It's easy to find out what Ron Paul thinks about the TSA, what Newt Gingrich's stance on Social Security is, or what Rick Santorum believes when it comes to gay marriage.

It also means we've got an excuse to talk about presidents, and since we've already gone over some of the best ones videogames have given us, it's high time we took a long, loving look at some of the absolute most craven, opportunistic bastards ever to take up the fictitious reins of office...
