The Bushes are obviously endorsing Jeb. Same for Bill Clinton and Hillary. Jimmy Carter hasn't endorsed anyone yet but I think it would be Hillary.

Reagan: Bush
Ford: Kasich
Nixon: Kasich? Christie?
Johnson: Clinton
Kennedy: Clinton
Eisenhower: Kasich
Truman: Clinton
FDR: Sanders?

Uh, right wing blogs told me that Bill despises Hillary. Therefore I think he'd #feelthebern

All dems: Clinton (don't kid yourself otherwise)

Bush II: Bush
Bush I: Bush
Reagan: Kasich or Bush
Ford: Kasich (not sure about this one, really)
Nixon: Christie
Eisenhower: Clinton (no room for Eisenhower in the modern GOP)

Going back further, I don't feel like I know them well enough.

Probably - I'm talking about modern day dems. From FDR onwards.

Hoover: Kasich (low energy midwestern moderate)
FDR: Sanders (evil pinko that loves gummymint intervention in the economy)
Truman: Clinton (bloodthirsty)
Eisenhower: Who knows
Kennedy: Chafee (New England solidarity)
Johnson: Sanders (see FDR)
Nixon: Christie (corrupt loudmouthed moderate)
Ford: Kasich (see Hoover)
Carter: Paul (don't they both hate Israel or something?)
Reagan: Clinton (because muh too left-wing for today's GOP)
Bush Sr.: Bush Jr (because he's less of a joke than Jeb!, and f**k the 22nd)
Clinton: Cruz (deregulated the banks, passed draconian welfare reform, DOMA, DADT)
Bush Jr.: Jeb! (just as a thanks for 2000 and he doesn't have a chance anyway)
Obama: F**k this sh**t, I'm going to repeal the 22nd!

You think there's room for Nixon, but not Eisenhower?

What an Atlas thread. Skipping obvious ones:

Every Democrat after and including FDR: Clinton (maybe a 2% chance that Carter backs Sanders)

Reagan: Rubio or Cruz, probably leaning Rubio

Ford: Pataki, then one of Kasich/Bush/Christie. Might support Bloomberg if it's Cruz or Trump.

Eisenhower + Nixon: Christie, but like Trump the most on the issues

Every pre-FDR president: Cruz or Trump (past is a different country)

First off I am going to discount the family member credentials ie it would who they would endorse if their family member was in the race

Dubya - Cruz
Clinton - O'Malley
Bush - Rubio
Reagan - Paul
Ford - Kaisch
Nixon - Kaisch
Eisenhower - Kaisch
Hoover - Christie
Harding - Paul
Coolidge - Paul

All post FDR democrats would be Clinton
