The longer a president is removed from office the more time to evaluate. Many Presidents left office with unfavorable ratings and as time proceeded the ratings improved.

To judge a President out of office for less then three years is folly and irresponsible to say the least. Besides, everybody knows that Jimmy Carter was the worst president ever until Barack Hussein Obama came along.

to be fair....yea right....one needs to know the basis on which these rankings were formulated...and by whom?

On the internet one can find anything to fit their purpose...we just need to know what that might be....other than the old R and D pigeon holes that so many seem to only have.

Once again with the bigotry of the 3 names of YOUR President. Pathetic, to say the least.

How does using a man's full name equal bigotry? It is his name and he doesn't seem embarrassed by it, why are you?

You know very well it is bigotry. Did you constantly refer to George W. Bush by all 3 names, Jimmy Carter as James Earl Carter, or John F. Kennedy as John Fitzgerald Kennedy? The answer is NO, you did not. Just because YOUR President is a minority and has a name that is not mainstream white, bigots constantly refer to the full name - maybe just to try and remind others that this man is not one of them.

I have heard some say "He used his full name in the oath of office." All the presidents do that.

Grow up. This is the leader of America. Have respect for him - and yourself.

'Nuff said.

Good question. The media and his campaign machine totally avoided the middle name during the election, but he seemed very proud to have it included during his swearing in. TBug is way off base, but his drinking water might be responsible?

How do you dare to make a such a comment as-"you know very well such and such". No, I DO NOT THINK IT IS BIGOTRY! BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA IS THE MAN'S NAME! He has a WHITE MOTHER AND A BLACK FATHER AND AN ARABIC NAME!!!! To which group of people is it bigotrous to? The guy is his own melting pot and that spells out what it means to be an AMERICAN! Not sure I am the one who needs to grow up and/or get a grip on reality.
SHOW RESPECT?!? That is the name he chose to be used as he was inagurated as the President of the United States of America! He apparently is proud of his whole name, as I would be of my entire name if I were to be sworn into that office. What is your deal? Maybe you are the one who has a problem with him...? Your reaction does nothing more than pervert his name in order for you to use it as some kind of ax to grind with those who are not too happy with him. Too bad! Makes it difficult to have a GROWN UP discussion with you.

Here are videos of the two Bush's and Clinton being sworn in, in all cases they use their middle names. Can you tell us when there middle names were used in describing them when they were in office, other than to distinguish the two Bush's on occasion. The only reason Hussein is being used is to irritate and incite people, it serves no other purpose. If it does serve a legitimate purpose, please enlighten the masses.

How does the man's middle name irritate and incite people? I still contend it is only bothersome to those who see the world thru their racially tinted glasses. Those of us who see people as people haven't got a clue what your point might be. Beauty is often in the eye of the beholder...dare I say the same for racial biases?

I do not understand. Barack Hussein Obama took the oath under that name. What is the beef? Is he not proud of his own name? This is getting ridiculous.

Sorry to say I agree with this post. I come from a middle class, midwest background that to this day holds fast to the prejudices of white over all others. I joined the Army in 1966 and have never looked back. My travels and jobs have broken the bond of prejudice for me, but it is alive and well in most of this country today. If you are Caucasian and don't witness prejudice against minorities, you either live in a very small bubble or your blind to the truth. It is so much better today than when I was young, but as God is my witness, it is still here with us. We have made better strides in the treatment of women than minorities, but work still needs to be done there also. We can not fix problems if we continue to say they do not exist.

I contend it is only used by those who see the world thru their racially tinted glasses or are trying to cause a distraction. Read what real republicans have to say about this:

Of course there is an easy way to stop talking about this and concentrate on the issues.
