Worst. Ranking. List. EVER!!!

Coolidge is notorious as a hands off President. Let the children do what they want ...what could possibly go wrong?
Yes, we had some short term prosperity as the Stock Market built into a huge unsupportable bubble

None of that caused the depression. All the amateur investors that gambled all their money and lost it, caused the depression. Coolidge provided the money by being a damn good president.

You guys always like to ignore and leave out a little thing called the "Dust Bowl". The Dust Bowl was a continuous series of droughts and wind storms that devasted American agriculture throughout the Great Depression. It depopulated vast areas and caused huge numbers of people to flee these areas in search of employment in the already stressed populated areas.
It's very convenient for you guys to leave out that portion of history and a major cause of the inability of the government to deal with the GB. What is the big deal, right? Millions of people unemployed due to weather as a major American industry is getting destroyed beyond a practical solution.

Why do historians rank tyrants at the top?

Abe is a tyrant? You're a very sick man. It also shows you know nothing about history. He kept the nation together. Better get used to your pussygrabber permanently holding down the bottom spot.

Thanks for showing as always you're the dumbest person in the room.

Dude, we are still north vs south..
He trampled over the rule of law. Shit on our Constitution. Jailed people for dissent. Had his thugs go around the south and rape, steal and murder women and children.
It doesnt surprise me you support those actions. Most statists do.

The truth is that no one single thing caused the Great Depression. The dust bowl was a huge factor. So was the run on banks and the subsequent closing of said banks. Bankers were also investing deposits in the stock market, then losing the money, then not having the funds to back up the deposits. The only banks surviving the crash were reluctant to lend money, which led to more contraction and further unemployment. That's just to name a few. There were at least 10 more major factors.

This "Coolidge caused the Great Depression" bullshit is....bullshit. He was a hands-off leader, which is ideal for freedom lovers.

[TroglocratsRdumb]

FDR was a racist.
FDR invited all of the 1936 US Olympics athletes to the White House except for one, Jesse Owens, who had won four gold medals. Jesse Owens did not receive the invitation from president FDR. Jesse Owens campaigned for Republican Alf Landon, in the 1936 presidential election. Owens said “Hitler didn’t snub me—it was our president who snubbed me.”
FDR refused to allow persecuted Jewish Refugees to enter our country during WWII. FDR claimed that the Jewish Refugees would threaten our national security.
FDR attempted to usurp the constitutional separation of power.
FDR should be rated near the bottom.

Yes, perhaps you make some good points, but the fact is that the GB began under his administration and he obviously did not successfully implement programs or methods to prevent it or lessen its devastating impact. It began in 1929 and by the time FDR took over in 1933 the mess was beyond any kind of practical resolution. Irreparable damage was caused under Hoover. You can debate that the damage done was not all the fault of Hoover or even any of the fault of Hoover, but those are just subjective analyses.

FDR policies were looking to ease the suffering of the masses rather than look at how quickly he could get the banks on their feet

The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little....FDR

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

Bill Clinton is a racist and a rapist and he was impeached.
His mortgage policy caused the 2nd worst economic decline in our history.
Millions of hard working middle class American suffered because of Clinton.
He helped the North Koreans become a nuclear threat to the world.
Clinton should be rated at the bottom.

Lincoln saved the union (if you consider that a good thing) and used the slavery issue to maintain support for doing so. I will give him credit for ridding us of the unholy practice of slavery. Credit where credit is due.

At the same time, he was a motherfucker. He was a racist son of a bitch. He abused the fuck out of his power more than any other president (FDR, Reagan, Obama, and George W Bush are all tied for distant second, in my opinion). He used WAR to settle a dispute about the structure of the Union and the options of the separate states to remain or leave. Separate, independent states agreed to form a union. Those states had the sovereignty to enter into such a union. They also had the sovereignty to exit. FORCING them to stay in the union with WAR and CONQUEST wholly denied them that sovereignty. That would be somewhat similar to the EU going to war with the UK for Brexit, the U.S. warring with Canada if they were to decide to leave NAFTA, or China starting a war with the U.S. for leaving TPP.

It's okay to admit that a president who did good things was also a filthy, overreaching, murderous tyrant. I hold Reagan to the same standard and believe that he was ultimately a bad president, even though I think he did lots of good things and despite his being on my "team" politically (for the most part).

