If you could pick a U.S. president from the past to preside in current time, Who would you pick?

Okay, Dave, now I see, you're trying to still my answer! But it's okay, because Ronald Reagan was 'great president and man'. And there'll never be another like him. \n\n\n P.S.   Make sure to view your comments, Dave.

Probably George Washington.  He inhereted a country that was pretty much going to Hell in a handbasket and set it on the path to become what would become arguably the greatest country in the history of mankind.  I don't think George Bush, Bill Clinton or George Bush Sr. should be listed as answers here because insufficient time has really passed for their legacies (and the full consequences of their decisions) to be assessed.

I would say FDR. Because of helping to get the US out of the depression and creating Social Security. Even though it's that great it sure helps. And the only President to go three terms.

Anyone would be better then any Bush. But I prefer Hillary, she is a stong, intelligent woman not afraid to stand up for what is right. She would have one of the best advisers in the world in her husband, he is the last president to be elected legally and also the most successful in 40 years.

My favorite president is the one we have right now, Mr. George W. Bush. He's my favorite because he accomplished a feat that 6 years ago I would have thought impossible: making me wish Bill Clinton was still president.

Im going to have to go with John Kerry. Everyone knows he is a flip flop and he bats for both sides so Im giving him the slight advantage over George Washington because Kerry can be involved in gang bangs.

Here's an odd answer:  For recent times I would say Reagan, Clinton, and our current president Bush.\n\nFor first two for communications, and the current for raw guts.

George W. Bush\n2001-2009

Clinton.  He has a far more engaging personality, and is considerably more intelligent.  His personal ethics may not be the best, but as a diplomat I would much rather be represented by him than George Bush.

You could also be president of the United States.  Our current president has a felony background I believe.  He used(??) to be a cocaine addict.  Some say he still is.

George W. Bush. His dad was a president too.

Reagan. He gave America back it's pride. Had another weak president followed Carter, Ford, and Nixon this country would be much less than it is.

George Washington - founding father who fought and won against the British\n\nAbraham Lincoln - reluctantly freed many slaves\n\nFranklin Delano Roosevelt - mostly for his work during the Great Depression ("New Deal", Welfare State), but also for his WWII successes, and the initiation of the Manhattan Project\n\nGeorge W. Bush - worst president to date, no clue as to what the legacy he will leave our children in decades to come will be, taken US international name to new low standards, created the largest deficit in US history, president who took the most vacation while in office (and he's not done yet), started an illegal war in Iraq, broken many laws, no respect for the Constitution, etc. I could go on but I don't really need to...

Jimmy Carter\n\nHas great taste in Baseball teams,but as commander in chief,one of,if not the worst ever.Hostage crisis,inflation,and a general unwillingness to lead.
