Actually, the damage any Prez has done is somewhat gauged by the laws that are passed in his wake to prevent others from doing what he did.

By that measure, most everyone agrees that Clinton harmed the nation. "Finance reform" is a direct response to Clinton - his illegal fundraising and his sale of pardons.
