I think its hard to top Buchanan, Harding or any of the ones between Taylor and Mckinley in the 19th century.

Now that I think about it most presidents sucked balls. Maybe its part of the design.
John Taylor was supposed to be sworn into the Confederate Senate, but he died before that happened. His grandchildren are still alive though.

All the presidents leading up to the US Civil War were pretty bad, but I think Franklin Pierce should be singled out for special mention. As the country was tearing itself apart over slavery he damn near caused a war against Britain, France and Spain simultaneously over a half baked scheme to grab Cuba and incorporate it into the US as a slave state. He was also an alcoholic who died of cirrhosis of the liver, if Wikipedia can be believed. For whatever reason the Wikipedia article downplays the Cuban business, but a couple things I read lead me to believe it was a VERY close run thing.

The one proud alumnus of the college that bears his name I know refers to it as either Fuckin' Party U or Fischer Price U. Probably fitting. :|

Depending upon how liberal or conservative I'm feeling on any particular day of the week, I oscillate between thinking Calvin Coolidge is either the worst president of the twentieth century, or the best. A lot of liberal scholars now think if any one person is to be blamed for the Great Depression, Coolidge is the guy, and that Herbert Hoover was just somebody in the wrong place at the wrong time. In fact a lot of what the New Deal did began under Hoover, it just didn't cool acronyms, seems to be commonly accepted scholarship these days. For better or worse.

Coolidge does have a term in biology named after him, the Coolidge Effect, concerning the re-arousal of male mammals for sex when provided with access to multiple partners. :geek:

I think the elites are making a very simple mistake of only looking at mathematical measured outcomes instead of the larger picture
