Poll

Please VOTE above.

If you make any other suggestions, please try to ensure that the 'majority' of TSR users will know of. Any president post-WW2 (>1945) should be acceptable.

As opposed to the secret ones they didn't tell us about?

Nixon or Bush Jr. - hard to choose between them.

Carter ovo.

Hows about JFK? If the conspiracy theories are to be taken lightly he never took a professional stance in his job and apparently had connections with the Soviet Union.

Isn't it clear Bush jnr will win this because he is the most recent. I'm sure if carter had just been president, he would have easily lost by a mile.

Well Ithink it would be unfair. He was only president for a copule of years, and besides he'd the sympathy vote.

How can you create a poll of the worst post war presidents and only have four options?!

I don't know, admittedly that doesn't make sense, but I was just going by his thread title.

Not too fond of Tricky Dick or George W. But Sarah Palin has been the scariest out of most of the possibilities...

I'm surprised Reagan isn't in the poll. He's not exactly an obscure figure in modern history.

Ah, and TSR proves itself silly once again by just opting for the incumbent.

Richard Nixon is the obvious choice. A complete and utter snake of a man, so hideously without morals or decency, and did more to bring the office of President into disrepute than anyone before or since.

I've posted it before on the subject, but Hunter S Thompson's analysis of this complete **** of a human being is worth reading: http://www.counterpunch.org/thompson02212005.html

I consider Guantanamo Bay far more amoral then Nixon or the Watergate scandal. Though admittedly both are abhorrent.

Though having said that I haven't actually voted on the poll, I'm undecided, and simply playing Devil's Advocate with you :p:

Nixon was a brilliant politician and did A LOT for america, he was just unloveable. Carter had to deal with the iran hostage crisis and will always be remembered for that, despite being a brilliant man. Reagan was an inept version of Thatcher. And George Bush sr was a better version of his son, who is the clear winner in this poll. Who, despite most 20 year olds thinking so, did not turn the white house into a joke...that was Clinton.

My summation of the presidencies since Nixon.

All of four (maybe except Jimmy Carter) but I really consider as the worse, GWB Jr.
