Everyone is talking about election season and the 2024 United States presidential election, the big rematch between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, but instead of asking who am I voting for in 2024, I've been asked who would I vote for in every U.S presidential election ever across history. From George Washington to the upcoming 2024 election, I'll reveal who I would vote for in every U.S Presidential Election. Watch to find out my reasoning behind these choices and see how my voting preferences have changed throughout the years!

If I may share, I think I would have voted for Teddy Roosevelt in all three of his runs for President, alongside Alf Landon in 1936. Both due to their Anti Racist policies as well as both being at the Moderate Center and or Center Left. I'll admit, I admire Roosevelt as possible one of the greatest leaders and men in all of history, but I do think Landon would have been a just as good a President as well. And Teddy Roosevelt was awesome, of course.

Just a correction about the New York electors of 1788: it wasn't that they forgot. What actually happened is that in NY, it was the legislature that picked the electors. However, the feds controlled one house, and the anti-feds controlled the other and they couldn't break the deadlock before the deadline to send electoral votes.

It would change a lot of things. They would have pushed way more government control policies which would have angered the southern states who prefer more states rights over federal. This could possibly lead to a breaking of the union and possibly civil war. The war of 1812 most likely wouldn't have happened. These are just some of the things that in my opinion most likely would have happened.

It also is strange he picked Adlai Stevenson again in 1956. He lost by a landslide in 1952 so I wonder why anyone thought for him again was a good idea and the economy and war in Korea was over. And he picked James Buchanan in 1856?! He should have abstain and not vote for neither like in 2000 election. And he picks Richard Nixon over Dwight Eisenhower when Nixon was full of more scandals?! Picking Herbert Hoover after his mess of the Great Depression of 4 years?! Many odd picks on this list. I am surprised he prefers nuclear weapon bombing Barry Goldwater

