Wait Bush was worse then Nixon and Carter!

@gigaboy47

It is all subjective. But yeah, I would argue Bush jr. was worse then both of them. Nixon because of his accomplishments with China and Russia and his advancement of some Civil Rights, Carter because of his Camp David Accords and diplomacy with China. : )

@jaredabccrisscross Im curious. Why is Coolidge worse than hoover? I mean i would say under Coolidge the us was prosperous bc of his policies. Would you argue his policies were the reason for the Great Depression and Hoover inherited it? I was curious to see your reasoning and why you ranked them where you did thanx

@TheBukes92

Thanks for your input. Most economic evidence supports that Harding's and Coolidge's policies led to the Great Depression. Two of the major causes, the failure of the agricultural system and the gap between the wealthy and poor, were direct results of Coolidge's administration. He also really screwed up the Great Mississippi Flood and signed the exclusionary immigration law of (1924 I believe). The depression was brewing during his term. Yes, he handed it to Hoover

@jaredabccrisscross Thats right I forgot about how the agriculural system was failing. Actually I dont think that was new for agriculture, they had it rough since the late 1890s or something like that from what i remember in history in high school. Anyway, who would you credit for the 1920s boom? Would you say Wilson? I havent taken economics yet so i probably wouldnt be able to judge

@TheBukes92

The roaring twenties was primarily the result of consumerism and the birth of mass radio, the automobile, and suburban neighborhoods. This along with the added post-war prosperity that is characteristic of the United States (we also had a boom after WWII in the 50s) sort of molded together and created a prosperous economy. I wouldn't say Wilson had a lot to do with it. :)

@jaredabccrisscross Tell ya the truth I dont really agree with your list but its all based on the point of view so there is no wrong answer

@jaredabccrisscross Ok first of all Bush actually got stuff done un like Carter. Second Nixon has the watergate scandal Bush never did anything like that I actually kind of like Bush. I put him in the high 20's
