Is Obama the Worst President that we have ever had?

[Kaizar]

I hope you don't vote because you are clueless.

Obama never created a surplus. (More has been added to the deficit in his 4.5 years than under any president in history and he still has 3.5 years to go)

Clinton had a balanced budget for 2 years of his 8 year presidency.  Republicans in Congress forced Clinton to do so even though he was kicking and screaming. (In comparison Bush had 1 year out of 8 with a balanced budget....neither are really anything to brag about) 

Even Clinton 's 2 years of balanced budgets weren't really balanced because they raided Social Security (that is why Gore later made the "LockBox" promise)

When Clinton was leaving office a recession hit.  LIttle know fact because W. Bush didn't whine and complain about it.

 

Also....comparing Reagan to Obama......

 

Here are numbers.  They don't lie (like you)

Obama has added $5.5 trillion to the national debt in his 1st term  (Smashing every record by far....this is terrible)

By comparison Reagan added $1.35 trillion (inflation adjusted to 2011) over his first term while saving the American economy.

Reagan inherited a bigger mess than Obama but didn't point fingers and whine about it for 4 years while blaming his predecessor.


Inflation (that Reagan inherited)
13.5%

Inflation (that Obama inherited)
0.0%


Prime Bank Interest Rate Reagan inherited
18.5% - this is astronomical

Prime Bank Interest Rate Obama inherited
3.25%


GDP Growth (Previous Year): Reagan (inherited)
-0.27%

GDP Growth (Previous Year): Obama (inherited)
0.0%


Both inherited high unemployment.


The overall numbers that Reagan inherited (from Carter) were worse.

What did Carter inherited?
