Ronald Reagan beat out Franklin Delano Roosevelt as the former president Americans would like to see in the White House during these trying economic times, a new 60 Minutes/Vanity Fair poll finds.

Thirty-six percent of those polled said they wanted the Gipper to lead America out of the economic crisis, while 29 percent picked Roosevelt. Thomas Jefferson came in third place with the support of 14 percent of those polled, followed by Roosevelt’s successor Harry Truman at 8 percent. William Henry Harrison, who was inaugurated in March 1841 and died one month later, came in last with 1 percent support.

Reagan was the pick of 68 percent of Republicans, 16 percent of Democrats and 34 percent of independents surveyed. Sixteen percent of Republicans, 43 percent of Democrats and 26 percent of independents chose Roosevelt.

The poll also found that 68 percent of Americans think Secretary of State Hillary Clinton would make the best Democratic vice presidential candidate if Joe Biden doesn’t remain on the ticket next year. When asked what words they thought of when the heard the name Marco Rubio, 25 percent said “U.S. Senator” while 14 percent said “Major League Baseball player” and 7 percent said “Cuban musician.”

The poll was conducted September 28 and October 2 among 1,012 American adults.

It does not matter what media outlet you prefer Fox, CNN ABC MSNBC. Its still wrong. Media is not trustworthy. You can't take what they say as fact. They are out to make money just like the rest of us.

60 Minutes (CBS) and Vanity Fair are media outlets too. So their poll must be wrong and untrustworthy too.

Hardly a figure indicative of the totality of voting Americans. Also with that number, you aren't going to have an even number of registered Dems, Repubs, and Independents. Age of those surveyed?

I don't have a real opinion on the results of the poll, other than I think it was conducted very poorly.

Just a tid bit of info I found interesting guys. Not proving any points here. Take it for what you want.

That's good question considering a baby that was born the day FDR died is now old enough to collect Social Security. Anybody who was of working age when FDR was president is now in their 80s. I doubt the majority of those 1,012 polled were alive to remember what life was like before 1945. And I doubt most of them know enough about American history to know FDR's economic philosophy to be able to remember it off the top of their heads when the pollster called them.

But it doesn't matter since that poll is from a media outlet and they are all wrong and untrustworthy.
