Who do you think is the worst President in American history? Oh, and the current President is not included in my rankings. I don't think it's fair to judge someone's legacy when they are still in office. A lot could still happen, and I advise waiting awhile after a Presidency is over to get a better perspective and more context.
My Dad was joking about Hoover once where he was talking about the Chicken in every pot campaign line and he said "Hell, at that point you were lucky if you had the pot." lol
@LASTICK5 wait didn’t he tell the proud boys to stand back and stand back. And if I’m not mistaken Isn’t their leader some Black Cuban and it’s just a grown up boys club that likes America??
Biden certainly makes the list, now. But, Obama should have been here, too. He came pretty close to accomplishing the same level of division and hatred that Lincoln did.
Oh. That’s kinda hurtful, I feel really sad :( I guess I’ll just ask my wife to read me a newspaper article in bed and hope I don’t have a stroke or something.
How did Andrew Jackson not make this list? Massacring indigenous people and ignoring the rules of democracy were kinda the things he was most passionate about.
Fully concur. Unfortunately the comprehensive breadth of human vocabulary is insufficient to describe how awful a president Andrew Jackson was. A sickly ferret would have done a better job in the oval office than Jackson - which is somewhat ironic due to their physical similarity.
AJ didn't "massacre" them while in office; He forcibly evicted them and made them relocate somewhere else, during which process a lot of them died tragically. It may be subtle difference, but "massacre" implies death in battle or some kind of mafioso free-for-all, which it wasn't. Now, what he did as a field commander and soldier before entering office as president is another story.
@@elagabalusrex390 I think this is a good point. It's like the difference between how the Nazis and Soviets killed people. Both definitely evil, but different levels of it.
And a racist - but Princeton named a part of the university in their name. And I think the first time a spouse of potus more likely than not in running the country. Education does not always means enlightened.
He also signed the Federal Reserve Act into law for which he was later repentant. The Fed has single handedly destroyed the economy of the USA and is probably the backer of all American war excursions since 1913. He set integration of blacks back so far that it took nearly 50 years to recover. He was a pawn of bankers and his election was bought and paid for by them. Read "The Creature of Jekyll Island" and get informed.
Add one more in stance where biden wh handlers cut the open feed on a q&a, on the matter of the debt. You think on transperancy biden could be even more of a hypocrite than obama? The contrats where with Trump perhaps tmi, and with biden, w/e the handlers want to dispense.
He was completely insane, from dueling anywhere from 13-300 people to beating would be assassins with a stick Andrew Jackson was without a doubt the most horrifying man elected president.
I've always hated Ragan. So many people aren't aware of how terrible he was. But I also probably hate Nixon equally as much. The war on drugs is one of the worst things to happen in modern America, and both of them played a huge part in it.
@@nelly3683 Absolutely. Other than the direct damage that it has caused, the "war on drugs" also helped shape the harmful drug culture we know today. The impact it's had is unfathomable, and I'm not sure how much of it was ignorance, and how much was intentional. Either way, most people on the right believe this is the only "correct" response. They think drug users are inherently immoral, and must be punished.

I grew up kinda sheltered from the realities of racism in our history, so when I read about Wilson's response to Birth of a Nation I was pissed. The film has its place in history as the first major blockbuster and in pioneering a lot of moviemaking techniques. But the worldview these talented filmmakers chose to use their gifts to present is sickening.
I watched it ONCE, and I love silent films. but NEVER this one again. There is *ONE* "fact" that came from this film which I will not point out (And it has NOTHING to do with the *AWFUL* KKK). Disgusting film that was a bad product of it's time.
@@dawsongranger4940Yeah, that's the worst part about it. It's an absolute masterpiece of film history and maybe the most influential film ever made, but it's message is truly disgusting to this very day.
Don't forget also: The original Civil Service was colorblind, but Wilson issued an Executive Order and got laws to segregate it. Going backwards on racial equality 50 years later, federally.
Obama, carter, johnson, clinton?? Not on your list??? Hmmmmmmm Thats weird..... almost seems like your a partisan liberal. Oh wait. Thats right. Now i get it! Hes a libtard!! And could one of you dummycrats explain what "cronie capitalism is? If you even know yourself which i foubt.......

