During President Barack Obama's eight years in office, it was common to see a variation of the Old Glory flag of the United States where the stars in the blue field were replaced with Obama's face. And yet, it was just as common to see bumper stickers that infamously proclaimed "Obama: One Big *** Mistake America."
Clearly, there were those who were fans of the former president just as there were those who opposed him and all of his policies. Today, there are, not surprisingly, those who see him as one of America's greatest presidents and those who view him as one of the worst.
There have certainly been cases made that Barack Obama was among the worst presidents in U.S. history – but that overlooks such former commander-in-chiefs as Richard Nixon, Herbert Hoover, and John Tyler.
Nixon, of course, is remembered today for Watergate, while his normalizing of relations with China is largely an afterthought; likewise, Hoover's mishandling of the early years of the Great Depression overshadowed his "Good Neighbor Policy" that improved relations with Latin America.

IF LOOKING at OBAMA & his actions—before-—during—after being in the OVAL OFFICE aren’t enough to prove that NON AMERICANS SHOULD NEVER BE PRESIDENT-—
I do NOT know what will.
The man was an angel of death.
Obama was the hope-and-change hologram, whose assignment was to impose a quiet marxist revolution on America, starting with Fed.gov, and push forward the insane social-engineering of the West.
He destroyed multiple nations in the mid-east, created the largest refugee flow in Europe since WWII, planted the seeds of today’s war in Ukraine. And above all, he brought marxist chaos to America’s cities
LBJ gives him a run for the money on the evil scale. But they’re both right up there on damage.
Although Nixon can certainly be criticized as too Liberal, he was simply NOT a bad president. He was a good man, with good foreign policy and with an economic policy that was (unfortunately) in step with his times. And that Watergate thing — at this point, after Clinton, after Obama, after Biden — how can anyone look at Nixon as an immoral man or as a crook? The guy was a boy scout next to our more recent presidents and Watergate was a great big nothing.
And now Xiden is giving both of them a run for their money.

We can’t help that there are senseless people in our nation.
I forgot 43 oh well. He is ranked under this dad
Why is the question mark in the post title?
Obama was one of the most consequential Presidents in US history.
He accomplished his goal of fundamentally changing America.
Not for the better.
The damage that he has done and that Biden has continued in Obamas third term may be the downfall of the USA
Nixon’s worst foreign policy decision was going to China.
If you go to the site its there on the article
To me the turnip is Obama.

...that overlooks such former commander-in-chiefs as Richard Nixon, Herbert Hoover, and John Tyler.
Hoover was unpopular because of both the Depression and the Veteran’s March and its aftermath. Nixon, of course, for Watergate (but really for exposing Communist influence in the State Department). And Tyler? Never seen him on such lists.
Usually Buchanan tops most such lists for doing nothing as the nation fell apart and Harding because of the corruption during his administration.
Wilson by all accounts was a nasty piece of work, Carter is nearly always on such lists, but who we’ve got now may top them all.
