9:11 to be fair about Kennedy, he kinda sorta got shot in the head pretty early into his presidency before he could do anything meaningful for civil rights groups.

2:15 I’m a Native American and my tribes are Chickasaw, Choctaw, Seminole, & Mvskoke. I wanted to share something personal because growing up in Oklahoma people are either ignorant or don’t realize how damaging the Indian Removal Act & Trail of Tears affects us tribes today. My tribes lost most of their language, culture, traditions, & clans due to the many deaths on the trail. The Chickasaws lost their stomp dances & clans. My people carried their dead love ones as far with them on the journey. Some became frozen during the winters. Those who couldn’t keep up, sick, & injured were killed by U.S. soldiers. When they made it to Indian Territory residential boarding schools developed by the U.S & Christianity help to target Native children to “Kill the Indian, save the man.” Teaching Native children that everything about them is wrong like their culture, traditions, language, and their own people. Everything bad continued on my tribes. Today as of a result, each of my tribes languages are highly endangered and the tribes are doing their best to promote & teach the new generation. As a Native, I feel we barely have our cultures & traditions. It’s all replaced with Christianity. It’s just sad.

Drawing chinese immigrants as yellow stick figures with horizantal eyes was WILD

[lucashunter]

gotta love John Quincy Adams, one of the most moral presidents the US has ever had--his worst thing was probably the best out of everyone here

[wyatt]

this video is basically just a speed read of a couple wikipedia articles

Lincoln was actually not who everyone thought he was. He ran as a republican in 1860, but the party he was originally from, and one of the parties that made up the republican party, was the free-soiler party. This party wanted to restrict the spread of slavery but not abolish it because they didn't want all the black people competing for their jobs. When elected, lincoln promised to restrict the spread of slavery like his party wanted, but that was deemed unconstitutional as the government was never given power over slavery. His counterplan, however, was just unbelievable. Slavery would be outlawed and the federal government would compensate EVERY slave owner, so essentially buying freedom for every slave in the country. Then, they would deport them back to africa and the US would colonize them instead

3:10 To be more specific about James Polk, the reason troops were sent “in Mexico” is because Texas (which had recently seceded from Mexico to become their own country) joined the US, which also meant the US inherited their large border dispute. It wasn’t really just “Americans in Mexican land” they both claimed it as part of their country.

Are we gonna talk about the fact that what is considered Wilson's worst action during his Presidency is to have stopped free speech while it's one of the tamest things that he's done ?

[meandmyboys]

Sad thing is that George Washington did say he didn’t like slavery he had a financial problem

[Jojokestar]

Can you do the best thing every US president has done? Great video.

[staringcorgi]

It’s nuts that Lincoln and FDR are considered the best presidents but both couldn’t care less about the values that we hold so dear like life and a right to trial

[Shevy_Seby]

Joe Bidens worst thing is the Afghanistan thing no?

[yopo]

Not only was Richard responsible for what happened in Cambodia, but what also happened in Chile too "Make the economy scream" - Nixon.

[BigRichG]

Here from the Vlogging Through History review, It's a great video! Thank you.

[SarahYusra-sl]

It makes it worse that both Thomas Jefferson and George Washington said that they knew slavery was wrong meaning that you can’t use that it was different back then because they knew it was wrong

[pilotoangelical]

It's not the worst thing Trump did, but during his presidency he changed a law that evaluated energy consumption because some of his hotels had the lowest rating

Btw very good video, I hope it explodes in popularity with the channel

[MrGiygas]

I’m surprised you didn’t bring up the Iran-Contra scandal, which was arguably the worst part of Reagan’s presidency.

[RæspberryPlasticTickleBear]

Truman dropping the bombs was not something he wanted to do, but he did because it ended WW2.

Grover Cleveland crushing the Pullman Strike was pretty bad. He also groomed his wife, Frances Folsom. He was 27 years old when she was born, she was the daughter of his law partner at the time, and he bought her her first baby carriage.
