Biden: Too early to say, depends on the course his presidency takes which could still go many different ways
Trump: Horrible embarrassment who nearly (I hope just nearly) destroyed the nation
Hillary: Massively redeemed; she will be seen as a trailblazer ahead of her time and electing Trump over her in 2016 will be considered a national disgrace
Obama: Lionized as the first black president; some will criticize aspects of his record (and how they might have inadvertently led to Trump), but overall his image will likely be overwhelmingly positive
Reagan: I doubt as positive as it is now, by that time a more critical look at him and the era he brought about will likely be more mainstream, though I bet he is still popularly credited with helping end the Cold War
Bernie: Either an obscure cult figure like Debs, someone seen as a progressive ahead of his time in his own right, or blamed as a spoiler effect in 2016 like Nader is for 2000. Perhaps a complex mix of all.
