    Very probably, yes. He has bankrupted the country, destroyed civil liberties and the rule of law, illegally and entirely unecessarily invaded a sovereign nation and committed the US to a war that, even as we speak has claimed hundreds of thousands of innocent lives and is now costing around $12 000, 000 an hour. And all of this when millions of people in the US cannot afford healthcare, decent education, housing, fuel and food as they did prior to his taking office. The man will not only go down in history for his callousness and ineptitude, but I hope one day be tried and convicted of war crimes and deliberately lying to the American people.

    I think that there are many presidents who were useless, but made to look good by the economy or other factors during their term. Look at Clinton. Although I think he is a reasonably intelligent person I feel he did very little that was impressive, but many feel his presidency was great. It coincides with a great economy. Bush, I think, was dealt some pretty shitty events, and although I may or may not agree with his actions, at each moment I feel he has worked hard to do his best with each problem. Besides, what does the president have to do with anything? Congress has the pants in this relationship by the way.

    I don't agree with it. But it's sure hard to not respect the opinion of an expert. If anyone should be an expert on a failed presidency Jimmy Carter would be near the top of the list, the only person still living who could compete with him on that would be Bill Clinton.

    From what I have experienced, yes. I agree completely. But I was not around for Nixon and watergate. I was still toddling. SOmething went really wrong with Lyndon Johnson, too. The Vietnam war and him not seeking election for another term....something was messed up.

    I have a degree in political science and I think that Bush will certainly be in the top five.
    And he just keeps it up-Carl Rove leaves the country so he won't have to testify before congress and Bush tells the G-8 summit "good bye from the biggest poluter on earth" while pumping his arm in the air-what a group.

    If you're serious and not just looking for the current popular answer (Bush) here is a list compiled by historians:

    http://www.usnews.com/usnews/news/worstpresidents/

    It appears James Buchanon gets the honors. In college classes my professor had the same answer as the list. Carter wasn't so special either.

    Carter is a lunatic. He should stick to pounding nails and stay out of politics. He was a failure as a govenor, and even worse as a president. He could speak volumes on a bad president. He was the leader of that group.

    In the list of disastrous presidencies, Bush's isn't anywhere near the bottom. I'll just give you a couple of examples. Herbert Hoover and James Buchanan. There is just no comparison between what happened because of those two administrations and what's happening with Bush's administration.

    He's only trying to hide the fact that his tenure in as the president was arguably the worst in American history.

    I think one thing we can ALL agree on is that G.W.'s presidency was not one of the BEST we've ever had.

    was carter insinuating that Bush was a bad president.leader? ...he should not "cast stones"....just as a having "class and dignity " thing...not many politicians worry about virtue though...

    I wonder how many of the people that agree with Jimmy Peanut were alive to experience what a bungling inept fool that man was as president. Naturally he would say that. He would want anyone to look worse than him. I hate to think what would have happened if he had been president on 9/11/01. The guy made Chamberlain look like a genius and a flaming right winger.

    Carter and Clinton have violated the unwritten rule not to speak out against current policies.

    Carter is in sad shape. He has supported dictators and despots and does not seem to care that he was also a wreck of a president.
