2. Nah, he's still not as bad as Buchanan & Pierce

Their back to back 4-year stints made the Civil War inevitable--two northern apologists for slavery. But I would put Bush way below anyone since WW2, maybe on par with Harding, certainly worse than Grant.

4. Bush doesn't care about history

"we'll all be dead."

That exchange with Bob Woodward WILL go down in history, as will Bush* as probably the worst US President.
