Reply to comment by ziq in Americans rank Barack Obama as best president of their lifetimes: Poll by An_Old_Big_Tree
What would an unironic yes they're all terrible and heads of a state we want abolished caveat included list even look like? Would it be in order of president number as the state has grown larger and hence more oppressive over time? Or are some unequivocally worse than others?
For instance, recency bias and personal effects on my family would lead me to say Reagan was the worst. But Andrew Jackson existed too, but not recently.

the most ineffective presidents would be at the top of the list - the ones that were unable to wage war as effectively as the others. The less effective they were at ruling, the less people suffered.
