This is who I would vote for in every 20th century election based on my perspective as a progressive 22 year old. And I'm not going to pretend that I would vote third party every other election because this is hypothetical and it makes me look deep. I don't believe in throwing my vote away.

1900- McKinley (turned off by Bryan's populist rhetoric)
1904- Roosevelt (continuation of McKinley's legacy)
1908- Taft

1912- Roosevelt (disappointed with Taft, distrust of Wilson)
1916- Wilson (Rally around the flag vote)
1920- Cox (probably swayed by Roosevelt as VP)

1924- Coolidge (continuation of prosperity)
1928- Smith (I can see myself being turned off by the Catholic discrimination and vote for him in protest)
1932- Roosevelt (duh, this would probably be the start of my transition from Rep leaning to Dem leaning)
1936- Roosevelt
1940- Roosevelt (rally around the flag vote)
1944- Roosevelt (at this point, probably getting tired of him but I'd begrudgingly vote for him)
1948- Truman (undecided though, probably until a few days before election)

1952- Eisenhower (Time for a change)
1956- Eisenhower

1960- Kennedy (impressed by his youth)
1964- Johnson (Goldwater would have scared me)
1968- Humphrey (reluctant vote, probably unhappy with the Dem party but turned off by Nixon's silent majority argument)
1972- McGovern (probably not super jazzed about him, but I can see myself having a deep mistrust of Nixon)
1976- Carter (I'm a Georgia boy!)
1980- Carter

1984- Reagan (despite my beliefs, I find Reagan very endearing. Would vote for him but tell people I went for Mondale)
1988- Dukakis (would vote for him twice if I could because of my disgust with the Bush campaign)
1992- Clinton all the way
1996- Clinton
2000- Gore


And for the record, 1912 wouldn't be throwing my vote away. Roosevelt in the Bull Moose party is probably the strongest third party candidacy we've had in the 20th century

Primaries since 1960

1960- Initially support Johnson but eventually swayed by Kennedy's charms
1968-Bobby Kennedy (like JFK but more open with his liberalism and less hanky panky)
1972-Probably Muskie
1976-Carter (again, hometown hero)
1980- Maybe I would give a few glances toward Kennedy but ultimately stand by Carter
1984- Hart (This was before the monkey business scandal and he was one of the first high profile dems to represent what the dem coalition has become. Mondale was a relic of new deal politics)
1988- Definitely David Duke- kidding. Either Gore or Dukakis.
1992- Initially support Jerry Brown but would eventually realize that the party needed Clinton to help make inroads in the south
2000-Gore
2004-Edwards (PLEASE NOTE: This was before he was exposed as an evil human being)
2008-Obama (and this is NOT hypothetical)

Yes.

Some of these are admittedly strange, though that is because I did the list without hindsight, so a lot of that would have been voting on my own perceptions and the campaigning styles.

Did the Anti-Masonics stand for something you like, or were the other candidates just worse?

I'm guessing you'd vote for Lincoln if he hadn't been a Whig?

Dallasfan, did Debs' campaign appeal to you a lot more than Bryan's?

A little of both.
Henry Clay was too much of an advocate for high tariffs (though admittedly still a lesser evil than Andrew Jackson, who I might've voted for in 1828 due to the "common man" rhetoric of the Democratic Party before revealing himself to be a giant psychotic A-Hole) and the National Bank for me to feel comfortable voting for him.  Plus, Masons scare the sh*t out of me.  Seriously dude, they like worship Baal owl idols or something.  They freaks.

It's more of a difference in the Democratic candidate actually.
Buchanan would've come across as too pro-slavery for me to feel comfortable voting for in 1856.  Plus, no offense to Millard Fillmore (who was a total moderate hero) but I sure as hell wouldn't vote for the party whose platform was bigoted against my cultural background.  So, yeah I would end up voting for the perceived "radical" John Freemont in 1856.

In 1860 with Stephen Douglas being nominated, an advocate of "popular sovereignty" I would be more comfortable going over to the Northern Democratic side.  I might be favorable to the Constitutional Union side also, though a bit wary of the presence of former Whgis there.  A vote for Breckenridge or Lincoln I would think would be a vote towards Civil War, something that 1860 me wouldn't want to happen.

Interesting. That makes sense pretty much. I'm just wondering how much less fear there was of a Fremont presidency leading to civil war as compared to Lincoln.

There was fear of that happening in 1856, but the conditions in place weren't as drastic.  For one, there was a united Democratic ticket and not one split between North and South.  And the Democratic strength in the Senate was strong enough to moderate any attempt at "radical" legislation by the Republicans, who would also be greatly limited by other parties in the "Opposition" who viewed the issue os slavery with a distaste.  Whoever said "Whigs were pro-choice on slavery" had the right idea.

I think that despite the Whig Party's economic nationalism I probably would've been a Whig Psrty member at certain points in early; American history due to a combination of factors.  For one, King Jackson's presidency would've left me bitter at the Democrats and I would've viewed William Harrison as the "common man's candidate" in 1836 and 1840.  I have nothing against Martin Van Buren personally, but I would've thought like many of my time that he was "heir appointed" by Jackson to succeed him.

I probably would've been a Hugh White Whig with anti-slavery sympathies.  IN other words, a former Northern Democratic Republican who could never fit into the parties that existed from 1828-1860.

The banksters of course waged the same sort of press campaign against Jackson as they would against a hypothetical President Ron Paul, but I'd expect you at least not to fall for that...

Oh right, so the banksters lied about Andrew Jackson giving State's Rights the finger in the Nullification Crisis, forcibly moving tens of thousands of people halfway across the country, and expanding the Spoils System that would lead to "appointment by familiarity" instead of appointment by qualification?

The two things Andrew Jackson did right was advocating universal white male suffrage and disabling the National Bank.  Doesn't exactly make him a Wilson (quite the opposite in a way actually), but not exactly a Coolidge either.

FF, on balance.  He didn't "try to subvert American Democracy and turn it into American Monarchy" (which would be a good thing), in fact he created the notion that everything ought to be put to a popular referendum (his main long-term negative legacy besides his violent assault on states' rights).  The retarded Whig attack was because he (horrors of horrors) vetoed bills favored by the Whigs (all such bills were of the authoritarian dipsh**ttery category).

If it were not for Indian Removal (carried out under Van Buren, not Jackson) the Georgia militia (which outnumbered the US standing army of the time) would've massacred the five civilized tribes.  It was clearly the lesser evil, and the "third option" was not really an option (which is why it's only recent historians who've decided to passive-aggressively attack him on that even though it's really his economic policies they dislike).  Furthermore, several other POTUSes (most notably Lincoln and Grant) pursued much more violent policies towards the Indians than Jackson.

The spoils system was mostly Van Buren, but having the federal bureaucracy be easily bribed and replaced every few years was a (relative) good thing.
