Poll: Obama 'worst president' since World War II
https://www.usatoday.com/story/theov...nton/11985837/
The Quinnipiac poll also reports that 45% believe the nation would be better off had Mitt Romney defeated Obama in the 2012 presidential election; 38% say the country would be worse off with a Romney presidency.
Obama is the worst president between Jan 2009 and early 2017. At least they got that part right.
By far and away he is the third worst in the 21st century.

“True, we [lawyers] build no bridges. We raise no towers. We construct no engines. We paint no pictures - unless as amateurs for our own principal amusement. There is little of all that we do which the eye of man can see. But we smooth out difficulties; we relieve stress; we correct mistakes; we take up other men's burdens and by our efforts we make possible the peaceful life of men in a peaceful state.”

Per the poll, he's already considered a worse president than Bush, so the only low bar he has to clear is Trump. I personally struggle to see him as the least worst. His legacy is built exclusively on executive orders and party-line voting. With those party-line votes very hard to come by, because he struggle to build consensus even among his fellow democrats, in concert with the fact he made no real effort to cross the aisle and work with Republicans. Yes, they were obstructionists. However, in his smug conceit he was remarkably dismissive and ultimately divisive. Of course history will be the ultimate judge. But considering nearly his entire eight year legacy has been wiped out in 100 days by a tough talking (from the safety of his own borders) reality tv star, it doesn't look good.
Interesting video from the Romney E2 Summit.
