1) Buchanan (duh).
2) Pierce.
3) Tyler.
4) Johnson.
5) Nixon.

Hoover, Grant and Harding (who'd probably be in sixth place since I couldn't decide between him and Nixon for fifth) would be in the top ten, but I only had five places so...

EDIT:

1. FDR
2. Carter
3. Buchanan
4. Obama
5. Andrew Johnson

This one made me facepalm so hard I passed out for a couple of hours with blood coming out of my ears.

I've said this before, but the internet's hatred of Woodrow Wilson is just my favourite thing. My favourite thing.

He was massively flawed with his intervention in WWI and segregationism, but his progressive reforms balance him to about average.

Personally, I wouldn't quite put Wilson in the top ten, but he's up there. Let's say...  a solid #12.

EDIT: Actually, maybe he would squeak into the top ten. I don't know, it's not like I'm writing a book and have to keep a perfectly consistent view the whole times.

I think it's worth highlighting that there are people who've listed Franklin D. Roosevelt as being a worse President than James Buchanan. Heh.
