Carter.  Not that this is saying much, but LBJ wins hands down if for nothing else than he signed two landmark, bipartisan pieces of legislation in the CRA and VRA.  He's more polarizing, and I don't like him much at all, but he's objectively much better than the other two on paper, IMO, even with the Vietnam War.

Carter, if only because he was very weak on domestic policy. LBJ has been the subject of a lot of my ire due to his expansion of the efforts in Vietnam as well as his not-so-subtle racism, but he did get a lot of good things accomplished too. Obama will be remembered as an above average president.

Say what you will of the man's social reforms, LBJ was a vile, opportunistic toad.

I can see a pretty partisan argument for LBJ (in the same way a conservative would say Reagan), but Obama?  I'd say a generous but fair assessment is we really have no idea where he ranks.

Tough decision between LBJ and Obama, but I guess the War on Poverty and Vietnam pushes it to LBJ.

LBJ, Obama a close second. LBJ is one of the few presidents that was not only terrible on policy but a despicable human being.

You're right, Snowstalker, we obviously like LBJ because we love seeing Vietnamese die. There is absolutely no reason for any leftist to like him. But then you hate Bernie Sanders because he doesn't like ISIS, so I imagine in your insane worldview the Great Society and War on Poverty didn't count because they didn't involve guillotining social democrats.
