Nixon was actually a good President, who made a serious error, and who then covered it up. Back in those days, the Republicans recognized that what Nixon did was beyond acceptable, and Nixon was forced to retire. Nixon was pardoned, and then lived up to his part of the bargain, and vanished for the remainder of his life, and was never seen again in the limelight.

I'll never understand how there has never been minimum standards for the highest office in the land, other than age and citizenship. Any job above minimum wage requires experience. A POTUS should have to pass IQ and citizenship tests. Have physical and psychological evaluations.A college degree and/or military experience. Pass a background check. Provide ten years of tax returns. At least three years serving in government. This would have eliminated many of these disasters.

It’s a shame Wilson ain’t on the list. Man segregated the government. He started income tax and the federal reserve (which yay or nay depending on you). He used his ‘historian’ credentials to advocate the ‘Lost Cause’ mentality about the civil war, going as far to show the film “Birth of a Nation” at the White House and letting it quote him. He got us involved in WWI and started modern American interventionism. He spent the entirety of the treaty talks pushing for the creation of the ‘League of Nations’, the predecessor of the United Nations, then he couldn’t even convince Congress to join the damn thing, dooming it to failure. Did women get the right to vote under him? Yes. Was he basically forced into that? Also yes. By his last year in office, he had a debilitating stroke. Only his wife, Edith, and his doctor were allowed into his room. This has led to some historians wondering how debilitating the stroke was and questioning if Wilson was really signing bills at this time or if Edith was just taking them into the room and signing them herself. This has led some people to call Edith the first woman president. Hey, cool for Edith, but terrifying for the country at large.

When South Vietnam was on the brink of signing the Paris Peace Accord of 1968, which would have ended the Vietnam war, Nixon let it be known to the South Vietnamese government that under his administration they would get a better deal from him than what Johnson had negotiated, and that they should therefore reject the agreement, which they ultimately did. Nixon went behind his own presidents back to undermine his peace efforts just so he could win an election. He sacrificed the lives of ten's of thousands of American servicemen, and women, all for the love of power. How many lives could have been saved, on both sides, had he did the right thing and supported the government's efforts to end the war in Vietnam and bring the troops home? It truly says a lot about the state of the United States that when compiling a list of the worst presidents in the nations history that Richard M. Nixon doesn't even make the cut.

Wm Harrison didn't hang around long enough to mess anything up -- except himself. He makes the list for his outrageously LONG address, which led to his demise. We don't know if his error led to others becoming sick or worse. I like the fact that WatchMojo mentions bad medical practice in our history might have killed a POTUS. I seem to recall hearing that Lincoln might have survived had doctors not acted to contribute to his death. Maybe in the future, research can lead to a new video about Presidents who were killed by doctors.

As a few have mentioned him already, I personally think that Woodrow Wilson should've been #1, because while Buchannan is perfectly understandable, I think that the President who was directly responsible for one of the leading causes of the rise of Nazism and the second World War, the draconian "Treaty" of Versailles, should've and would've been the main reason to overthrow Buchannan. There's a clear and obvious difference between a Civil War and a World War, and it's no surprise at all we had President's that, willingly or unknowingly, influenced and/or caused two of the most brutal wars in history.

Shamefully karmic is that said punishment was the unfortunate slaughter of and complete military conquest of France by the very place they sought to never be able to do such a thing ever again.

I think this ranking is quite unfair to two presidents: William Henry Harrison was only in office for a month before he passed away, he'd probably have done just fine as president. And Chester A. Arthur? Well, he was a good-intentioned, fine man who did his best on the job. He mad eno major mistakes, had no major faults as president and reformed the civil service. Why is he even in the mentions? The man was at worst an average president.

Do you really think you can criticize Zachary Taylor for opposing the Compromise of 1850 and criticize Millard Fillmore for supporting the same compromise! It's one or the other! Pick a side! Taylor and WH Harrison were also in office for less than a year so their presidencies are too short to judge. Arthur ended the spolis system, a system that awarded political positions to supporters and not merit. He also strengthened the Navy and did more to enhance civil service reform than any president before him. Coolidge gave Native Americans citizenship had the wealthiest 2% of the country paying income taxes by 1927, 4 years into his administration. He greatly helped the country recover from the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927, by putting the government in charge of flood mitigation. He reduced the marginal tax rate from 56% to 48% and gave us the roaring twenties, the best period of economic stability the country had ever seen by that point. So yeah, I'd say Arthur and Coolidge were good presidents

How do you guys define being worst? A suggestion could be: set examples, that were, out of different reasons, rejected be the successors (in some cases even used as examples as not to do things). And, yes, that applies for all the names on that list. With regard to some pre- and post-civil or other war presidencies, that later rejected path was compromise (and therefore complicity) that did not stop anything. With regard to some other presidencies those mistakes are usually ill advised policies with highly negative and costly results for all. Some belong there because they mistook popularity for wisdom, some because the exchanged to many favors with friends and others for not listening to people who knew better. Combined or alone those acts reduced trust in the political or judicial system in- and outside the US.