HOW ABOUT A PRESIDENT THAT IS HALF BLACK AND HALF WHITE THAT SOMEHOW LEADS TO MORE RACIST RHETORIC RIGHT AFTER HE LEAVES OFFICE???????/ OBAMA IS THE ABSOLUTE WORST PREZ EVER. MIGHT AS WELL HAVE SUPPORTED RACISM (OH WAIT HE DID BY DENYING HE IS HALF WHITE)!!!!!!!!!
Your reasons for not liking George Bush are spot on. You named the exact list of mistakes he made perfectly. And I agree that he came across as a regular guy but he was a disaster.
I thought he was a great representative of the country which is a major part of being president. I think the VP and cabinet were questionable lol. But I am really tired of people saying the Iraq war was unjustified. The country was harboring known terrorist cells and led by a very aggressive anti-western regime who had the capabilities to obtain WMDs. Way too dangerous a time for America to turn its back on a threat like that
It was an interesting moment. William Jennings Bryan iis now usually thought of as a blowhard religious fanatic based on his prosecution in the Scopes trial. But he was Wilson's Secretary of State until Wilson entered WW I, when he resigned, publicly stating that Wilson had promised to keep us out of the war, and he (Bryan) couldn't betray that promise. The only other Secretary of State I can think of who resigned as a matter of principle was Cyrus Vance when Carter tried to get the diplomats out of Iran by military means.
Didn't FDR promise the exact same thing? Though since Japan attacked the United States first his declaration was absolutely necessary. It's unlikely that Britain and France would have been able to completely take out Germany by themselves in WW1. At least not in a land war.
@@timbowalk14 Dude the guy made the Great Society programs, and signed the Civil Rights Act, Lyndon was incredible although you are half right because he had the temper and of course Vietnam but Lyndon was the kinda cool Prezz

