She's actually more progressive than Reagan in my honest opinion, and quite honestly, the only other alternative that I could think of in 1984 was Mondale, and in 1988 was George H.W Bush. I wasn't impressed with Mondale's campaigning skills, and H.W Bush doesn't appeal to me for the same reasons that I didn't like his son.

If you really think Hugo Chavez was better than Jean Chretien, Paul Martin, Gerhard Schröder, Lula de Silva, or Manmohan Singh, I don’t know what to say.

Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, and all the others I don’t really understand, but if you want to be anti-globalization or anti-The Big Five, there are still much better leaders than Chávez to turn to.
I'm aware of that, and with hindsight would vote for someone else, likely Lula de Silva

Other De Gaulle (who I really only backed because he's a World War II hero), I'm not a fan of French politicians, otherwise I would have supported Sarkozy, Hollande and Macron.

I'm going to do this Virginia governor style and assume all my candidates won and did not seek re-eleciton. Obviously my knowledge of world affairs goes down the farther back in time you go, so I'm sure there are people I would prefer more if I had actually been alive throughout most of the 20th century.
