31. irrelevant
Naftali ,   Israel   (06.10.12)
Any poll that has a favorable rating for Jimmy Carter is not an accurate poll and is therefore irrelevant.
32. Among LIVING presidents!
Israeli 2   (06.10.12)
Why? Are Carter and Obama dead?
33. Bush
DEB ,   WashDC   (06.10.12)
Based on it's past record CNN's poll was structured to elicit a biased response. My reading of the views of normal people (non left) is that son George was a very good president, had balls and made good decisions w/o worrying to much about public perception. Democrats Rep Frank and Sen Dodd led the effort in Congress to screw up US financial stability. The CNN results represent the "liberal" take and don't mean much more than night soil. Normal people would group Carter, Clinton, and Obama together as worst than the worst!
34. no one is worse than Obama although
Golan ,   modiin   (06.10.12)
Carter comes close
35. Obama's popularity
Chuck ,   SF, USA   (06.10.12)
Unfortunately, there is littlle relationship between Obama's popularity in the US and that in Israel.
36. no wonder CNN is going DOWN. 40% less viewers this year.

It's not true that the Israelis were in favor of our attacking Iraq. In fact, it was Ariel Sharon who warned Bush that doing so would come back to bite us on the ass, because of the possibility that it would strengthen Iran as a regional power.
38. 14 Amain, brother!

39. #27 Albrecht Klein makes a very valid point...
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (06.11.12)
We haven't even seen the end yet, and I'm almost afraid to see what it will be.
40. #29
mark ,   ca   (06.11.12)
What about carter and obama? Bad for US economy and IL.
41. Carter is the worst president ever.
I. Barr ,   USA   (06.11.12)
Trashing Bush by Democrats was done prifessionally. Carter was much worse except that many responders did not know who carter is. For Israel and Jews there is not even a mini doubt that anti Semitic Carter is still a threat to Israel. As an American I can attest that 60 % of American are stupid and not informed. Bush was very good for Israel and the Jews Carter and Obama atre not.
42. Not a huge Bush fan,but I'd take him...
Malone ,   Hfx   (06.11.12)
...any day over nobama..anyday!!!!
43. A pathetic attempt to take the heat off Obama.
Chaim ,   Israel   (06.11.12)
This appears to be another pathetic attempt by an Obama friendly media to take the heat off Obama. By every rational criteria, life under Bush was far better than under Obama. Whether you look at unemployment, deficits, number of Americans on food stamps or just about anything else. In reality, the worst ever American president, living or deceased, is between Obama and Civil War Era President James Buchanan.
44. CNN Poll?
Arturo   (06.11.12)
LOL!!! Yes and 87% of CNN's respondents believed that Obama is the Messiah.
45. Poll the Israelis
Oren3rd ,   Haifa, Israel   (06.11.12)
Why not take the same poll in Israel? I would think the results would be quite different.
