Americans believe history will judge Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton best among recent presidents and Richard Nixon and George W. Bush worst. Americans are currently divided on how history will rate Barack Obama. These surveys are kind of pointless, as the respondents ALWAYS over-weight the more recent presidents. For example, Clinton really can't point to major accomplishments, and was directly responsible for the economic collapse of 2007-8. While the BJ will never be forgotten, most of us don't care about it anymore. But he just didn't do much of import. GWB, OTOH, is bashed because of the influence of the media more than anything else. But the media bias will be gone as his term moves into history. Also, people will put into proper perspective the way Obama blew it with the Freedom Agenda he inherited from GWB. Obama will be remembered -- after you and I are dead and gone -- as the worst president of 100 years. Not only because of his effort to take the country where doesn't want to go; but because even at that he is a failed leader. Just as many of us said during the 08 election process, Obama simply didn't have the administrative and leadership experience to have the job as president. We have been shown to have been correct. Sarah Palin was far more qualified in '08 than Obama is even after 3 years in office. He just doesn't have what it takes.