It's time... RULES: 1) I am voting with *0 HINDSIGHT*... I feel it's unfair to do this *knowing* what one candidate would accomplish and what one candidate *said* he would accomplish. So for example: whilst I *would* vote for Nixon in 1972, I wouldn't vote for Nixon if I actively knew what his campaign was doing behind the scenes. 2) I *MUST* vote... No going around and saying "meh we not votin today" 3) I am voting *COMPLETELY* on what the candidate ran on. So for example: even though Martin van Buren was a below average President, I will be voting for him because he was anti-slavery. 4) I am only judging candidates who won more than 5% of the popular vote in that given year's election or won electoral votes. So no voting for some random ass third -- nay *FOURTH* party candidate! For ease I will be highlighting which candidate I am picking, and placing the candidate which won IRL on top and with the candidate that lost on the bottom... and all the useless third parties which NEVER WIN... Let us begin... 1788: *George Washington* v. Nobody "ermmm akshully it was 1789" SHUT THE HELL UP 1792: *George Washington* v. Nobody We all love George W. 1796 *John Adams* v. Thomas Jefferson I am in lockstep with much of the Federalist's plans for government. The federal government *needed* to be strengthened to simply keep the country alive back in those days, and alongside this I am all for industrialization, promoting commerce, and aligning with Great Britain. 1800 John Adams v. *Thomas Jefferson* Despite my earlier things said about the Federalists... John Adams and the Alien and Sedition Act was completely unwarranted and goes against the values and spirit of the constitution and the Declaration of Independence. Whilst I disagree with Jefferson and his weird, "Living in an Amish Paradise," Adams completely ruined the ethos of what America was built on (me casually ignoring Jefferson had slaves:). I also find it quite sad that multiple founding fathers (including George Washington) endorsed the Aliens and Sedition Act :(... 1804 Thomas Jefferson v. *Charles Pickney* I love muh federalists... also he seems just like a total guy you could vibe with... y'know? 1808 James Madison v. *Charles Pickeny* Muh federalists... 1812 *James Madison* v. DEW IT Clinton With the background of the War of 1812, I feel we need to rally around the President. Britain fragrantly interfering with our commerce is completely unacceptable and must be stopped. Freedom of the seas and all that. 1816 *James Monroe* v. Rufus King Y'know with my whole grandstanding about Federalists earlier, I feel like the Democratic-Republicans are more getting to my style as the decades wear on. Especially after the War of 1812, Democratic-Republicans allowed the establishment of a national bank to help the nation and moving towards a protectionist economy. Plus, I just love James Monroe! 1820 *James Monroe* v. Nobody Era of good feelings is really dope and alongside this the Democratic-Republicans were finally starting to get productive, with them supporting federally funded infrastructure projects! very based... in sound logic and reasoning. Alongside this, I love uniparty rule! I love one party states!!! Amen!!! 1824 *John Quincy Adams* v. Andrew Jackson v. William Crawford v. Henry Clay NOOOOO MY ERA OF GOOD FEELINGS. My top choices would either be John Quincy Adams or Henry Clay. But I feel like I'd vote for John Quincy Adams in all honesty. I love my political elitism! 1828: Andrew Jackson v. *John Quincy Adams* I prefer Adams and his policies over Andrew Jackson. Also Andrew Jackson's hate for the national banks always dampens my mood on him. Though I will admit, Jackson and his populist political programs (guaranteed white suffrage) is very good, but this was already slowly happening in all the states so I feel this isn't a major point for him. 1832: Andrew Jackson v. *Henry Clay* v. John Floyd v. William Wirt Same arguments against Jackson again showed above, since Henry Clay and JQA were basically near alignment in policy and ideology. Also for those asking who are the other two people? Well John Floyd is a South Carolina butthurt that Jackson actually discharged his duties as President and William Wirt is apart of the anti-Masonic Party, which I have almost 0 knowledge about (apparently they coalesced with whigs later). *NOTE: Going to start labelling parties from now on.