I don't know enough about US history to judge if he's 'the worst ever'. It doesn't look as he's been particularly 'good', but then again, I can't look into the future either.

Since the USA has had a quite a good stack of leaders compared to other countries, George Bush is probably one of the bad ones. But Hoover wasn't exactly the best either.

Maybe worst human being would be better . . .

**Woodrow** · 12-25-2007

Keep in mind Bush has already run his limit and can not rerun for president, even if he wants to. we have a 2 term limit for presidents. In Nov. a new President will be elected. Bush's last day as Pres is Jan 21, 2008, with or without public support or public condemnation.

and then? Will you change something ?

**minaz** · 12-25-2007

is he the worst US preisdent ever?

In foreign policy yes.
Domestic probably not.

You probably will obtain 100,000,000 signatures, but how will you deliver it to the man?

**Pygoscelis** · 12-25-2007

The worst in my lifetime, yes. The worst ever, no. Let us not forget the golden age of "manifest destiny".

Since he will no longer have the White house address, it may be necessary to find his home address to deliver them. Although that may be a problem as he will no longer be a political figure after November and will enjoy the rights of privacy as a private citizen.

Don't you mean Jan 21, 2009? No sense falsley exciting all the Bush haters

With things looking up in Iraq (at least from a security perspective) Bush's poll numbers are climbing. The economy is in a sustained period of growth (at least for now) and the Dems are afraid of overturning what they call the "Bush tax cut". There is even a Bush ally at the helm in France of all places

As for foreign opinion of him.. I dont think Bush even cares. In fact, being hated in certain circles probably is a good thing. Remember, Truman had terrible opinion numbers when he left but is now generally regarded as a success. Kennedy was beloved because he was good looking and witty and was murdered in office but he also approved the disastrous Bay of Pigs invasion and helped start us down the road to Vietnam. I would say the historians opinion of Bush will depend on what happens in the Middle East. Will Iraq remain a cesspool? Will Iran gain influence? Will Syria be chastened?..etc etc.

There is a curious technicality in the Constitution...only citizens get to vote :thankyou:

Good luck with your petition though :thankyou:

**aadil77** · 12-25-2007

worst president? yes,
dumbest president? definately!

**Trumble** · 12-25-2007

Another 'yes', I'm afraid. I didn't think a subsequent President could ever make Reagan look like an intellectual.. which just goes to show how wrong you can be.

**shev** · 12-25-2007

He must know that other people have also rights, not only americans. And he is not a world saving hero. He is just a troublemaker

**snakelegs** · 12-25-2007

he almost makes reagan look like a man of peace.
that said, what is the point of signing this petition?

At least you have self awareness

The thing is one doesn't need to be a nuclear physicist or math genius to be a good President. There are qualities that aren't measured on the SAT. Reagan is a perfect example. He was re-elected in a historic landslide and accelerated, almost by force of will, the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Because of the constancy of his will and the defeat of the Soviets, Reagan is sure to be seen favorably by objective historians. Of course, I am sure it is difficult to tolerate one's intellectual inferiors given your obvious intellectual prowess.

Greetings,

Like Kading, I don't know enough about US history to comment.

I can't wait till he's gone, though. His time in office has actually been a colossal embarrassment for the human race, I think.

Peace
