best candidates

from PolMach Forums
Does anyone have any suggestions for which Republican and Democratic candidates they think are best to use? I'm just not sure which candidate I should commit to.

Thanks

I go as far as I can with one candidate and unlock as many of the opposite party. When I can't advance anymore, I use the highest charcter I unlocked to start the campaign again on the opposite side. I go as far as I can again, then repeat!

The best startup candidate is Chloe Sullivan for the Democrats.

The GOP is pretty weak in terms of startup people, but W. can usually advance you far enough to open up someone better.

Yes Sullivan is the "best" in terms of highest ratings. On the Republican side, GHW Bush has the best overall numbers of initial candidates. There are other factors that make a candidate "best," some of which are the "special traits" they have. GHW, for example, gets bonuses for NAFTA, Globalization, and Tax Cuts. FDR has a boat load of "special traits."
Pick a running mate that makes up for your pres. candidate's weakest traits. With Sullivan, pick Edwards (the second-highest rated player). You can run with Sullivan/Edwards (and later Sullivan LBJ) until you get to FDR or TJefferson. On the Repub. side, run GHW Bush with Laura as VP for the best numerical combo.

P.S.- Washington's ratings=wow!