How did Andrew Jackson not make the list? Passage of the Indian Removal Act which led to the genocide of Native Americans on the trail of tears, he supported several Tariffs (1828, 1832, and 1833) as the primary means of paying down the national debt and you said you don't like Tariffs, Jackson was also both a slave owner and slave trader, and owned over 300 slaves throughout his life. He opposed Abolitionists mailing anti-slavery tracts through the US Postal Service.
Considering how important you view character in defining how bad somebody was as a President, I'm surprised Tyler's not on the list. He had such poor values that when he left office he became a traitor to the union and supported the cause of the Confederacy.
It was not as president though As president, he was actually not half bad 1. Peacefully resolved border disputes with Canada 2. Ended one of the bloodiest Native American wars in history, the Second Seminole War 3. Established vice presidential secession upon the death of a US president 4. Log Cabin bill 5. The first telegraph line in the United States is completed between Washington, D.C. and Baltimore. 6. Oversaw gains for the power for unions to unionize with the Supreme Court decision in Commonwealth v. Hunt 7. Florida became a state 8. Arranged for the annexation of Texas 9. Treaty of Wanghia 10. Handling of the Dorr Rebellion 11. Preemption Act of 1841 12. Bankruptcy Act of 1841 13. Panic of 1837 ended under him If we were to rate presidents based upon their time in office, bad presidents like Carter and Hoover would be rated at some of the best spots
@@person3070 i think texas annexation was bad because it helped set the stage for the Mexican American War. It did nothing to ease divisions and btw, Texas still had an unresolved border dispute with Mexico and these events led to the war. Hoover definitely deserves to be a below average president. Tyler did not end the Panic of 1837. It ended when he was president but with a poor economy until the late 1840’s.
I can understand a monarch saying "I'm not qualified for the position I inherited(nicholas II) but a POTUS (Warren Harding) saying I am not qualified for the position I competed to aquire" is a totally different thing!Y= you can't choose what you are born into but you most certainly can choose what you grab.
To be totally fair to Harding, he was drafted to run and more or less got swept into office because he was just so damned genial and popular. He left the hard work of campaigning to the Republican Party bosses. It doesn't really even feel right to call them "underlings" because he was mostly doing their bidding, not the other way around. Not sure how much of a redeeming factor this actually is but it's worth keeping in mind.
We just had a Secretary of State (Tolinson) that admitted that he didn't know what he was doing, a Postmaster General who is actively trying to destroy the post office so that his delivery service can prosper and a Secretary of Education working to destroy public education. Well, we also had a head of the NSA who was a Russian agent. And almost half of America want to bring them back.
I'm a bit surprised John Tyler didn't make this list. His own political party (Whig) expelled him, he was sorely disliked by most, and almost abused his veto power. His "my way or the highway " mentality didn't help his cause, either.
I remember in high school, my history teacher made a joke,,he said that 1920,was the first presidential election in which women could vote and in that election,the better looking of the two candidates won the election. He went on to say,he didn't think those two things were connected but it was just interesting. The girls in class were pissed
Bill Maher, said the same thing, but he said that in 1920, we elected Warren Harding, a handsome moron, but the thing that's happened since then, there's been no president with facial hair, usually but not always, the taller man has won, the only bald president has been Eisenhower, and that's probably because both times he ran against another bald guy who was shorter. The only 2 presidents since then who were under 5'10'' have been Truman at 5'9'' and he ran against a 5'7'' guy with a mustache and Jimmy Carter, who narrowly defeated a 6'1'' but bald guy
I think that physical appearance is a factor before women were voting, and influences men as well as women. Men as well as women have an idea of what the President is supposed to look like.
There’s actually an interesting video by Alternate History Hub about what would happen if he wasn’t elected and a lot of stuff like Hitler coming to power might of not happened
@@tantalus_pophagus2131 I mean.... I guess I see your point. But he was incredibly corrupt in his presidency. He filled the White House and cabinets with his friends and used the Presidency as a way to further his own agenda. Remember when he shut down the world bank and tried to outlaw paper money? Idk, some of the things he did as President was horrible. And he was a horrendously cruel slave master. So I dont respect him. It's hard to respect a person that wouldn't value my life ya know?
Eboni Love Thats why I said he was a bad person and maybe he’s a bad president but imo there’s worse presidents which is why he may not be on the top 10 worst list
I love the way you explain history. You're not AA "in your face" like others who share simular opinions. I've even started to look into your points & even started to see some things to your perception. You're (in my opinion) a great US citizen!😁👍 we need more like you.
I think that is a debate since Johnson helped Lincoln to end slavery. He was refusing to enact bad laws. Look at the carpet baggers after the civil war? They were Republicans from the north and robbed the south of the wealth that left the southern states as poor as it is today. He was against those plans because he knew what would happened once the northerners did what they did to the south.
It was Harding who said that it wasn't so much his enemies but his friends who kept him up walking the halls most nights. Well, gee, Mr. Harding, with friends like the ones you surrounded yourself with, who needs enemies?
Aguinaldo sold us out anyway. With or without McKinley or American intervention, we're bound to be conquered by another world superpower for influence.
Andrew Jackson was a war hero and killed off the Central Bank. One can disagree with his success for various reasons, but as a soldier and military leader he was top-rate.
@Hyperionsf you can disagree with him politically, but there's really no denying his New Deal played a massive part in saving the American economy and without it America would be a fraction of what it is today.
@@desmondcoppin591 Not everyone is honest and forthright. With people who are harmful it's better to be friendly with them, but not friends with them. Making friends with a bad actor allows them to take advantage of you.
Herbert Hoover is one of those sad cases of not knowing when to quit and stay out of politics (Philippe Pétain and Fulgencio Batista come to mind here). Hoover's reputation would be much better if he'd never been President. He was a highly successful engineer, and he organized food supply for Europe after World War I and famine relief for the Soviet Union in the 1920s. He worked well with both Democrats and Republicans. At least later he did manage to redeem himself somewhat after Truman appointed him to head the Hoover Commission.
Anyone, not named FDR would have been destroyed by that infamous first term. In fact, had Roosevelt first been elected in 1929, he too might have been caught off guard for a while.
Yes the "No child left behind" was a bad law but i'll admit many students going to schools in poverty areas included me benefited from it. Since the US education system being trash was not our fault and our families couldn't afford private school.
Let No Child Left Behind Act required testing of students. This has the benefit of exposing Bad Teachers who are failing to teach their students. Teachers hate this because they hate accountability.
@@williamdegiovanni6785 you're right I'm sorry we should apply your beliefs to doctors, Pilots, truck and Etc. I wonder how you would feel if Pilots were treated the same way as you suggest teachers should be treated I bet you wouldn't be real comfortable flying on a commercial airliner would you. You determine how effective a person is by their product. And the product of a competent teacher is a well taught student. There's a lot of students in a lot of schools who can't pass standardized test maybe it's time we started looking at the teachers. I suspect you might be in the teachers union don't like scrutiny do you.
@@russellpearce3749 BS. It’s the bubble test, assembly-line, everybody learns the same way trope that killed American education. Note, we were world class before the GOP started privatizing and denigrating the system. Better food, better teachers, better programs, better results. Blaming the teacher is the lazy man’s view of a process he knows nothing about. “Administrators” who are MBAs and not PhDs killed education AND made it prohibitively expensive. So much for business efficiency.
@@russellpearce3749 I'm not a teacher, I'm a college student and as one who makes the Dean's List every Spring and Fall term, and made the honor roll from elementary to 9th grade, I can tell you they don’t teach in school. They make you memorize things for the FCAT/FSA or whatever the state test is called. Those tests are hard, I was an A/B student and I had to retake the FCAT to pass it. Standardized tests don't determine anything. Your High School GPA is a better derterminer of your freshman year of college than your SAT/ACT score. Look it up if you don't believe me.
@@krystalreynolds9462 one thing I'll tell you is you should never tell anyone to look anything up when you are trying to prove a point. Use sources to back up anything you may claim.

