It could be Marion Barry from D.C. He was/is a gangster.
And anyone from Louisiana or Chicago.

Chicago? Seriously? Who are you talking about?
Hmmm, let me guess.
We had Mayor Richard J. Daley
Mayor Jane Byrne
Mayor Harold Washington
Senator Barak Obama
Representative Rahm Emmanuel
Mayor Richard M. Daley
Take your pick. Latest Richie Daley did some good for the city. He tried to get the Olympics. They blame Obama for that.
So, which off that list is your pick?

Funny, I thought about Mayor Daly when I first saw the thread title.
But my nomination would be Robert S. McNamara - started (and messed up) the Vietnam War, ended production of the 55-57 classic 2-seater Thunderbird, and personally ordered the end of production (and destruction of the tooling for) the record-setting SR-71 Blackbird spy plane.
Honorable mention to Richard M. Nixon who lost the presidency simply for being a bald-faced liar.

Why don't you shorten the list considerably and ask, "Who is the BEST politician that you can recall"...
unless, of course, the sound of crickets would be upsetting to you...

Tony Blair and Gordon Brown in the UK!! Both selfserving pigs!! Messed the country up and done a runner for us all to pick up bill .
Diesel is £1.31 a llitre or £6.00 a gallon now!! Start the blockades of the oil depots again is what I say, oh forgot to mention the tax on a litre of fuel is now £0.72p to the government!!
HHG needs a payrise

In the UK - Tony Blair. He did more damage to the country in a decade than our combined enemies could have inflicted in a century.
Gordon Brown for a close second.

Edited again - Great minds think alike HHG!

Some people seem to say Brown was not the sharpest tool.
