If you could make any president in the past todays president, who would it be?

FDR. There's a reason why he was elected four times in a row.gameguy6700

Probably one of our legendary presidents like Millard Filmore, Franklin Pierce, Rutherford B. Hayes, Zach Taylor, William Henry Harrison, or the ever rememberable chester arthur.

Martin Van Buren: So forgettable, people don't even remember him when they're thinking of forgettable presidents.

therefore didn't realize that doing nothing was actually the best option. BMD004

Thomas Jefferson or Abraham Lincoln.

There was one man, an expert organizer and a detail-oriented number cruncher, with impeccable credentials, who would do very well in the midst of these budget disputes. fidosim

That man could assess the budget, but this man



could beat it down with a cane.

Just saying.

JFK- If we could pull him into the present and throw him in Office then "maybe" there wouldn't be so much beating around the bush. And I'd throw in FDR too.

Most past presidents would be much too old fashioned for today and have a poor understanding of how things work these days. Bill Clinton is probably the best bet, he's probably the most successful president in the last 30 years.Ace6301

He road off the success of the net boom, and USSR boom

As president he brought shame to the white house, left Somali too early, and pushed one of the biggest bull***** bills of all.

RIH(rest in hell) Clinton Gun ban. You aren't missed

Lincoln...we need more epic beard in office

Obama. There is a genuineness to his approach. In addition he thinks before he speaks or acts.Diablo-B

I'm rather partial to Taft. What a man. Yup. What a big man.

Your wish can come true, seeing as he is able to run for the next presidency.

I can't say I miss Clinton either.

Far and away Thomas Jefferson. FDR is a distant second.

George Washington. The guy could have been KING, but he turned it down. He did what needed to be done (be President) and stepped aside when the job was done. He didn't do it for the power, or because he wanted the job, but because he was asked to.

Yes, Teddy Roosevelt was a hardcore MF, and Eisenhower was a war hero... but they asked for the job, they sought out the power.

Only one real choice here: Washington for President in 2012.

Thomas Jefferson or Calvin Coolidge

Actually Teddy was first VP, and he didn't even want to be VP at first either.:P

How about the one and only Andrew Jackson? He takes my pick for stardom in my book 8)

FDR he could help fix our economy without having to give up the American way. Or Abraham Lincoln because I love that man and what he did so much.

George Washington ftw.

Buchanan, obviously.

I don't think FDR would be very effective today. Seriously. Imagine the opposition the Republicans would put up against him.

[QUOTE="AmericanMuffin"]I liked George Bush's weird face, but he was also a great president, so I choose him.Star67

Bush was horrible and his grandfather helped the Nazis.

Anyway, Ill go with Ronald Reagan

Watergate?

[QUOTE="taj7575"]

He definitely was a great President. He was very open minded with his beliefs, was a very smart individual, and believed in religious and individual freedom. I say one of the few mistakes he did though, was doing nothing about slavery once he was in office, even though he was known to be so vocal against it, even during the signing of the Declaration. He could have brought an end to it very early.

BMD004

His solution for slavery was to put all non-white Americans on a boat to the Caribbean as he didn't think multiracial societies could exist. He kept hundreds of slaves himself as well.

On topic... I almost added Lincoln to the ticket, too, but I'm not sure we have any slaves to free (other than slaves to fashion).

Thomas Jefferson.

battlefront23

This guy has it right

Ron Paul :D

Bill Clinton....last time he followed a Bush in office he got the deficit down.LJS9502_basic

I agree with this.

I'd say Clinton because he is damn good at what he does and because he's alive as opposed to the many dead guys I could pick. Though it would be easy to dodge blame if you are dead.

JFK, Nixon, or Abraham Lincoln

[QUOTE="Digital_DJ_00"]

[QUOTE="BMD004"]In a way, he was kind of right. Multiracial societies have plenty of racial problems. Even the melting-pot that is the USA still has racial problems.BMD004

JFk or Franklin Roosevelt... or Millard Fillmore just because of his name.
