Looking "Presidential"

[Smeagol]

No just looks but carrying an air of leadership that's not always easy to define. Confidence, maturity, focused, intelligence, well-spoken. Romney had it. McCain had it. In my humble opinion "looking presidential" is what's lacking in the GOP field. To be fair, there are "Presidential looking" GOP candidates, but they're all doing poorly in the polls, IMHO. The one's who are leading look young and inexperienced, bashful or nutty. As important as the job is, who eventually becomes President can often come down to a beauty/popularity contest based on really superficial stuff. I wonder can the GOP actually win the White House with a candidate that doesn't com across as a strong competent leader, even if he/she wins the GOP nomination?

Policy preferences aside, in your opinion which GOP candidate for President "looks the most Presidential?"

Sorry, I couldn't list every candidate. The site's software seems to limit polling to no more than 10 options. In care there might be more than one candidate who seems to carry themselves with a "Presidential" air, I set it up where we can vote for multiple candidates.

I think Jeb and Rubio look presidential. Lincoln was probably the most uncouth looking president, but I think we respected character much more back then.

I like Rubio and could see myself voting for him, but to me he come across as a really smart kid. Jeb wins on Presidential looking, IMHO.

I could vote for Rubio too. Jeb looks much more presidential than his brother,which isn't saying a whole lot, but I think Rubio has a much better chance.
