Truman voting for Bush? They are worlds apart on economics. Truman was a genuine champion of the working class regular guy. Truman wouldn't have been a big fan of Kerry of course either (he would've been for Edwards in the primary) but I can't in a million years see him voting for Bush.
I also don't see Eisenhower with his opposition to the military industrial complex going for Bush. Like Truman he wouldn't have really cared for either of the candidates, and it's certainly at least possible he might've held his nose and voted for Bush (or pulled a Chafee and wrote in someone like Bush 41).
I agree on Nixon going for Bush; despite great disagreements on many domestic policies, the two were in definite agreement on the issue of the powers of the executive branch.
