Out of the two main contenders, Clinton. A world where Clinton wins in 2008 and Obama runs in 2016 after two full terms in the Senate or one full term in the Senate and a term as Governor would be a much better world.

Clinton, if she were to have the same super majorities that Obama had in 09 and 10, would've likely had a lot more to show for them as she wouldn't have been naive in dealing with her opposition the way Obama was, Granted, her foreign policy would've been too hawkish for my taste, but on balance a Clinton Presidency from 2009-17 would be better than OTL.

The runner up, abet with the benefit of hindsight, would be Biden.
