This one's easy, Bush. I admire Reagan the most and Nixon's only real big sin was Watergate.

The people of Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia might disagree with that, as would probably the vast majority of draft-age men in this country not able to get a deferment.

Also, Chile, Cyprus and Bangladesh.

Easy Nixon vote.

The man was the closest this nation has gotten to Hitler or Stalin.  He was pure evil incarnate whereas Reagan and Bush were poor man's versions of him.

MormDem's revisionism of Nixon is disturbing.  Nevermind that Nixon's legacy left many millions more dead than either Reagan or Bush combined BECAUSE HE TRIED TO PASS UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE GUISE!

And red avatars wonder why people mock them so incessantly?

Though admittedly, if you are judging by presidential performance Bush takes the cake.  Dear lord that man was incompetent.

Nixon's foreign policy may actually be the most sociopathic of any president. East Timor, Bangladesh, Greece, Chile, etc.

Reagan is my least favorite president ever, so him.

Mechaman is wrong, I wish he was right, the country should've learned, and when they primaried out Reagan and ultimately elected Carter,it seemed they did.

But 1980 proved corruption, invading places wherever you please, and Nixonian surveillance in the name of being above the law was all completely acceptable and even admirable,...if you could hide it under a mask of extroversion, positivity and paint it as patriotic.

Also Nixon's domestic reforms had some positive impacts in the long term (such as those price controls on oil), Bush 43 and Reagan's reforms were mere "easy answers" that ultimately damaged everything.

Truth of the matter (and I'm reading the transcripts of the tapes right now) is that the guy was far too two-faced to be compared to Stalin. Reagan on the other hand....
