Who is the Sexiest President (and Sexiest Vice President) ever?

Being President of the United States (or POTUS, if you like acronyms) comes with a lot of responsibilities, not the least of which is that your profile becomes highly raised. You’re going to be seen everywhere, from every angle. Video, photos – all living on forever.

So if you’re going to be President, you have to be sure to look your best.  And be extremely charismatic, so you can get your job done.  It’s called “politics” for a reason, folks, and being able to persuade people to do what you need them to do requires a ton of charisma.

And what’s one benefit of having a ton of charisma lying around?  People tend to think you’re sexy.  Perhaps sexier than you really deserve to be, or actually are in real life.

There’s a reason why Hollywood always casts people like Michael Douglas or Harrison Ford as President — women tend to swoon over them, so why not use those striking good looks for Presidential Good?

That’s the reasoning behind NERVE.COM’s RANKING of the SEXIEST PRESIDENTS EVER  Click over to take a look at who made their Top Ten List of Sexy Presidents, and then tell Web Watch that you can’t agree with their reasons behind each selection:

  1. Theodore Roosevelt
  2. JFK
  3. Barack Obama
  4. Thomas Jefferson
  5. Franklin Pierce
  6. Bill Clinton
  7. George W Bush
  8. FDR
  9. Ronald Reagan
  10. Abraham Lincoln

Now, Web Watch readers can debate why Teddy is ranked higher than everyone else (or where their favorites fell further down the list all they want – feel free to do so in the comments below)… but no list of SEXIEST PRESIDENTS would be complete without a companion SEXIEST VICE PRESIDENTS LISTING as well.  Of course, MSN didn’t do us the courtesy of ranking them in any particular order… and then, they only bothered to list 12 VPs rather than passing judgement on the whole gamut of seconds-in-command.

So with that, we’ll just arbitrarily select five Vice Presidents from their list; you’ll have to click that link to see which other VPs were also deemed “sexy”:

  • Levi Parsons Morton
  • Hannibal Hamlin
  • John Cabell Breckinridge
  • John C Calhoun
  • Ablen Barkley
