If you could pick the president, right here, right now... how would it be?

[CalebHayes]

You get to choose. ANYONE!

How about a candidate and someone who is not running.

[CalebHayes]

1. Candidate: Sharpton non: Robert F Kennedy JR

[dawgman]

2. Kucinich/ wellstone

[ET Awful]

6. I'll second that. n/t

[Wickerman]

8. I'd like Wellstone at the top of the ticket n/t

[in_cog_ni_to]

12. I LOVE that man.

He would probably have been our president in 2004. He was so wonderful. :(

[genius]

41. I'll have to second RFK, Jr. He's phenomenal.

If you get a chance, go see him speak.

[MrSlayer]

3. Clark or Myself.

I'm not old enough yet though.

[robsul82]

4. Candidate: Dean...

Anybody: Gore. Or Millard Fillmore. Hehe...rhymed.

Later.

RJS

[Walt Starr]

5. Dean or Gore

:D

[JoePizz]

7. Darth Vader

OK, so he is a fictional mass murdering megalomaniac... But he's still better than Bush.

Plus he has a snazy wardrobe and his own theme song.

[JVS]

13. Hell yeah!

[Crunchy Frog]

38. Thats a pretty good choice too. n/t

[in_cog_ni_to]

9. President Wesley Clark. n/t

10. Howard Dean and Carol Mosley Braun

electability be damned!!!
and it doesn't matter in this case because I get to pick

[ThomWV]

11. Wesley Clark

[knight_of_the_star]

14. Ladies and Gentlemen...

President Wesley Clark!!!

And if I could pick ANYONE, dead or alive, I would pick FDR. But Clark is just as good.

[JVS]

23. FDR zombie as preseident! Sweet!

[mgmartin]

15. WKC

Clark

[sallyseven]

17. I would pick Kerry & Robert Kennedy.

Both my kind of president.

[question everything]

16. Bill Clinton n/t

[CalebHayes]

18. Dr. Evil!

[rucky]

19. Bob Dylan

[meti57b]

20. President Wesley Clark and Vice President John Kerry

A requirement would be that the other Democratic candidates are highly placed in the administration, if they are willing.

[morgan2]

21. george w bush

he'll kill more of those wacky iraqis.

[denverbill]

27. That's a very good question. And I don't know the answer.

I've gotta admit that I don't know enough about some of the Democrats that would be good. I agree with alot of what I hear from Feingold, but I really don't know where he stands on many, many issues. Same with virtually every other non-candidate this year.

Frankly, I think Kucinich's views most closely match mine, but he just doesn't impress me as Presidential/Executive material. Maybe it's unfair, but he doesn't have the charismatic, forceful presence of a leader.

Dean I obviously like, but is he my 'ideal' candidate? No, I disagree with him on many issues. I want to go further and faster on national health care, I believe in gun control, I think NAFTA/free trade really needs a good redo, etc.

It would be interesting to have a website President selector match that included every Democrat, not just the announced candidates.

[hippywife]

22. Same person I already voted for...Kucinich. n/t

[SadEagle]

24. Candidate:Dean Not running:Feingold

Yey for spine!

[funky_bug]

25. My brother-in-law, and my hubby as VP

I swear, you get in a room with those two, and it's hard to keep up. They know more about this system than some of the candidates running for the spot. They're liberal, knowledgable, compassionate, intelligent, and creative.

Of course, I'd want my hubby (the younger of the two) as VP, so he could run for PREZ in 2012. More time in the big house, you see.

(Did I mention my birthday is coming up in like, 10 days, and I'm gunning for a really, REALLY nice present?)

[BringEmOn]

26. Wes Clark and John F. Kennedy

[LouisFC]

28. Clark

I choose Wes Clark.

[JohnKleeb]

29. here goes

Kucinich, non candiate who isnt running do they have to be alive, well I would take RFK or Wellstone as my not living and still living, gimme Bernie Sanders.

[andym]

30. Clark or Feingold

[elperromagico]

31. FDR's reanimated corpse.

[slinkerwink]

32. Dean, Gore

[Fridays Child]

33. Yep. I agree. And...

...how hard they would work to undo the damage done by the neocons can be measured by how badly they have both been smeared in the press.

[goodhue]

34. Dennis John Kucinich

I can think of no non-candidate I would prefer.

[mandyky]

35. Howard Dean with

Carol Mosley Braun as VP

[Ilsa]

36. Clark. Hands-down. n/t

[Crunchy Frog]

37. Wesley K. Clark n/t

[laruemtt]

39. Clark / Kuch

wouldn't that be some team? the general working with the department of peace!

[genius]

40. Dennis Kucinich, Edward Kennedy

Kucinich is best. Kennedy has the best voting record in the Senate.

[revcarol]

42. Kucinich/Sanders

Kucinich/Wellstone

The buck stops here Truman/Kucinich

[Crunchy Frog]

43. GrovelBot! n/t

[Piperay]

44. Bill Clinton

I would like to see him take charge again, I know it is impossible cause he served his limit but I can dream. :-)
