents accomplished great things in their terms, while others are only remembered for their controversy.
Party leadership is a mixed bag. Some highly partisan Presidents have been very effective, while others have abandoned the party that raised them up for the other one. Some weakly partisan Presidents became party champions once in office, while others who were prominent watched their party leadership evaporate as President.
But leading the nation is what makes a President either good or bad in the eyes of history. Leadership is a very rare ability; some Presidents come to the office with deeply held beliefs about what is good for the nation as a whole, and have the personal qualities to see those beliefs are made real.
Other Presidents may not have such deep personal beliefs going in or coming out, but they possess other qualities, like a good gut instinct, quick decisiveness, and a willingness for action instead of contemplation.
Still others are effective because they are contemplative, and are slow to react. Cool hands on the wheel in a big storm.
And the fact is, no one ever knows what a President will become. The job changes widely continuously, and it's all on the job training for them all. And they all only get a few shots at doing things right that lasts in the long run. With every one of them, their shortcomings will be remembered just as vividly as their triumphs.
half of us will always disagree as to what were failures and what were victories. All leave with a mixture of both.
No. He isn't a great President, but he is far from the worst. US Grant, Truman, LBJ were worse. Carter was about equally bad. Ford was a bust. GW Bush is right there with Obama.
I've never heard Ford make the worst list...wondering why?
I am sure this question has been asked before but it just seems that everything this president does works against that very thing that made the United States the best country in the world period. Now with dropping the ball on Ebola, elimination of massive amounts of jobs, doing nothing to help the middle class in reality, we will most likely fall into the absolute worst recession or depression sometime soon in 2015, printing of money, open U.S borders, our future social security checks will be eaten by welfare, the ongoing war and the list continues, what was left in manufacturing has been chased out to Canada and alike. I cannot leave out the division that has been created as well over the last 6 years making everything about race or equality. Just imagine of there is an amnesty, far fewer Americans will have work.
Nothing is looking on the bright side.
I know there are those leftist warriors that will continue to stand behind this administration all the way to the end, but at the same there are a ton of democrats that have left the extreme left this administration has brought them.
Will this be named the worst ever presidency?
Without a doubt the most incompetent and unqualified President to ever grace office.
I suspect that he will be known for turning the United States into a 3rd world country and destroying the status of the United States through-out the world.

Did any of the other bad presidents named here have the mindless cult following like O does?
Things have gotten so bad, the fact that they keep defending him and don't just cut their losses now and start getting behind Hillary is outright bizarre (and rather frightening).

Hillary Clinton is a dishonest, warmongering AIPAC stooge. Keeping her and her cornpoke husband out of power is one thing for which all Americans should be grateful to Obama.

The media has never been in the pocket of the administration like this before. The vast majority of people do not spend the time needed to I stand current events beyond what is played on the local evening news.

Actually, I'm more concerned about the blind hatred that many have. The OP claims that he "Destroyed millions of jobs". This is simply, objectively, false. No question about it. In fact, that's the reality of the GWB presidency (although, yet again, the president does not fully control the economy, and there were plenty of other players in causing the Great Recession). The entire OP actually seems to be wild-eyed nonsense.
Will Obama be named the worst president in U.S history
Uhhhh... you mean, again? Continuously?
