I don't think I'd want him to be president now, but in his day, Ben Franklin would have made a great president. He did more for America (and technology) than any of those actual early presidents. Then again, maybe he would have encountered a lot more red tape than he was used to in his civilian life, and wouldn't have been able to accomplish as much. He definitely does not nearly get his due.
Common sense is what I think we'd want(and never seem to get), and this is who I was thinking of.
I, personally, took the question as being someone who hadn't already been president. After all, we have term limits on the presidency for a reason.
Seriously though I think Churchill would be right up there with the top picks.