* 1836: Martin Van Buren (D) v. William Henry Harrison (W) v. Hugh L. White (W) v. *Daniel Webster* (W) v. Willie P. Magnum (W) Love the first election the Whigs participate in... they ALL START FIGHTING EACH OTHER (edit: I just made my decision on Webster, and apparently this was a deliberate Whig strategy on getting a contingent election??? This is all from wikipedia, but if this is true these mf'ers are actually stupid)!!! Anyway, I am opposed to van Buren due to his policies in regard to infrastructure built by the federal government and his strict constructionism in the constitution. So the big question is... who do I support out of the 4? I do not support Willie P. Magnum and Hugh L. White as they are southerner's/state's rights and oppose federal infrastructure, plus much of their political careers were built on siding with South Carolina in nullification. This leaves Harrison and Webster, who both have the same political views, but I would side with Monsieur Z. in this case and side with Webster. Webster actually has political experience and we aren't entirely sure on what Harrison believes. 1840: *William Henry Harrison* (W) v. Martin Van Buren (D) Van Buren mishandled the economy + is stinky so no. 1844: *James K. Polk* (D) v. Henry Clay (W) This is probably the toughest call. If I was alive during that time I would be a whig in all honesty, but manifest destiny... Sea to shining sea.... I cannot live in an America without California or Oregon (ok maybe not California) -- so I must go with Polk. The Whigs were anti-annexation of Texas as well so.... 1848: Zachary Taylor (W) v. Lewis Cass (D) v. *Martin Van Buren* (Free Soil) I was ticked when I learned Henry Clay didn't get the nomination compared to Zachary Taylor but... LIFE LAUGH LOVE!!! Anyway, I would choose Martin Van Buren and the Free Soil Party solely for their position on slavery. Other than that, I would choose Zachary Taylor for actual policy (though it was highly speculative at the time if Zachary Taylor actually believed in the things he was saying). 1852: Franklin Pierce (D) v. *Winfield Scott* (W) I'm a whig... so Winfield Scott. Plus I just love Winfield Scott as a character 1856: James Buchannan (D) v. *John C. Fremont* (R) v. Millard Fillmore (Know-Nothings) Fremont and the Republican party seemed like the best party in this election to deal with slavery. Plus with them basically continuing the economic policies of the Whigs, I feel they would also be best to serve the country. I am kind of attracted to the Know-Nothings on some policy issues, but they are just racists let's be honest here. And honestly, Republicans just share a lot of positions with the Know-Nothings but are just better. 1860: *Abraham Lincoln* (R) v. The South (TM) Abe all the way baby! Though personal shoutout to Stephen Douglass that man is kind of dope. 1864: *Abraham Lincoln* (R) v. George McClellan (D) Lincoln be better m8... 1868: *Ulysses S. Grant* (R) v. Horatio Seymour (D) Grant of course. When I was doing ""research"" (looking at friggin wikipedia articles) it was very startling how close it was. Considering Seymour's campaign was openly anti-black and racist, and the democrats legit caused the civil war... 5 percentage points??? Wow 1872: *Ulysses S. Grant* (R) v. Horace Greely (Liberal Republican) Despite allegations of corruption, I believe I would still vote for Grant (even with historical hindsight he was unassociated with them -- but too be fair he should have known). Horace Greely's position is way too weird, and him being stategically endorsed by the Democrats... yeah just be safe and stick to grant. 1876: *Rutherford B. Hayes* (R) v. Samuel J. Tilden (D) Me supporting reconstruction would obviously align with Hayes. Plus, I just like the guy!!! Civil War hero (on the right side) and he did really good as governor of Ohio. 1880: *James A. Garfield* (R) v. Winfield Scott Hancock I LOVE THE GOP I LOVE THE GOP I LOVE THE GOP I LOVE THE GOP 1884: *Grover Cleveland* (D) v. James G. Blaine (R) Ok I love the GOP but... Blaine is (probably) corrupt. I would be hesitant to vote for him, so I would rather cast for Cleveland. 1888: *Benjamin Harrison* (R) v. Grover Cleveland With no issues of corruption tainting the campaign, I would revert to supporting the GOP. Man I love tarrifs!!! 1892: Grover Cleveland (D) v. *Benjamin Harrison* (R) v. James B. Weaver (Populist) Despite McKinley's 1890 Tariff (which I hope everyone would agree was waaaaaaaaaaay to execesive with it being below just 50%), I would still side with the GOP. Also Weaver is chill.' 1896: William McKinley (R) v. *William Jennings Bryan* (D) Despite what Mr. Z was saying in the video... this IS a tough pick. McKinley is responsible for raising tariffs to just below 50% (which is an insane number -- and had big time economic distress upon the country) and him being a man of the trusts. Y'know I was thinking about this for like 10 minutes and was going about how hard of a choice this is... but it isn't. ALL THE WAY WITH WJB!!! WJB is anti-trust, anti-big business, anti-elitism, AND anti-ANTI-AMERICAN!!! He's a populist (and a midwesterner) and whilst I disagree with him heavily on tariffs and silver... WE NEED TO SHAKE THINGS UP!!! CAN I GET AN AMEN!?! 1900: William McKinley (R) v. *William Jennings Bryan* (D) ALL THE WAY WITH WJB!!!! *Comment is getting too long, continuing in replies*

