I consider myself a moderate on most issues, right on defense. I have a favorable of opinion on Clinton despite some of his decisions on foreign policy and I support Bush over Kerry.

Bush ranks high as one of the most hated Presidents. But most of our truly great Presidents were also very much hated, besides the original good old GW, as in George Washington. And with todays media the criticism multiplies tenfold.

Please dont bash this, this is my opinion, I sincerely believe that in 10 years we will look back and praise Bush for spreading democracy to the middle east, time will tell.

If we're talking about which President should be the most hated, Andrew Jackson without a doubt instead history books praise him as the "common man." This man commited mass genocide against Native Americans, he is an embarassment to American History in my eyes.

Also Lincoln was hated much more than any other President while he was in office. Half the country cheered his death and during the civil war he absolutely was a tyrant, which is the reason Congress impeached Andrew Johnson to gain its power back. He also had to be a tyrant to win the war, which is why we now hail him as one of the great Presidents.
