I guess La Follette. La Follette was definitely too left-wing for me and I wonder if he had the right personality for president (I think he was great as a left-wing leader in the Senate but I prefer a more unifying president), but Coolidge is one of the last American politicians of his era that I would vote for. Davis's ideological leanings in 1924 (as opposed to his later career) are an interesting question, but I do get the sense that he was at least to the right of Wilson and James M. Cox, and I would have had a hard time voting for any Southern Democrat of that era (Wilson at least had spent his adult life in the North).