"Honest" Abe was a filthy tyrant (honest? ). If there were such a place as hell (there's not), he would be roasting there now and forever.

The Dust Bowl did not cause the Great Depression. It did not start until 1934

Doing nothing can cause a Depression and also make it worse. Coolidge deregulation and ignoring the rampages in the finance sector led to a temporary economic surge and the Great Depression. Hoover did not cause the Great Depression, but his "prosperity is just around the corner" philosophy made it worse

I will give FDR credit for trying.

FDR's failure being benevolent rather than rational (if you honestly believe he was motivated by benevolence). He should have helped the banks first. As heartless as that sounds, it would have helped the little guy the most. Over 9,000 banks closed during the depression. But, economic success in a realistic (read: capitalist) society requires strong financial institutions to provide capital for investment, which creates more jobs. The recovery was slowed because of his mistake.

He was a shitty president in my opinion, not because of this failure, but because he abused he office and acted like.......(dum dum DUUUUMMMM) at tyrant. Ignoring the two term tradition and court packing alone give him this distinction, but there are many more reasons.

10 reasons why Obama is a racist:

he volunteered to work for Louis Farakahn

he went to Rev Wright's racist church for 20 years

he gave a speech to the New Black Panthers

he said if he had a son he would look like Trayvon Martin

he hosted the racist hate group BLM in the white house

he hosted the genocidal hate group Muslim Brotherhood in the White House

he said that the Democratic Party doesn’t want white voters from the South and rural areas

he said “Islam has always been part of America”

he quoted Rev Wright’s bigotry “white folks’ greed runs a world in need.”

he called his own grandmother “a typical white person”

Hilarious list. #1 gets hundreds of thousands of Americans killed and outlawed slavery. #3 not only reinstituted slavery, he enslaved American citizens and sent them overseas to use as cannon fodder in wars that has absolutely nothing to do with US national security. And got hundreds of thousands of Americans killed.

Whoever made that list must have some sort of virulent hatred of Americans.

World War ll had everything to do with National Security. Germany was demanding a cessation of trade between the US and Europe, particularly Great Britain. And it was more than just a demand. Before the war even began German submarines were attacking ships carrying US exports to Great Britain. Even US Naval shipps were attacked with great loss of US Naval personnel on the attacked Naval ships. US Navy sailors were being sent to the bottom of the ocean. All this in the middle of the Great Depression. I suppose that in your way of thinking a foreign power sinking US Navy ships was not a threat to National Security.

In regards to the other side of the world, Japan was posing a threat to American interest and security in their part of the world. Not only did they pose these threats to American ports and military post, they posed a threat to the Russians on the Chinese Russian border and were preparing for an escalation of war which would cause the Russians to respond and hence, greatly weaken their ability to help defeat Germany.

Again, your analysis lacks common sense if you think the Japanese threat towards trade and more importantly, the threat to annihilate the US military installations at places like the Philipines was not a National Security threat is a great distortion. and fantasy.

Japan was steadily continuing to build their already huge Navel forces specifically for the purpose of conducting war with the US. Thankfully, FDR prepared for the wars with Germany and Japan by supporting development of the weapons of war that were needed to defeat those two superpowers.

One of the things FDR is not given proper credit for is his experience and knowledge gained as Assistan Secretary of the Nave during WW l. He learned how to develop new advanced weapons of war. This he did quietly and without fanfare so that when the war came, the industrial might of America was able to immediately shift into high gear to produce the weapons that would win the war. Everything from the M-I Garrand to modern aircraft carriers, bombers to fighter aircraft, etc., were tooled and being produced or prepared for production when they were needed.

WOW! You Democrat apologists and slavery advocates sure do make a lot of off-the-wall excuses for the tyrant, FDR. Great Britain and Germany were at war. The US should have stayed neutral because Germany was not a threat to the USA. Plain and simple. Instead they started arming one side.

"I have said this before, but I shall say it again and again and again: Your boys are not going to be sent into any foreign wars." ~ 10/30/1940 Quoted from FDR during his 1940 presidential campaign.

Of course if the American people knew what he was doing behind the scenes and what he was planning, to enslave them and send them to die overseas as cannon fodder by the hundreds of thousands he would have lost the election.

FDR was a fucking war pig.



FDR was the worst US president in history. On the Most evil people of the 20th century FDR ranks right next to Hitler.
