I remember hearing in the 1970s the opinion that Henry Kissinger could surely have been President if he were eligible.

I'm curious about what other people in U.S. history y'all think could have been strong presidential candidates if only they were eligible.

Arnold Schwarzenegger probably would've done very well in 2004.

Schwarzenegger of course. Jennifer Granholm would be running this year if she could.

Hamilton was actually eligible for President.