Frank Herbert once said that the most dangerous President in the 20th Century was Kennedy, because he was highly charismatic. Everyone who surrounded him became yes-men for him. And he said the most useful President that was in the 20th Century was Nixon, because he taught people how to openly distrust government, and he did it by example.

@@jakekillsrah1933 Biden literally hasn’t done a single thing that would be considered harmful to the US, much less anything bad enough to warrant being on this list. Your ignorance is palpable.
While our President is ultimately responsible for what happens because he is the head of state I find it unfair to always blame everything on one single person. Imho the rest of the people in our governmental structure need to start being held accountable for their parts in these actions as well. P.S. It seems I should have added a little more to my explanation because some people believe I am talking about specific individuals. I meant that we have a checks and balance system for a reason and that not just a single leader. Everything that goes wrong "or right occasionally" shouldn't be all on whichever President is in office at the time. Several people have to work towards what we achieve and don't achieve. Some of them need to stop acting like children fighting over toys and start doing their jobs. In other words we need to start holding our Senators and Congress people accountable too.
Trump is obviously the Worst, you can tell by so many Things. Never before have things happened that have happened in his Time, this is a fact. The Quitting of People in the White House alone, and many really admirable, smart People openly despising him, these 2 things are Proof enough. Yet, there's so much more. I don't think any President ever went on a Hate Speech about Wind and Wind Mills before - if you missed that, search for it on RUclips and have a Laugher.
Slevin Channel So Trump says a thing about windmills and he’s the worst president ever? Lets be objective about this pal, especially when people like James Buchanan or Franklin Pierce exist.
@@envy5880 How about you being objective and stopping nonsense arguments like that about the Wind Mill just now? You know it's not my Main Argument or my only Argument, you konw it. That Wind Mill Hate Speech was just one thing. Though it is funny to see how dump Trump is, in a single Speech.

