TJ, that was pretty unsurprising until the 20th century. You seem like you'd be a WHTaft/Hughes type.

That's another possibility. I was sort of debating about whether I'd love William Jennings Bryan or hate him and couldn't make up my mind, so I decided to have myself voting for him the last time he ran but none of the others. I'm also not sure what I would have thought of Teddy Roosevelt at the time either. Maybe I would have been a Taft fan though. I do think I would have been a Democrat during the 1920s and likely would have supported Woodrow Wilson. My great grandfather passionately hated FDR, so I'm going with that as for the reason why I wouldn't have voted for him.

In general, part of my conflict about this is because my modern day self wants to pick more conservative politicians, but if I were alive 100 years ago, since I am Catholic I would have been dirt poor. I can't imagine voting for as many Republicans as I would at first instict say I would. But then again, I could also see myself as the one random voter who goes against what everyone around me in socioeconomic status is doing. Still, someone like Calvin Coolidge might be too tall an order.
