Well, if my country were attacked, I'd feel it was Bush's fault, because if we hadn't been involved in the war, we would never have gotten attacked. Since the war started, we have had more terror threats than ever before. We will be attacked for supporting America in the war. If we were not in the war, we'd probably be safe.

Did bush make your country choose to go to war? No, perhaps he used some diplomatic pressure but it was still your own country's fault for following the US into war, you can not blame others for it.

Considering no one on this board (less a few) knows anything about more than 2 presidents, I'd say this should be more of a "Clinton vs. Bush" debate.oops Ford, Carter, Reagen, Bush sr and then the two last ones........................and Clinton ruled, one of the few US presidents that actully was populare in Europe
The thread topic states the word "Ever."
What about the three dozen other presidents? So aren't each and every one of them worthy of serious consideration, including supplying lengthy discussion from research for all of them, important events and decisions they made during their term(s), and maybe an overall score for each of them, stating specific examples why they do or do not deserve to win this "award."
To make this a valid thread, we need to examine every president. First up...Rutherford B. Hayes!! And quite a studly dude, I might add (see attached)!
