1900- No, Bryan had his one real shot in 1896 and blew it.
1904- Hell No.
1908- Hell No.
1912- Teddy R definitely would have voted for him regardless.
1916- Yes. Hughes could have been a decent President, at least he could accomplished things and not been bed ridden.

1920- I like Cox as a guy but he wasn't the best alternative so no.
1924- Neither one were good, Coolidge was the only legit choice.
1928- Blah on Smith so IDK there.
1932- Hoover had his shot and blew it so nope.
1936- Landon? Never had a chance so no.
1940- Love me some Willkie so def yes.
1944/48- Always thought Dewey was overrated. Too much on youth and image not enough on actual  power and leadership potential.

1952/56- Stevenson was too bland and boring so no.
1960- In a honest straight up world Nixon would have won that year. He had experience and youth, Kennedy just had a better louder campaign and it his looks/style hooked people that year. So Yes on Nixon.
1964- Nope.
1968- HHH was a good man but way to liberal for my tastes, Wallace was a horse's behind.
1972- 2X as worse for McGovern. Schmitz was a loony tune.
1976- Ford should have won that election. Better campaign and actually talked about the issues, just ran out of time and too many gaffes.
1980- Carter Decent man but crappy President, Anderson wasn't nothing but an attention monger. So maybe Ed Clark.
1984- Mondale was a joke. No quality third party canidates that year so Reagan or Bust
1988- Dukakis was bland and wasn't much a man's man. He wasn't connectable and didn't seem authentic. Maybe Paul as a protest vote but again no quality third party.
1992- Tough to choose between who would have been my first choice between Clinton and Perot, wouldn't vote for Bush at any point that year.
1996-Perot yes, Dole no.
2000- Nader yes as a why not vote, no for Gore.
2004- Same as 2000.
2008- Def McCain. Wonder how he could have done as President.
2012- Romney?  Prob would have voted for a third party over him. Either Johnson or Roseanne as a write in.
