Who are the 5 worst and 5 best Presidents in US history? Here are mine: 5 Best: 1.) George Washington 2.) Abraham Lincoln 3.) Franklin Roosevelt 4.) Teddy Roosevelt 5.) Dwight Eisenhower/ John F Kennedy 5 Worst: 1.) Donald Trump 2.) Richard Nixon 3.) Lyndon Baynes Johnson 4.) Warren G Harding 5.) Herbert Hoover/W.
It's a pretty interesting debate. There are some that would consider Lincoln among the worst. While there are some that consider him among the best. Guess it depends what state you grew up in and what you were exposed to.
LBJ worse than Andrew Jackson? Johnson was one of the more effective Presidents in US history, IMO. Jackson was an unapologetic racist and attempted genocide. I'd have Jackson as the worst President by a pretty wide margin.
Lol just to fuck with y’all Best: 1. Trump 2. Reagan 3. Washington 4. Lincoln 5. Teddy Honorable mention: JFK Worst: 1. Jackson 2. LBJ 3. FDR 4. Nixon 5. Dubya Honorable mention: Obama
Best: Lincoln FDR Washington Teddy Roosevelt Eisenhower Worst: Nixon Andrew Johnson Trump Hoover Lynden Johnson
Woodrow Wilson was the worst. Sold our country down the river to private interests in 1913 via the Federal Reserve.
Best: There have been none in my lifetime. And I won't speculate on presidents I didn't pay attention to in history... Worst: America's latest sellouts and traitors. Ronald Reagan George Bush Sr. Bill Clinton G.W. Bush Barrack Obama Donald Trump
I could agree with you except LBJ did some really good stuff. The voting rights act, civil rights laws were all passed with the help of Johnson's arm twisting in the Senate.
You must not have lived through it. JFK impacted me more than any other President in my lifetime. Well, actually LBJ did since he sent me to a war that crippled me for life. But JFK impacted me intellectually as well as emotionally. Having strong emotions coupled with an intellectual challenge is a very rare thing and should be cherished. Incidentally, I once shook hands with John F. Kennedy. It was at the Lloyd Center.
Yeah, Lanny, I started to ask minstrel how old he was because the years when Kennedy was POTUS was a VERY scary time in our country's history and like you alluded to, he may not have experienced the same things as you an I. Yeah, he had his personal faults and the Bay of Pigs was a disaster. But JFK was loved by his country and was a great speaker and a great leader, IMO. The missile crisis and his stand on civil rights were his defining moments.
