Lincoln/Washington. Washington would win since Lincoln and FDR would split the liberal vote while Washington would solidly win the conservative vote.

I was thinking Lincoln as the Republican, FDR as the Democrat, and Washington as an Indy. But that's just me.

Washington was the most ideologically conservative out of those three. Thus, he should be the Republican. As for the Democrat, it could be either Lincoln or FDR.

Lincoln was a manipulative sociopath who was on several anti-depressants and mood stabilizers. Washington was a slave owner who hid his slaves from public view while he was president.

Using modern standers to judge people who lived hundreds of years ago is terrible.

Exactly. Times were different back then. Besides, Washington always treated his slaves humanely and left a provision in his will that freed his slaves after his wife's death. And I'm not sure I would call Lincoln a manipulative sociopath. Any proof you have for that? Oh, and Lincoln freed the slaves.
