Three Virginia presidents make the list
Mental Floss has a listing of the 10 US presidents that historians have deemed the worst. Three of them, Zachary Taylor, William Henry Harrison, and John Tyler hail from Virginia.
Harrison, the 9th US president was born on the Berkley Virginia plantation was number 5 on the list. He was the first president to die in office (In less than 30 days) and made treaties with Native Americans that were never in their favor and forced them off of their ancestral lands.

John Tyler
Sixth on the list is the 10th US president, Tyler who was born to a prominent slave-holding family in Charles City, Virginia. He was Herison’s successor after serving as his Vice President and clashed with his party the Whigs. This led to his entire cabinet resigning.
When Virginia seceded from the Union in 1861 Tyler was elected to the Confederate House of Representatives which led to his former political colleagues in Washington, DC labeling him a traitor.