*Comment is getting too long, continues here:* 1904: *Theodore Roosevelt* (R) v. Alton B. Parker I feel Theodore Roosevelt is the perfect mix of my monetary policy and my governmental policy. Not only does he believe that businesses should be protected, tariffs should be high, and our jobs shan't he shipped overseas, he also believes that the American people deserve a Square Deal that we ought to have, and, finally, breaking up dem daemn trusts! Theodore has my vote! 1908: *William Howard Taft* (R) v. William Jennings Bryan (D) NOOOOO BRYAN RAN AGAIN!!! Now it's tough.... Whilst Taft represents the more conservative and business elite of the Republican Party... he was still very much anti-trust and wanted to continue his predecessor's policies. He was good friends with Roosevelt after all! And with Roosevelt's endorsement, I think that would assuage all my fears about him. And though I love WJB... free silver and populism is not all that needed anymore. We don't need some righteous crusader in government anymore. Taft is a good pick, and besides... it's not like their is going to be some HUGE split between the business wing and progressive side of the Republican party... right? 1912: Woodrow Wilson (D) v. *Theodore Roosevelt* (Progressive) v. William Howard Taft (R) v. Eugene Debs (Socialist) Looking back on all my votes, whilst I would be a firm Republican during this time period (IGNORING WJB....), agreeing with them on almost all monetary and governmental policy, their is an allure in Roosevelt's New Nationalism plan. Alongside this, this man completely dominated all the state primaries and was only defeated in the business citadel of Massachusetts. My only concerns about Roosevelt are two things: 1) his calls for a constitutional amendment for Congress/the President to reneg on SCOTUS decisions or even trump their decisions. This I feel is a gigantic slap in the face to the power of SCOTUS, already in my opinion the weakest branch of government. And it's not like the President and Congress DON'T have a huge amount of checks on the Supreme Court... like I DON'T KNOW..... APPOINTING THEM!? Finally, my biggest concern over Roosevelt is his personality. He's very.... ermmm... demagogish. A lot of this is, rightfully pointed out by pundits at the time, is his ego. And he's breaking the two term tradition of Washington (though to be fair he didn't have two full terms but I digress)! Taft would be a close second pick, but I would have to ultimately with Roosevelt. Though a quick mention has to be made, the Democrats (especially with WJB's stand for populism) are slowly turning the entire party around, and making it more... appealing..? to vote for. Just saying. *Will continue at a later date... If I remember...*

