[edgeknife]

I disagree. C. Coolidge - Unlikely president but not worse. Worse time to be president though. Tricky Dick Nixon - Great president but surrounded by corrupt people also was in a worse time to be president. George Bush - Worse president? (maybe according to the bias western media and the loud minority groups and many tin-foil hat conspiracy nutjobs). But was voted twice. So what does that make them? Overblown by my standards.

You seem to hate Republicans. You probably enjoy big-government liberal policies do you? No surprise Democrat policies cater women and their entitlements. They even push this stigma that conservatives are at war with women and all that disgusting gender-related divisive nonsense Obama pushes around.

If you're comparing Obama with former US presidents, then I have to say that there are a lot of US Presidents who are worse than him, as this article shows:

If you're comparing Obama with his potential opponent, that being Romney, then I really have to disagree. Romney is a flip-flopper who keeps on changing his positions in the issues. Do you hate Obama because of Obamacare? Well apparently, Obamacare was based on Romneycare, so you can't really call Romney as better than him.

On military issues, I'm slightly (just slightly) in favor of Obama's policies on repealing "'Don't ask, Don't tell" and for being against torture. Compare that with Romney who is in favor of using torture in the military.

And besides, if we even review some of the other candidates who had already dropped out, like Herman Cain (who was very weak on foreign policy based on his botched Libya interview) and Rick Perry (who can't even remember his own platform during a debate), do you really think that no one can be worse than Obama?

I sincerely hope Ron Paul wins, even if many find it unlikely already, since I believe he's the one who's really better than Obama. If not him, I would rather have Obama win a second term in office.

dude, every time is the worse time to be a president. Name one president who didn't have to face one form of crisis ever. You accuse the poster for prejudice against one party, yet you yourself are guilty of it.

You say those republican presidents were unfortunate because of the context of their term in office, others can make that argument for Obama.

The bigotry is intoxicating.

I'll place my bet on Romney. It's unlikely to have a Republican Senator to win against Obama though, as there's a looming animosity over the health care bill, and disputes over financial reform, environmental issues, jobs, and any number of issues that we're seeing bruising these partisan members.

Maglisod ug daog si Romney kay dili tanang Republicans ang mo-votar niya ug mo-prefer sila to stay him rather than voting Romney. Divided kaayo ang Republican Party bisan pa mo-daog si Romney ig November ug mahuog jud na lameduck president si Romney kung in-ana ang mahitabo.

Mitch Daniels, Mike Pence and Eric Cantor would've been great candidates aside from Ron Paul and Santorum. But as a Republican myself from the northeast, I would love to see Mike Huckabee run the party compared to Romney.

Mitch Daniels especially, Mike Pence or si Eric Cantor couls give Barack Obama is run of money and better candidates supposedly over Romney. Had Mike Huckabee ran for the nomination, he's for sure the nominee of the GOP right now.

If I were a bigot I'd dislike every Democrat president in office which I don't. I actually love many of them, the modern-era ones which I'm familiar with. I just dislike Obama's policies and his administration. Not really bigotry, probably racist according to the mainstream media and Hollywood.

Hard to believe you'd still prefer Obama, being a Ron Paul supporter and all. They're the exact opposite in everything.

Ron Paul will run third party if he can't clinch the Republican nomination. Even if he said he's not entertaining such move, i'm quite sure there's enough support that can fund his third party movement. Even he doesn't win, he has awakened a generation of new americans who subscribe to an old idea embedded in their Constitution, freedom. He also popularized in the mainstream media the Austrian Economic School of Thought which has bounced from the shadows. Hayek and Mises will love this man.

Obama is far worse than any other president based on the amount of debt he has incurred in his first 4 years of office. Obama will **** the world twice if he wins another term.

I don't think he would do that. As you can see, he's more focused on the upcoming Republican National Convention in Tampa, so I think he's sticking with the Republican Party until he retires. There's also his son Sen. Rand Paul, who is a rising star in the Republican Party, so he needs to ensure that his son doesn't receive the wrath of the Republicans if he runs third-party. Besides, he already had an unsuccessful third-party bid in the past, so he knows that it's extremely difficult to do so with the lack of money and media coverage.
