These are great!
2Haha, samantha! Imagine our country without Jimmy Carter (we wish)!! But hey, wait, someone has to have the distinctive title of 'worst president in the history of
3America' and I think he's got it....
I think James Buchanan probably holds the title of "worst president". His actions as President of the U.S. directly led to the War Between the States, or as you southerners referred to it "The war of Northern Intrusion".
4Carter can hold the title of the "President who began the downfall of the Democracy." Sounds better.
