A major problem with the Sienna poll is that it gives equal wieght to all 20 categories. The problem with this is that certain categories are more important than others. For example, Hoovers presidency was swallowed up almost entirely by the Great Depression, so to say that handling of the economy should only be wieghted as 5% of the total is ridiculous.

It should also be noted that the Presidents ranked at the top of the poll have no almost no low rankings, and the ones at the bottom have almost no high rankings. In fact, of the bottom 11 presidents, if you remove Hoover, there was only one top 20 ranking in any category. Bush got 19th in willing to take risks. Are we to belive that these presidents were completely bad accross the board? My guess would be that atleast some people surveyed made sure that thier rankings would reflect where they though presidents should rank. That would demonstrate why George W Bush is ranked poorly in all the categories.

Clinton was a road scholar – and has the educational background to back his intelligence! Obama was admitted to Harvard Law without a 3.5 GPA (else he would have made honor roll).

His leadership ability absolutely sucks! He can’t make a decision! Bush W. could at least make a decision and stick with it (whether I agreed or not)…

In my view Obama = the worse President in history!

While lying under oath is a serious offense, GW Bush took us to at least one war under false pretenses and bad intelligence. The thousand who died as a result, seems like a much more impeachable offense.
