#7 Kerry may well be the most despicable American alive. But I have to say it's impossible for him to be number one on this list, he lacks the motivation and ability to be number at ANYTHING.

#8 The politicians/jurists associated with The 17th Amendment and the SCOTUS Lochner-Era Commerce Clause userpation of States Rights and abrogation of the rarely cited 10th Amendment, the never ending progressive zealots who infest Washington.

#9 A strong case can indeed be made for putting Lyndon Johnson at the top of the list. Cesare's assertion that Jawn Frickin Kerry is not worthy of being number one on any list is only one part of that case. I don't believe this country has ever fully recovered from LBJ's administration. The wounds from the Vietnam War are still painful and most key elements of his cynical Great Society are still in effect. I believe one of history's great ironies is LBJ's claim to be fighting communism in Vietnam while implementing socialist policies in America. His guns and butter policies nearly wrecked the economy and led directly to the inflation that still ravages our economy. My sincere hope is that LBJ is burning in hell.

I'm afraid that Joe Biden, by which I mean whatever group of communists pulls his strings (most likely including Baraq Obama), may end up as a strong contender.

#10 regarding his honorable mentions of Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin I'd say the Beetles beet them to the intro of drug culture.

#11 Timothy Leary disappointed to not make the cut.

#12 DarthVader nails it. Woodrow Wilson and his policy of "war socialism" gave conceptual birth to the progressive movement in a historical sense.
