I'm betting most of you guys say Theodore Roosevelt, but I'll take Jackson He was a total psycho, fearless, and a dirty fighter to boot, though I don't agree with him philosophically.
ETA:He'd get me into trouble, knowing him he'd probably kill everybody in the bar, then scalp them and wear the aforementioned scalps Sad

He was allegedly pretty physically imposing at 6Ft4ish 220 lbs and strong as well.

While Teddy or Jackson would both be awesome, I have to go with my boy John Adams. Not only did he carry a big stick like both Jackson and Roosevelt, he was the best damn lawyer in the country. Je (rightfully) got the British soldiers who perpetrated the Boston 'masacre' off the hook, in spite of the everyone else calling for their heads.

What I'm saying is, I'll handle the fight and if/when I get my ass handed to me, Adams and I will sue the bastards into next year. Nod

For straight up fighting though, I'd have to go with Teddy Roosevelt. I mean duh.

Jefferson is the only President I know of who ever summarily executed a traitor on the White House lawn. By gut shooting him and letting him bleed to death for hours. No shit.

FDR. Dude had polio but would stand up without his crutches for hours at a time, so the dude is just tough.


So here's to you Mrs. Robinson. People love you more- oh, nevermind.

I did not know that about FDR. Could the Roosevelts get any more badass, if they tried?

One would think that with the cracked fandom on this board more people would have chosen the Illinois giant, but yeah you can't go wrong with Teddy. Andrew Jackson is also a good choice. It becomes readily apparent that we had a good selection of presidents that could inflict some serious pain, which is why I think the presidential wreslting federation is a great idea.

Why in the hell would you choose the cripple, and lets face it nobody is voting for the doddering actor unless they're being obstinate or Cattivo, who is expected to vote with his avatar.

I said other. I'd choose JFK. He's Irish so you know he can drink and fight and if all else fails, you've got the Irish mob on your side.

Lincoln had a crazy bitch wife, so you have to factor in a good deal of simmering rage. He also may have been gay, but I'm not sure if that is a plus or a minus in this hypothetical fight....

.... After considering all the facts, I'm sure it would be a plus. Nobody wants to fight a large, lanky, angry, former lumberjack homo lawyer. Nobody.

Win or lose, you're going to get sodomized, and Honest Abe is going to enjoy it.

One day a man pulled a pistol on President Andrew Jackson, and pulled the trigger.
It didn't fire.
He then quickly retrieved the second pistol he carried for just this reason, pointed it at President Jackson, and pulled the trigger.
It didn't fire either.
The odds of two misfires are astronomical. One might say that, perhaps, God was looking out for Andrew Jackson that day.
But instead of puzzling over this, Jackson lifted his cane to the sky and BEAT THE MOTHER FUCKER TO WITHIN AN INCH OF HIS LIFE.
The pistols were retrieved, inspected, and found to be in perfectly functional order. It's said that they didn't fire because the very guns were scared of him, and knew of the wrath their possessor soon discovered.

Teddy Roosevelt resigned his position as Secretary of the Navy so he could fight in the Spanish American War. The same TR took a bullet in the chest, and then went to a political rally and gave his speech before seeking medical treatment The same TR who as police commissioner of New York would ride his BICYCLE into the toughest parts of town at midnight to see what the cops and locals were up to.

George Washington was a fucking beast, I gotta go with the man who fucking invented America. Teddy would be a good choice but Georgy boy seems more well rounded in qualities. Nobody would mess with Teddy because you knew the guy was crazy, but nobody would mess with George because he was a badass who'd fuck your world up.

Yeah, pays to be long-winded sometimes.

Andrew Jackson was a tough guy, but I doubt I would get along with him in terms of being friends and/or political thinking. I think I would have more in common with Teddy, and that man could put up a fight! I pick Teddy, although George Washington is awesome too.

It would be funny to see Obama get in a fight because he would probably get his ass kicked, but my ass would most likely get beat too if I don't quickly become friends with the guys who hurt him. So, the bad would outweigh the good in my case.

Teddy it is!

Teddy Roosevelt, all the way. Roosevelt is the Goddamn Batman. (There's a documentary about it and everything!)

Having Jackson along is a sure way to have it turn from a bar fight into a murder scene, that and He'd probably be the one to start shit and you'll be the one to take care of his mess before you even get to enjoy one beer, sure he'll help you out but god help you if someone looks at him the wrong way, well actually, god help you if anyone just looks at him.
