GG Bush.

Yeah. Because Clinton made hundred billion dollar payments, which was cool. As long as you're willing to overlook the fact that he was taking trade surplus from NAFTA and giving it to other countries instead of putting it into our own economy. And the fact that he dumped the huge tax gains from the Tech Boom and .com Boom into debt payment to other countries, rather than our own economy. Oh, and we also can't forget that he nearly halved the American military to make those debt payments. Yeah, that surplus sure did rock.. at destablizing the American economy. No better way to screw yourself than to give too much money to other people that you get no return on.

Oh, and for the record, because the media never seems to mention this, especially not the blessed-by-God-Himself Liberals (which they deny in order to maintain Separation of Church and State):

The United States of America isn't even in the Top 20 nations for Debt-to-GDP Ratio, the most realistic portrayal of a nation's financial position in relation to debt. Also, if we collected all the debt owed us by other nations, we could pay off our own debt three times.

Much like chicken, Collegegood4u.
