Greatest Presidents that never were

[hawkeye59]

Who were the best presidents that never were? I'd say Robert La Follette, Robert F. Kennnedy, Edward M. Kennedy, Hubert H. Humphrey, Henry Clay, Paul Wellstone, Mario Cuomo, Al Gore, Eugene V. Debs, and Mo Udall. There's more, but that's all I'll say.

Ford doesn't count, as he was president.

I know, but it still doesn't count because he, at one point, was president,

I like this thread.

Newt Gingrich - Intelligent, but not Presidential; too partisan
Alexander Hamilton - Yes
Henry Clay - Yes
John C. Calhoun - A charismatic man and a great politician, but a horrible person
John McCain - 2000 version only
Bob Dole - lolno
