Who is a natural in the role of the Presidency?
One guy was talking about that. He threw out 4 examples of Presidents who were naturals in the role of the Presidency. 3 of them were Democrats. FDR, JFK and Clinton, and 1 Republican, Reagan. Who do you think is a natural as President?

1. John F. Kennedy
He knew how to communicate with the people and give them higher expectations for themselves.

2. I'm thinking Jefferson
was probably pretty good; in my lifetime, LBJ was great until Vietnam undid him. It's a shame Vietnam will overshadow the Great Society in his legacy.

4. Teddy Kennedy!
It could almost be argued that he had a god given right the presidency after the death of his brothers
