Who would you like to see run for president in 2016?
Hillary Clinton tops the list for Democrats and independents, while Mitt Romney is a top choice among Republicans surveyed on ideal presidential candidates. Ben Carson, Elizabeth Warren and "a female candidate," also show up on the list of desired contenders.
Posted — UpdatedTops on the list are well-worn political names. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was named by 52.8 percent of Democrats surveyed and 21 percent of independents surveyed, while 2012 GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney garnered 18.6 percent among Republicans surveyed.
Of course, the news wasn't all good for Clinton. At least one or two Democrats said "Not Hillary Clinton" when asked the question.
Current President Barack Obama and former President Bill Clinton show up on the lists, despite being constitutionally prohibited from holding office again.
