How would you have voted?: United States Presidential Elections

[DPKdebator]

I'll only do post-WWII elections, since it would take forever for me to make a reasonable decision for most of the earlier ones.

1948: Thomas Dewey
1952: Dwight Eisenhower
1956: Dwight Eisenhower
1960: John F. Kennedy
1964: Lyndon B. Johnson
1968: Richard Nixon
1972: Richard Nixon
1976: Jimmy Carter (I would've liked his folksy common-man vibe and outsider status)
1980: John B. Anderson or Ronald Reagan
1984: Ronald Reagan
1988: Michael Dukakis (fun fact: my family has personal connections to the Dukakises; he and my grandmother worked together on JFK's campaign in 1960, so my grandmother and my mother worked on Dukakis's 1988 campaign)
1992: Ross Perot
1996: Bill Clinton
2000: George W. Bush
2004: George W. Bush (though I wouldn't have been enthusiastic about the neocon foreign policy)
2008: Barack Obama (this one would be an easier choice without hindsight)
2012: Mitt Romney
2016: Donald Trump