@@patrick.3 one can argue in favor of Andrew jackson although his destruction of the B.U.S. led to the panic of 1837 because of the lack of a stable currency system
The greatest tragedy in my life3time was Lyndon B. Johnson. He presided over the Civil Rights Act and The Great Society , yet couldn't bring himself to end the War in Vietnam.
We owe him the SDN, or League of Nations in english, which was supposed to end world wars, and the validation of Mandates in the Middle East... So, thankfully, he did not do that much for Europe.
He was a fan of FDR so he absolutely isn't an libertarian. FDR lengthened the depression by a decade, only coming to an end because of WW2. Getting the government so overly involved with The New Deal was brutal and counter productive.
Cameron Bates the Great Depression started because the government didn’t regulate enough. So why do you think the answer was even less government involvement? The only reason we have not had another depression is because of the safeguards he implemented. Also, his programs helped a lot of people and raised quality of life
@@RockPile_ that's not true at all, it was caused due to mass speculation in the stock market. Regulation wouldn't have stopped that, and most of the programs he started have plagued the US since. We have had numerous recessions since then, and the reason we haven't had one to the scale of the great depression is because the govt didn't get as involved.

@Walter Lawrence Honestly George Herbert was a better president than both Reagan and Trump. He recognized that supply side economics didn't work and raised taxes to cover the budget even though he knew it would hurt him politically. Also, Bill Clinton left us with a spending surplus. As a leftist social democrat, that isn't terribly important to me, but conservatives (I'm assuming you're a conservative) say that that is important to them; balancing the budget.
@Walter Lawrence So you'd rather have a "cut taxes but raise spending" supply-sider like Reagan than someone who actually raises taxes to pay for the budget? I thought conservatives care about fiscal conservatism and responsibility, ie the debt and deficit. Oh wait, that only applies when a Democrat is in office. Thanks for reminding me what massive hypocrites you are. I'm 18 by the way. Not a child.
@Walter Lawrence 60% of wealth is inherited. Billionaires pay a lower effective tax rate than the middle class. (See Warren Buffet and his secretary). The idea we live in a meritocracy is nonsense. Keep living in Dream World.
@Walter Lawrence Warren Buffet openly stated in an interview that with deductions and loopholes, his tax rate is effectively lower than his secretary. You can find the video on RUclips.
Walter Lawrence So we should have no taxpayer funded programs at all? The government pays for research that private companies do to make their products. The government plays an intrinsic role in the economy. The fact that you deny the complex role that the government needs to play in the economy is frightening to be quite honest. And I’m currently working on a college degree so that disproves your theory that I’m lazy. Your comments suggest a complete lack of awareness for the necessity of some government involvement in public life as well as a total lack of compassion for your fellow countrymen.

I also don't remember a president that blatantly ignored the Aids crisis because of religious beliefs letting the disease go viral to salvage his public virtue with the Cristian church . that's not even mentioning trickle down economics where he thought if he distributes enough of the US wealth along with tax cuts to his rich friends and global elite that money would eventually reach the everyday worker which was a laughable prospect . Just these issues created social and financial disparities that we as a county still have not recovered from. He cared only for those that were ALREADY rich and sat idle for the issues effecting the American people . He was the worst president of the united states.

Another thing on Wilson, he believed that the Constitution was just an old, irrelevant document that needed to either be rewritten or replaced with a new one.
@@ILoveGrilledCheese There are mechanisms in place to do exactly that. After the Bill of Rights was added to our Constitution (the Constitution would never have been approved by the states without it) the Constitution has been amended seventeen times. Although Amendments have historically always originated in our national legislature, the people can call a referendum to create a convention to amend it or even replace it. That having been said, our government largely ignores the Constitution anyway (Patriot Act, War Powers Act, FISA, hundreds of other laws) that Wilson's dreams have come to fruition anyway.

