Most Qualified Candidate Ever?

Let's be clear: Not one of the many candidates running this year would be the most qualified person ever to seek the presidency.

This fellow could be a strong contender for that title. 

So could this one.

Amazing that highly qualified people don't always make the best presidents. JQA just wasn't a great president. On the other hand Shelby Foote said Lincoln was extremely unqualified for the job when he started, and yet was one of the greatest.

Don't forget Buchanan.

Daniel,

The credentials and experience doesn't always mean success. On the surface, Lincoln was not well qualified but in terms of intellectual depth. he was extraordinary.

Kurt,

How could I have forgotten!!
