Think you can pick a good president from just a few personal traits, biased media blather and water-cooler gossip? Take the test.

Here are brief bios of three world leaders from the past; which one do you think would make the best president and commander-in-chief of the US today?

— Candidate A had little military or political experience; considered rough and unsophisticated, he was a trial lawyer frowned upon as a na ‘hick’ and criticized for telling inappropriate stories in times of crisis; some of those who served in his government viewed him as slow-witted, indecisive, weak-willed and not up to the task; he was loathed and belittled by many of the most prominent people in his country, and even by some of his own military commanders, and came close to losing a war in which his side had a strong advantage.

— Candidate B had no military experience; he drank too much, smoked heavily and repeatedly cheated on his wife; was accused of being a traitor; was ridiculed by the press that his actions could never match his soaring oratory; was hated by many respectable members of society in his time; made deals with despots; and he was charged with lying to his people on important matters of state.

— Candidate C was a decorated war hero who did not smoke nor drink, and those around him said he was very charming, humorous and personable; he loved children and animals; he was adored and even idolized by his people for his strength and leadership, and he rebuilt his nation from the ashes of a collapsed economy into a world-class industrial power.