How did Andrew Jackson not make this list? Massacring indigenous people and ignoring the rules of democracy were kinda the things he was most passionate about.
Fully concur. Unfortunately the comprehensive breadth of human vocabulary is insufficient to describe how awful a president Andrew Jackson was. A sickly ferret would have done a better job in the oval office than Jackson - which is somewhat ironic due to their physical similarity.
Jackson was a decent presdent
That's what I'm saying
AJ didn't "massacre" them while in office; He forcibly evicted them and made them relocate somewhere else, during which process a lot of them died tragically. It may be subtle difference, but "massacre" implies death in battle or some kind of mafioso free-for-all, which it wasn't. Now, what he did as a field commander and soldier before entering office as president is another story.
@@elagabalusrex390 I think this is a good point. It's like the difference between how the Nazis and Soviets killed people. Both definitely evil, but different levels of it.
Ironically, Woodrow Wilson was also the most educated president. He had a freaking PhD.
Yes, and he was also the president of an Ivy League college (Princeton).
And a racist - but Princeton named a part of the university in their name. And I think the first time
a spouse of potus more likely than not in running the country. Education does not always means
enlightened.
He also signed the Federal Reserve Act into law for which he was later repentant. The Fed has single handedly destroyed the economy of the USA and is probably the backer of all American war excursions since 1913. He set integration of blacks back so far that it took nearly 50 years to recover. He was a pawn of bankers and his election was bought and paid for by them. Read "The Creature of Jekyll Island" and get informed.
Add one more in stance where biden wh handlers cut the open feed on a q&a, on the matter of the debt. You think on transperancy biden could be even more of a hypocrite than obama? The contrats where with Trump perhaps tmi, and with biden, w/e the handlers want to dispense.

@@nelly3683 Absolutely. Other than the direct damage that it has caused, the "war on drugs" also helped shape the harmful drug culture we know today. The impact it's had is unfathomable, and I'm not sure how much of it was ignorance, and how much was intentional. Either way, most people on the right believe this is the only "correct" response.

The film has its place in history as the first major blockbuster and in pioneering a lot of moviemaking techniques. But the worldview these talented filmmakers chose to use their gifts to present is sickening.
I watched it ONCE, and I love silent films. but NEVER this one again. There is *ONE* "fact" that came from this film which I will not point out (And it has NOTHING to do with the *AWFUL* KKK). Disgusting film that was a bad product of it's time.
The worst part about the birth of a nation is how good it is
@@dawsongranger4940Yeah, that's the worst part about it. It's an absolute masterpiece of film history and maybe the most influential film ever made, but it's message is truly disgusting to this very day.
Don't forget also: The original Civil Service was colorblind, but Wilson issued an Executive Order and got laws to segregate it. Going backwards on racial equality 50 years later, federally.

How did Andrew Jackson not make the list? Passage of the Indian Removal Act which led to the genocide of Native Americans on the trail of tears, he supported several Tariffs (1828, 1832, and 1833) as the primary means of paying down the national debt and you said you don't like Tariffs, Jackson was also both a slave owner and slave trader, and owned over 300 slaves throughout his life. He opposed Abolitionists mailing anti-slavery tracts through the US Postal Service.
Considering how important you view character in defining how bad somebody was as a President, I'm surprised Tyler's not on the list. He had such poor values that when he left office he became a traitor to the union and supported the cause of the Confederacy.
You mean the union violating the constitution and stripping states rights
Yeah he should probably gotten at least the number 10 spot.
Knowing Mister Beat by this point, he would've been 11th or 12th.
It was not as president though
As president, he was actually not half bad
1. Peacefully resolved border disputes with Canada
2. Ended one of the bloodiest Native American wars in history, the Second Seminole War
3. Established vice presidential secession upon the death of a US president
4. Log Cabin bill
5. The first telegraph line in the United States is completed between Washington, D.C. and Baltimore.
6. Oversaw gains for the power for unions to unionize with the Supreme Court decision in Commonwealth v. Hunt
7. Florida became a state
8. Arranged for the annexation of Texas
9. Treaty of Wanghia
10. Handling of the Dorr Rebellion
11. Preemption Act of 1841
12. Bankruptcy Act of 1841
13. Panic of 1837 ended under him
If we were to rate presidents based upon their time in office, bad presidents like Carter and Hoover would be rated at some of the best spots
@@person3070 i think texas annexation was bad because it helped set the stage for the Mexican American War. It did nothing to ease divisions and btw, Texas still had an unresolved border dispute with Mexico and these events led to the war. Hoover definitely deserves to be a below average president. Tyler did not end the Panic of 1837. It ended when he was president but with a poor economy until the late 1840’s.
I can understand a monarch saying "I'm not qualified for the position I inherited(nicholas II) but a POTUS (Warren Harding) saying I am not qualified for the position I competed to aquire" is a totally different thing!Y= you can't choose what you are born into but you most certainly can choose what you grab.
Reminds me of joe Biden
To be totally fair to Harding, he was drafted to run and more or less got swept into office because he was just so damned genial and popular. He left the hard work of campaigning to the Republican Party bosses. It doesn't really even feel right to call them "underlings" because he was mostly doing their bidding, not the other way around.
Not sure how much of a redeeming factor this actually is but it's worth keeping in mind.
Hi. Harding's statement sounds like false humility. Cheers, P.R.
We just had a Secretary of State (Tolinson) that admitted that he didn't know what he was doing, a Postmaster General who is actively trying to destroy the post office so that his delivery service can prosper and a Secretary of Education working to destroy public education. Well, we also had a head of the NSA who was a Russian agent. And almost half of America want to bring them back.

