Eh, it's not that hard when you think more in terms of views instead of parties. If you look at that candidate list, most of the people I voted for lean to the right or at least center. My vote for Roosevelt  can be explained as being a response to Hoover's failure and incompetent meddling in the economy. My vote for Clinton can be explained by his cutting welfare, crime, etc. and relative moderation compared to his opponent. My votes for Gore and Kerry can be explained as responses to Bush's obvious incompetence and general satisfaction with the Clinton years.

Thanks a lot, glad to have discovered a republican that prefers to vote for a moderate democrat than for an incompetent republican extremist. Smiley

*Mostly for lack of better options
^I would've absolutely agonized over 1956. The Stevenson/Kefauver ticket is adamantly progressive, but at that time President Eisenhower had developed major public infrastructure programs, increased taxes on the wealthy and was already decrying the military industrial complex. Probably would've tossed a coin.
§Ticket I actually voted for.

Who I would've supported in Democratic primaries:

1952: Estes Kefauver
1956: Adlai Stevenson
1960: John F. Kennedy
1968: Robert F. Kennedy
1972: Edmund Muskie
1976: Mo Udall
1980: Ted Kennedy
1984: John Glenn
1988: Paul Simon
1992: Paul Tsongas
2000: Al Gore
2004: Howard Dean
2008: Barack Obama
2016: Hillary Rodham Clinton
