    Agree Obama should be on the list. OP said it was obvious why he wasn't, but refuses to explain why. Clearly it is not obvious.

    Still, though, even if Obama was on the list, I still would have voted Carter. Great man; terrible president.

    Yet here you are again. @Andrew Jackson
    Broad Strokes with no itemization.

    Itemization such as
    1) Foreclosure Scandal and lack of leadership to keep Americans in their homes.
    2) Ferguson, Missouri vs Trayvon "leadership"
    3) The well being of working people :salute:
    4) Foreign Policy break through, like sitting at the table with Rocket Man.

    C'mon, don't hide behind the skirts of some forgotten Wiki reference.
    Itemize and say it as @Andrew Jackson and not someone else. ;)

    Sure, we all know what he did - he reversed much of the consequences of 8 years of Bush FAIL. That's what got you right wingers so angry.

    For about the 1,000th time --

    "W" Bush was an IDIOT!
    Barack Obama was an IDIOT!

    Are we clear on that? You won't find many Conservatives (if any) who will defend "W" Bush as being one of "ours", or, a "good" president. He got us into two endless wars, and, Obama never got us totally out of either of them, in spite of his passionate promises to do exactly that! Bush was a witless, "deer-in-the-headlights" stooge for the Federal Reserve banking cartel -- and, if anything, Obama was every bit as bad, and actually worse!

    In short, both Bush and Obama SUCKED like an industrial vacuum cleaner! It is Donald Trump who has had the unenviable task to clean up after both of those IDIOTS!

    WRONG. Dead wrong.

    Obama did NOT suck. He fixed up so much of the mess created by Bush. The case has been made and proven beyond the shadow of a friggin doubt.

    Yep, played the race card. Or do you think all those birthers and such weren't doing EXACTLY that?

    Content of Obama's character? Well considering your support of Trump, I'd say your character evaluation metrics are pretty damn poor.

    The history of his presidency? That surely is a debate predicated almost entirely on confirmation bias and not on actual fact.

    I always am amused when those without response resort to "attack the source" bullshit. It seems only Americans can have any opinions about american politics. Its not like american politics have any impact on the rest of the world, so all them ferriners should ****.

    And I have told you countless times, please do not reveal our covert plans to conquer you nation. Our plan has been working beautifully so far. Step 2,345 - get a corrupt, crooked clown elected president. Course we're counting on good ol' American arrogance to cover for our actual intent.

    None of it has to do with trump or Russian collusion. If we were started investing democrats we dig up tax violations just trying to pressure people to testify against trump . if we pulled this on Obama the main stream media would be screaming witch hunt and racism

    Every OBJECTIVE Academic Survey (conducted by Actual Historians) has Trump among the Very WORST.

    For example, of the "Historical Rankings" that Trump has been included in:

    Here are his ratings out of 44:

    44/42/44.

    2 Have him as the WORST Ever.

    1 has him at 42 (trailed by only Buchanan and Andrew Johnson).

    Trump has a High of 42 and a Low of 44 (in the 2 rankings that have him as the WORST Ever).

    Obama's Rankings are as follows:

    8/12/13/15/17/18

    Obama has a High of 8 and a Low of 18.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/His..._of_the_United_States#Notable_scholar_surveys

    So, in conclusion, ALL Objective Historians have Obama rated Light Years ahead of Trump.

    I would take the word (and knowledge) of Objective Historians (any day of the week) over the skewed narrative of Anonymous Hyper-Partisans on an Internet Forum.

    In other words, anybody who thinks that Trump is better than Obama is totally dreaming (and has no concept of actual historical context).

    Trump = Worst Ever.:flagus:

    Every OBJECTIVE Survey worthy of being cited by Wikipedia:

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_rankings_of_presidents_of_the_United_States
    __________

    Cut and Dried.

    Everyone agrees.

    The Public Has Spoken. :salute:

    The patriotic public is FAR better informed and objective compared to the partisan far right.

    As always, CASE CLOSED.

    I see.

    You seem to be presenting yourself as a sensible, reasonable fella, here's a riddle for yea - the prize for an honest answer is my respect:

    Forty percent of the world's countries are poorer than Palestine, yet Palestine is the world's third top aid recipient. Why?

    Alternatively, you can take a crack at this riddle:

    Eritrea is four times poorer than Palestine, yet Palestine gets thirteen times more aid. Why?

    And yet when I ran a poll which included Obama he was polled the worst? Having a poll where you cannot choose one specific candidate is Stalinist thinking

    We can likely bet that the measly 35% of voters who still like Trump probably hated our first black President.

    At this forum?

    LOL!

    This forum lacks an audience which reflects American demographics.

    I voted for Obama in '08.
    It was not until after I understood he lied to me and nothing to do with being Black
    did I "hate" him as I did the closest lying fraud President, LBJ, Peace Candidate '64.

    Can't we dislike the Obama presidency without someone playing the "race card"?

    I hope I live long enough to witness an honest review of the Obama presidency,
    and not the customary bonus points from historians today over Obama's race.

    Obama failures
    1) ObamaCare putting costs of welfare folks on working folks premiums.
    2) Afghanistan. same - same
    3) The Economy and the lack of trickle down wealth.
    4) Race relations. Ferguson, Missouri
    5) more on request

    Its a known fact that the Palestinians are the worlds only UNWRA officially recognized multi generational refugee population. Yet another example of UN diplomatic stupidity.

    The Palestinians get so much aid as a direct result of their unique status since 1967 of being citizens of a "belligerently occupied territory" whose previous status had been under dispute since 1948.

    Its a Gordian clustermuck. The Palestinians deserve better and Israel deserves peace and security. Neither is willing to trust the other and there are too many hard core religious nutters (on both sides) with too much power.
