A majority of Democratic voters polled recently said Barack Obama was a better president than George Washington, Monmouth University reported Tuesday. Conducted from Dec. 4-8, the survey involved asking more than 900 respondents to answer: “Who was a better president: George Washington or Barack Obama?” Among all registered voters, 58% named Washington as the better president compared to 33% who picked Mr. Obama.(Snip) Among all Democrats, 29% said Washington and 63% said Mr. Obama. Monmouth said the survey question was “inspired” by a recent Economist/YouGov Poll that similarly asked respondents to compare Mr. Trump to several fellow Republican presidents

Most depressing, yet unsurprising, thing I've read today. Never underestimate the ignorance of the American left.

And the follow-up question should have been "Can you tell us of his major accomplishments?"

That's a huge accomplishment considering he was not qualified to be president of a mud puddle. Seriously, the chump should have never been able to run for President given that he's Kenyan and all. Democrats are nuts anyway. Who cares what they think?

The problem with that finding is that the majority of today’s Democrat voters don’t know who George Washington was, other then his picture is one dollar bills. So if the pollsters want to influence or sway the poll, the first question to minority Democrat voters, but then not included in the final poll results would be “Did you know that George Washington was a slave owner”? Common sense will tell you that would do the trick.

Courage, uncompromising honesty, leadership, exemplary character and above all devotion to a cause higher than yourself. ALL are utterly absent in this miserable wretch. Compare to the Father of the Nation? ?

This confirms for us that most Democrats have grasp of American history or are delusional.

That's just as stupid as the Republicans picking Trump over Lincoln. A lot of stupid people running around America.

It's an absurd question. The vast majority of Americans, myself included, don't know enough about Washington's presidency to draw a conclusion based on anything other than Obama's abysmal record. I agree that Washington wins, but I can only justify it by pointing out Obama's failings, not by listing Washington's successes. Beating the British is obviously huge, but it was prior to his presidency and doesn't address the question.

That's kind of funny. Most Dems probably couldn't find the USA on a world map let along know the least bit of history about George Washington.

If George had accepted the title of Kingvof America, when it was offered him, the Dems would have been thrilled.

These people are really brain dead. Cannot totally blame these dolts though because of those that didn't drop out of school they received a crappy education. Our educational system is broken. It teaches revisionist history that portrays our founding fathers like Washington as slaves owners undeserving or our praise and appreciation.

PT Barnum's quote: " Clowns are the pegs on which the circus is hung " pretty much describes most of the leadership and voters in the Democrat Party. And "There's a sucker born every minute" accounts for the rest. There's a reason that the Democrat party mascot is a Schiffty JACKASS.

Trump better than Lincoln was a bit much even for Republicans, but Obozo better than George Washington? The demosluts are just stupid for believing this. Of course, those that vote demoslut have little use for U.S. history and old white guys.

#27 Lincoln WAS a better president than Trump. When Lincoln issued executive orders depriving American citizens of their rights, the courts didn't stop him. Trump isn't even allowed to protect the borders which is the first duty of a president.
Remember, Lincoln wasn't in favor or freeing slaves, he only did it as a political stunt go gain support among the those northerners that didn't have slaves of their own.

This sort of preference poll is worthless. The life and times of each President are very different. How a President responds to situations and the make up of Congress have much more to do with earning respect and their style of leadership. Not every President so far has had a war, or a depression, or a pandemic on his watch. Comparisons at best are invidious.

Just what exactly is in those revisionist history books that would make anyone think that Barry of all people would even think he was a better president than George Washington? Barry was an incompetent putz who disregarded the constitution everywhere he could, not to mention that he set race relations back 70 years, got our military killed with his outrageous rules for our military that guaranteed they would be killed, showed his love for jihadis, and actually refused aid to the Ukraine when the Russians invaded. They got blankets instead. Then he saddled the country with CommieCore to dumb down students into walking morons, not to mention CommieCare and it's redistribution of money from the working class to the leeches. He was an utter failure and I'm not even mentioning the bulk of things.

What percent know who George Washington is ? I take YouGov surveys all the time and wasn't asked this question.
