By whom?
Google Results 1 - 10 of about 1,080 for "worst president in US history" Bush. (0.22 seconds)
to be fair,
Google Results 1 - 10 of about 820 for "worst president in US history" Clinton. (0.45 seconds)
Of course to get names you would really have to read into the links.
Under the usual standards that Presidents rate such things, I expect that he will be placed near or at the top of one-term Presidents if he loses re-election. (If he wins re-election, it is obviously too soon to tell, with less than half his Presidency elapsed so far.)
In a lot of ways the social trends such as Enron type corruption and US income distribution becoming like 3rd world countries was a trend long before Bush came to office. The lost of civil rights, putting the US much deeper into debt, and whatever long lasting effects come from the Iraq adventure can be ascribed to Bush.
Of course, protection of civil rights in the US was not doing well before Bush came to office. Stick my name in Google if you want to see how the scientology cult corrupted the DA's office and the courts to get me convicted of "interfering with a religion."
