Worse than Hussein Obola AND BJ Klintoon, combined. LBJ makes Richard Milhous Nixon, Jerry Ford and Woodrow Wilson look good. Your best POTUS was probably Grover Cleveland, because he basically did fuck-all. Poll asking most LEFTIST....that was either Obozo or Wilson..although in the long run Wilson did far more damage policy wise, starting with the income tax. HOWEVER the WORST PREZ in HISTORY IS and ALWAYS WILL BE LBJ....he was NO LIB by todays standards, but like Wilson the DAMAGE HE LEFT BEHIND with enacting LIBERAL POLICIES, like FREE FOOD and FREE HOUSING DESTROYED THE Black families and created the COMPLETE CONTROL over them to this day...without the LBJ "Great destruction of Society" programs the LIBS would be FOOT NOTE in history by now. RELEASE ALL OBAMA BIDEN CLINTON records...Putin is a asshole, just like Biden and Clinton. |

FDR for sure A Libtard is a mainstream Democrat who is controlled by Wall Street and big tech companies. Libtards tend to be anti free speech. They believe there are 30+ genders. They believe that abortion should be legal because it’s a woman’s right to choose rather than because it helps keep the population in check. Libtards believe that businesses should be forced to make products for people who they believe to be morally reprehensible. Libtards believe there is a gender pay gap despite the fact men have harder more dangerous jobs. |

Quoting: Beast Also I don’t think Wilson was that much of a leftist. He entered WWI which was basically a war to protect business interests and make the world safe for capitalism A Libtard is a mainstream Democrat who is controlled by Wall Street and big tech companies. Libtards tend to be anti free speech. They believe there are 30+ genders.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 69309383 United States 12/28/2018 05:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Franklin Roosevelt BY FAR. Quoting: Midwest Skeptic Roosevelt wanted to Nationalize the BIG companies in the US but couldn't get his Democratic Congress to go along. (most people forget about that now since it didn't happen - but it DID happen in Great Britain) Roosevelt tried to PACK the Supreme Court by expanding it by one Judge for every Judge over 70, which would have given him an immediate 5 appointments to the Court - but again even his Democratic Congress would not go along. Roosevelt got the national government involved in strengthening the Unions via his Labor Legislation and instituting the National Labor Relations Board - ie: the shove it up your ass Labor gets what it wants Board. Roosevelt instituted Social Security - before the Federal Government had NOT done anything wrt Welfare for the public. Roosevelt started the National Welfare Programs (though their great expansion came under Johnson) Roosevelt took the personal Income Tax Rate for high earners from about 17% to 90%!! The list goes on and on. Obama isn't even a weak candle compared to Roosevelt!! Johnson's actions just finished up what Roosevelt said he WANTED, but couldn't get through Congress back in the 1930's. Basically Roosevelt wanted to NATIONALIZE about 80% of the US economy, including virtually ALL manufacturing and ALL medical care ... and he got a LOT of it accomplished. Plus one, Roosevelt is the one I voted for in the poll Roosevelt created the WPA which socialized work so people could go to work.

Quoting: Revbo™ Tough call between Obama and Roosevelt. I voted Roosevelt. Mussolini and Roosevelt adored one another, of course it’s not taught in our school system and not commonly known. A quick search reveals this quote from a UK rag ‘Daily Ca____’ (I know, but it’s backed by multiple sources - look it up on your favorite search engine). < 50% “Unfortunately for the left, it turns out that Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) and other key Democrats were actually fans of Adolf Hitler and his Italian fascist copycat Benito Mussolini. If that isn’t the pot calling the kettle…(well, you know). Yes, it’s true. The architect of the modern left and the patriarch of neo-liberalism admitted to drawing considerable inspiration from the fascist uprisings led by both Hitler and Mussolini prior to the outbreak of WWII (when admission of Nazi sentiments became hazardous to one’s health.)” |

FDR put in place the welfare problems that we have today. Woodrow Wilson enacted the Federal Reserve and implemented the income tax. I know these aren't exactly left wing in some peoples books but those two assholes laid down the foundation of everything that is wrong with this country. |

I know these aren't exactly left wing in some peoples books but those two assholes laid down the foundation of everything that is wrong with this country. As I recall from reading history, Wilson was in debt with Warburg’s cronies, and supposedly it was with this leverage that Wilson was under duress to back the implementation of the Fed. (I’m going from memory so correct me if I’m wrong - this post isn’t aimed at *you*, but the general reader). I’m not an apologist for Woodrow Wilson, but he did tremendously regret what he had done, and from all accounts he was burdened by it until his death. |

User ID: 74827762 United States 12/28/2018 11:47 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Technically they may have been worse than Obama. But because Obama was presiding over an already very idiotically liberal/libtarded nation, he came off to me as the most leftwing president in US history. Don't forget that the ultra-liberalism of things like BLM and NFL protests - involving a bunch of pampered limousine liberals - began before, not after, Obama had left office. In effect, Obama was ramping up a "goddamn America" dynamics that at least didn't exist when idiotically liberal FDR and Woodrow Wilson were in the presidency. But structurally and legally, FDR and Wilson may have been more leftwing than Obama. Which is similar to saying that boner-wise Harvey Weinstein may have been worse than Bill Cosby and Bill Clinton. . |

FDR got my vote, Wilson #2. Quoting: FlashBuzzkill Agree. Another way to measure it is by who launched wars. Wars are the health of the state. By that measure Bush II ranks high as a left wing president. Singing the largest increase in the welfare state since the 60s is another indicator. |

He might have been a Republican but his platform read like a liberal wish list - - Conservation laws - Anti-monopoly laws - Consumer protection laws - Racial desegregation - Supported womens' suffrage movements Most of FDR's later pet policies were borne out of his cousin Theodore Roosevelt's ideas put forward during his "Progressive Party" years. Yep, old Teddy was a liberal in GOP clothing. User ID: 64492936 |

He gave us the New Deal and got us into the United Nations.
