I wonder if Fox will steal the arrangement to this one too...

AP US here?

[Russell Higgins]

No the song is more presidents than just Reagan.

[cosumel]

He has in live versions. A quick search will find many of them. He has changed his lines for Obama a few times.

He did fix it. "Grant thought that getting drunk was fun" is the new line to make the rhyme.

[Ryan O'Connell]

It's funny how you call politics "silly" but they're really the reason this has all happened.

Obama isn't capable of passing bills because of petty political games.

The U.S. is owned by China because of petty political games.

The United States was formed because of petty political games, and the revolutionary war was a civil war, over two thirds of the "british" forces being american loyalists.

In the end, a horse is just a horse, a man's just a man, and politicians will always be politicians.

[ZeDoctorTod]

I wonder if JC will continue this song someday

My only nitpick with this son is that James Garfield was assassinated in 1881, not 1882. But hey it doesnt rhyme as well.

[SLagonia26]

And Carter, and Buchanan... There's been plenty of bad presidents, he's just one more to add to the list. It's perfectly natural to think of history as beginning the day we were born, so whomever is doing badly right now is always going to be called the worst ever.

[Bushboy65]

I could've used this in AP US History a few years back...damn my laziness.