I think that is a debate since Johnson helped Lincoln to end slavery. He was refusing to enact bad laws. Look at the carpet baggers after the civil war? They were Republicans from the north and robbed the south of the wealth that left the southern states as poor as it is today. He was against those plans because he knew what would happened once the northerners did what they did to the south.

Herbert Hoover is one of those sad cases of not knowing when to quit and stay out of politics (Philippe Pétain and Fulgencio Batista come to mind here).
Hoover's reputation would be much better if he'd never been President. He was a highly successful engineer, and he organized food supply for Europe after World War I and famine relief for the Soviet Union in the 1920s. He worked well with both Democrats and Republicans.
At least later he did manage to redeem himself somewhat after Truman appointed him to head the Hoover Commission.

While our President is ultimately responsible for what happens because he is the head of state I find it unfair to always blame everything on one single person. Imho the rest of the people in our governmental structure need to start being held accountable for their parts in these actions as well.
P.S. It seems I should have added a little more to my explanation because some people believe I am talking about specific individuals. I meant that we have a checks and balance system for a reason and that not just a single leader. Everything that goes wrong "or right occasionally" shouldn't be all on whichever President is in office at the time. Several people have to work towards what we achieve and don't achieve. Some of them need to stop acting like children fighting over toys and start doing their jobs. In other words we need to start holding our Senators and Congress people accountable too.
Thank you! We need to hear that more.
Especially in my home country, where basically every local politician is corrupt but only the national politicians gets the hard time.

As a european, I appreciate Wilson's actions in Europe after WWI. We owe him a lot. But for America... yikes.
I heard that he later died from the aftereffects from the Spanish flu, sort of an old-school version of "Long Covid".
Wilson's mind when he lied about getting america in ww1: *screw it I'm getting this country in war we gon that free win and be on the history books*
"yikes"???!! That's it? Yikes???? WTF??
We owe him the SDN, or League of Nations in english, which was supposed to end world wars, and the validation of Mandates in the Middle East... So, thankfully, he did not do that much for Europe.
Wilson sucked! Teddy Roosevelt would have been a much better president if the republicans had nominated him instead of fat man Taft!

I think he's left leaning, but I'm trash at telling so it could be libertarian.....
He was a fan of FDR so he absolutely isn't an libertarian. FDR lengthened the depression by a decade, only coming to an end because of WW2. Getting the government so overly involved with The New Deal was brutal and counter productive.
Cameron Bates the Great Depression started because the government didn’t regulate enough. So why do you think the answer was even less government involvement?
The only reason we have not had another depression is because of the safeguards he implemented. Also, his programs helped a lot of people and raised quality of life
@@RockPile_ that's not true at all, it was caused due to mass speculation in the stock market. Regulation wouldn't have stopped that, and most of the programs he started have plagued the US since.
We have had numerous recessions since then, and the reason we haven't had one to the scale of the great depression is because the govt didn't get as involved.

Oh, the country is divided over slavery and is about to erupt into the civil war? Ok, ok I'll just sit in the oval office with my goblin chin staring at submarines.
haha well, most historians definitely consider him the worst
In your opinion. What do you think he should have done?