@@JonathanGoedeke hehehaw 1904: *Theodore Roosevelt* (R) v. Alton B. Parker Roosevelt is the perfect blend of populism and common sense I have been looking for in the Republican Party since William Jennings Bryan started making a hand for the nomination. The GOP has the right economic model in mind (though somewhat wrong as they basically praise monopolies) but completely betrayed the American public by refusing to embrace the demands of the people. Roosevelt represents common sense economic policy whilst also a Fair Deal for all Americans. Also... Parker who? Parker who asked! Am I not wrong? Roosevelt has proven himself to be my type of Republican and he has earned by vote! 1908: *William Howard Taft* (R) v. William Jennings Bryan (D) Taft is seen as more aligned with the conservative/financial wing of the party. This would obviously raise concerns for my third way independent socialist capitalist monarchist utopian populistic vision I have for the country. However, I feel the endorsement of Roosevelt would assuage my fears. I know I've been super hawkish on Bryan but... his vision simply isn't for the country anymore. Well, I'd contend I never even really agreed to it. Bryan was sort of a knee jerk reaction to the insane amount of greed and inequality perpetuated by the New York business class. However, with that now starting to finally be wiped away by the REPUBLCIAN Party I'd feel they'd earn my vote. Plus, I always agreed with them more on economic policy then whatever the Democrats cooked. 1912: Woodrow Wilson (D) v. Theodore Roosevelt (P) v. *William Howard Taft* (R) v. Eugene V. Debbs (S) Ok.... This is going to be tough. I believe it is clear to everyone who I will not be voting for, that is Wilson (also Debbs). Also, IK this is a tangent, but people REALLY need to stop bashing Wilson for literally just taking a deep breath. ANYWAY, my choice is split between two candidates: Taft and Roosevelt. The thing is, all of Roosevelt's policy proposals are completely reasonable. From the direct election of senators, to making the income tax legal, an 8 hour work day, or even the thoughts of social security. This is a culture shock yes... but this is all completely fair! The only thing is the dig towards government backed healthcare. But Roosevelt's New Nationalism policy is, in my mind, completely reasonable. Now many will attack Taft for being some fat cat pawn of Wall Street. But this is completely untrue! Their is a reason why Roosevelt picked him to be his Vice Presidential nominee. Taft was just a diet version of Roosevelt... in a metaphorical sense of course. And as Monsieur Z points out in his video, Taft did surpass Roosevelt on certain things like busting up more trusts compared to Roosevelt. In fact, people on Wall Street met with Taft directly to grovel at his feet saying... "No... please! Let us ruin the lives of millions of Americans!!!" Also... it was HIM who called on Congress to push the income tax through. But this is where my choice became clear. Roosevelt has a lot of great policies, but Taft is the more sensible head in this argument. Yes, Roosevelt has that cool sheen to him but that isn't enough (I know this is rich coming from me justifying my choice from William Jennings Bryan). But finally, this is my biggest indictment against Roosevelt: he is a demagogue. He panders to the crowd and simply wants power for himself. He ruined his close political ally just because of some petty squabbles. He tried to break the three term tradition of Washington. And finally, he even openly floats the idea of recalling justices on the Supreme Court. This man has the largest ego on Earth, and I frankly don't want to place the Presidency in his hands when you look at these things. In my heart... I know he's right.... but in my guts I know he's nuts. 1916: Woodrow Wilson (D) v. *Charles Evan Hughes* (R) This election is messy... Me personally, despite it being against the current I'd be hawkish and pushing for intervention in Europe. Y'know... it's America's destiny.... to spread *freahdom* around the world. So I'd be apart of the "Preparedness" movement headed by Hughes but... honestly.... this election would be confusing as hell. Hughes is like "ermmm... we should be prepared for war!!!" but then attack Wilson's intervention in Mexico? And then he'd go around and be like "hermm durr I love big business!" Hughes is definitely a New Englander candidate but, based on party loyalties and in reaction to the Democrats cutting tariffs I will be staying on the party line. 1920: *Warren G. Harding* (R) v. James Cox (D) Again... another messy election. Wilson's bait and switch would annoy me greatly. Whilst I am pro-interventionist, the fact he started out as an isolationist and all of the sudden spear heading a major international organization would annoy me to no ends. Alongside that, the simple fact of the matter is I do NOT like Democrat policies, plain and simple, Therefore... I will support a return to normalcy... a RETURN to Republican rule! 1924: *Calvin Coolidge* (R) v. John W. Davis (D) v. La Follette (P) My reasons for voting Republican remain the same: I simply align with them more compared to the other parties. Whilst I do agree that the Republican Party is getting a bit too conservative for my liking, their is no reason for voting for a firebrand like La Follette. In my mind he is too extreme for my view. And who the hell is going to vote for a Democrat anyway? Also I love silent cal! 1928: *Herbert Hoover* (R) v. Al Smith (D) Whilst Al Smith would lead me in with his Catholicism (many I sure do love tribalism!)... the simple fact of the matter is Republicans better. Also I love Herbert Hoover! 1932: *Franklin Delano Roosevelt* (D) v. Herbert Hoover (R) I would like to go on a bit of a tangent here directed towards Monsieur Z. It doesn't matter really how much you justify it.... bro crashed the economy! But anyway, my reasons for voting Democratic are simple.... GOP CRASHED THE ECONOMY!!! Like need I say more? I will make a side note: the GOP is getting a bit too conservative over the years. They offer nothing but the same old schlop from last year's elections, whilst the Democrats promise a rainbow of hope. Again, this is just a sidenote. I'm simply pointing out the coming departure....

