Bush or Clinton
Of the two US Presidents, which one do you like more based ONLY on Charisma - NOT their political ambitions or decisions?
Bush, without a doubt. I always found Clinton to be oily and reptilian. He was extremely two-faced as well. He was also a serial sex offender, and an accused rapist. There is absolutely no doubt that the guy is an adulterer.
With Bush, you always know that he believes what he is saying, and that he is being straight. You may disagree with him, but he isn't playing sneaky games. It is also certain that he is a real family man.

I never thought I would say this to you Nighthawk on the topic of politics but I agree with you 100% even though I don't know exactly what "oily and reptilian" really mean
Bush has much more charisma than Clinton in my opinion and when he speaks, you can see on his face and expression that what he says is something he deeply believe to be true, I cannot say the same for Clinton.

Clinton never met a poll he didn't like. He was definitely smooth (oily) and was very good at telling you what you wanted to hear, but I never got the opinion that he stood for anything. Bush stands tall for almost anything. He doesn't waver on many issues and will make a strong and unpopular decision if he believes it is in our best interest. That is not only charisma, but that is a leader leading and I disagree with almost everything he has done fiscally in the last 5 years!

I have to disagree with you guys on this one. I don't believe Bush has much charisma at all. Clinton was a smooth talker and could hold a crowd. I don't find that Bush has this quality. However, I agree on the part that Clinton was a sleazier man, and Bush, whether you agree with him or not, is a straight talker. But this question is purely about charisma. If both gentleman had a dinner party, I believe Clinton would command a bigger crowd. But it is an interesting topic.

I also disagree that Bush has more Charisma. Clinton has always been a crowd pleaser and is a very eloquent speaker. I believe that Bush is intelligent, but he has a reputation of being stupid because he doesn't know how to present himself. Nighthawk said:

I like Bush's straightforwardness if that is the right word, but I feel Clinton has there better public eye despite his after hour pleasures.