The so called "Patriot Act" is the most un American piece of legislation imposed on the citizens since the so called "War on Drugs.
All the "Patriots" support it.
They always cry about freedom, liberty and the 2nd. Though support a law which would've made Erich Honecker cum in his pants.
This law infringes on the bill of rights like no other.

I tend to lean more to the right, but even I can admit that Bush’s policies were trash, and he was a pretty bad president
@Walter Lawrence Honestly George Herbert was a better president than both Reagan and Trump. He recognized that supply side economics didn't work and raised taxes to cover the budget even though he knew it would hurt him politically. Also, Bill Clinton left us with a spending surplus. As a leftist social democrat, that isn't terribly important to me, but conservatives (I'm assuming you're a conservative) say that that is important to them; balancing the budget.
@Walter Lawrence So you'd rather have a "cut taxes but raise spending" supply-sider like Reagan than someone who actually raises taxes to pay for the budget? I thought conservatives care about fiscal conservatism and responsibility, ie the debt and deficit. Oh wait, that only applies when a Democrat is in office. Thanks for reminding me what massive hypocrites you are. I'm 18 by the way. Not a child.
@Walter Lawrence 60% of wealth is inherited. Billionaires pay a lower effective tax rate than the middle class. (See Warren Buffet and his secretary). The idea we live in a meritocracy is nonsense. Keep living in Dream World.
@Walter Lawrence Warren Buffet openly stated in an interview that with deductions and loopholes, his tax rate is effectively lower than his secretary. You can find the video on RUclips.
Walter Lawrence So we should have no taxpayer funded programs at all? The government pays for research that private companies do to make their products. The government plays an intrinsic role in the economy. The fact that you deny the complex role that the government needs to play in the economy is frightening to be quite honest. And I’m currently working on a college degree so that disproves your theory that I’m lazy. Your comments suggest a complete lack of awareness for the necessity of some government involvement in public life as well as a total lack of compassion for your fellow countrymen.
It’s actually criminal that nobody knows how bad of a president Ronald Reagan was.
He's my personal least favorite. He did so much damage to the US, damage that is still being felt to this day.
Lol, he was one of the best. He did a few wrong things, that's it. Just like all other presidents
@@pmv2015 that's funny you say that, I don't remember an administration that allowed guns to be Illegally sold to Iran and cocaine to be smuggled into the US thus creating a crack epidemic which the president addressed with the war on drug users which was really just a war on minorities.
I also don't remember a president that blatantly ignored the Aids crisis because of religious beliefs letting the disease go viral to salvage his public virtue with the Cristian church .
that's not even mentioning trickle down economics where he thought if he distributes enough of the US wealth along with tax cuts to his rich friends and global elite that money would eventually reach the everyday worker which was a laughable prospect . Just these issues created social and financial disparities that we as a county still have not recovered from. He cared only for those that were ALREADY rich and sat idle for the issues effecting the American people . He was the worst president of the united states.
@@pmv2015 Nuh uh

Another thing on Wilson, he believed that the Constitution was just an old, irrelevant document that needed to either be rewritten or replaced with a new one.
And I wouldn't say modern Democrats are too far off
He also resegregated the military.
He's not wrong, your constitution is very outdated and in the very least could use some updating.
@@ILoveGrilledCheese There are mechanisms in place to do exactly that. After the Bill of Rights was added to our Constitution (the Constitution would never have been approved by the states without it) the Constitution has been amended seventeen times.
Although Amendments have historically always originated in our national legislature, the people can call a referendum to create a convention to amend it or even replace it.
That having been said, our government largely ignores the Constitution anyway (Patriot Act, War Powers Act, FISA, hundreds of other laws) that Wilson's dreams have come to fruition anyway.
Ever hear of Amendments? It gets changed when it needs to.

5-Hydroxy Tryptamine he did nothing wrong EXCEPT the farmers... they didn’t feel so good. The Economy was also booming.
5-Hydroxy Tryptamine yeah that was also bad. But overall his presidency was good. This happened AFTER his presidency.