@@thewhitehousevietsubarchiv2625 Yes, you’re right, and the Jeffersonian position was that you need power to check power, ambition to check ambition, interest to check interest. You cannot conserve the traditional American order by giving most power to one man in the executive office, or by giving it all to one government. The ratifiers of the Constitution expected that the States would be powerful enough to check the federal government and to keep it in line when it stepped beyond its constitutional limits. The States cannot do that unless they have power and sovereignty of their own. That’s what States’ rights are about. The Richmond Junto envisioned a judicial system where each State judiciary was on equal footing with the federal judiciary, and each had an equal right to interpret the Constitution. Such a system would require the common law to be extracted not merely from the majority opinion of the federal Supreme Court, but from the concurrent majority of all the State courts. That decentralized system would be more nuanced and slower than our current one, but you can have almost complete certainty it would have conserved the constitution far better than the top-down approach we have now.

The man saw what happened with appeasement, it was the largest war which humanity had ever faced. Do I believe it needed to be taken to the extent it did? Perhaps not, but Eisenhower also noticed the issues of the MIC, and I can respect the times.

I agree with you on the need for a strong, federal government. But I disagree on the “America first” mentality. Since WWI, we’re so interconnected with the rest of the world, that we can’t think like that. That doesn’t mean we ignore our domestic problems, but constantly putting ourselves first is the reason why the US refuses to cooperate with the globe on global issues like trade, scientific research, diplomacy, climate change, etc. I believe the world is getting more interconnected, and the more we use our physical isolation as a justification for our political isolation, the more we’ll find that we will be left out of the playing field.

But forty-five years of being the war hawks have left significant stamps on how we think about things, and so we still don't mess around with people who mess with us, even if we're no longer as concerned about second and third-world allies like Ukraine, Israel, etc. At least, that's how I analyze the situation.

Also your country is facing a terrible migrant crisis due to Biden's stupid border policies and now Uncle Joe wants to bring back the Trump era policy through that border bill which ironically was obstructed by Congressional Republicans on Trump's orders.

Interesting concept. I find it difficult to come up with a list myself, since that'd require me taking several hours of research to make an informed decision on all 50+ elections. Also I was born and raised in Ohio, and I don't own property, so I wouldn't be able to vote until 1821, and even if I did, I wouldn't be able to vote as a Ohioan until 1803 or if I used my current state of Indiana, 1816. What I can speak to is I'd be partial to the regionalism of the Jeffersonians and then later more so the Jacksonians. I'd be concerned about "a Britain on our own soil", and that'd influence how I vote. I would disagree with antagonizing Britain, but I'd prefer that over becoming the very thing we broke away from. Midwesterners might also influence how I vote, but since I have an "immigrant" background, I'd probably be alienated by nativist candidates as well. I use "immigrant" in this case being "not Anglo-American", my family was largely Czech/Bohemian in origin. I don't know how Czechs were perceived in the States historically, but I would imagine they were given the German treatment, since they rode in with the German immigration wave (even coming from Bremen, Germany). As far as foreign policy, I'd think after 1914, it would be pointless to be isolationist, especially if we were supplying one side or the other. Isolationism would be dead by 1941, even if it antagonized our enemies, I'd support being active globally. I'd be concerned if we didn't, we'd embolden our enemies to act across the world themselves, the effects of which would eventually get to us sooner or later. I don't think leaving the initiative to our enemies is a good idea, but if they're pacified we can be more effective at home since wouldn't have external factors causing chaos. It's definitely a balancing act of dealing with issues at home and dealing with enemies abroad. I accept that both are important, I simply feel that our state and local leaders should be empowered to help at home while the Commander in Chief focused on external threats. ...These are just my opinions. I wish we could go back to a time where we didn't have an ideological struggle fracturing the nation, and instead we just had different groups that love our country and adhere to its founding principles, but have different ideas on how to achieve the same goals/interests we all should share as a nation.

Did you forget Aaron Burr? Your accusation of Grant as a corrupt radical surprised me. Agree that he was a fish out of water, but I think he was a good president. Did Ron Chernow completely omitted major episodes in his bio of Grant? And wow! You take the audience all through American history with so many bad options years then just punt with (“neither”) from Gerold Ford onward waving off real rational after all the insights in preceding history. All that learning snd at least pretense of being a history sage and then you jump back into having a vote for Trump …the least qualified candidate history has ever seen, ready to torch democracy if it served his vanity. He makes Nativism you dismissed early look like child’s play.

When it comes to Federalism vs Anti-Federalism I’m conflicted. I like the regionalism of the Anti-Federalists but I’m sympathetic to the elite theory of government/society of the Federalists. This is a great video. Hope for more like it. 👍 Maybe you could make a tier-list for Presidents and then Governors in U.S. History. P.S. A great book on Andrew Jackson is “In Defense of Andrew Jackson by Bradley Birzer”. When it comes to Wilson, he may said he was neutral, but America was anything but. We sent massive amounts of money to Britain and France. That’s not neutrality.
