Ned or Stannis most likely. Tywin would be good as well, dude knows how to get shit done. Ned would continue to give out 'BAD DEALS', cause he knows as much about politics as a pigeon knows about jerking off. Stannis would be a more menacing version of Trump, enforcing a theocratic ruling body as well. Also he doesn't want to rule, he wants it because 'it's his right'. Which is never the path to democracy. Of the three, Tywin is the only right answer. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Stannis doesn't give a shit about religion and he doesn't want to rule but thinks it's his duty. Fuck the show for getting him wrong.

I was sort of debating which one, but I had missed Tywin. Tywin is unarguably the right choice.
Ned Stark is too rigid in his morals, unable to compromise to do what needs to be done. Robert Baratheon: lol Joffrey Baratheon: lol Stannis Baratheon is even more rigid than Ned Stark though his morals bend a lot farther. He would be awful at diplomacy. Keep in mind that he didn't even allow his maester to call Robert his "beloved" brother in a letter. Cersei Lannister may be the worst choice on this list. Robert and Joffrey are bad but they were not generally interested in ruling, so their advisors were able to competently govern in their stead. Cersei will prance from fuck-up to fuck-up, patting herself on the back for what a good job she's doing the entire time. Robb Stark is a good person, but too ruled by his emotions. Jon Snow isn't able to read the public. Mance Rayder might be the closest equivalent to Donald Trump. He'd be able to rally the public, but he doesn't have the experience necessary to do the job. Daenarys is somehow too self-centered and too charitable. She also has the negative aspects of both Jon Snow and Mance Rayder: policies that the public hate and complete inexperience. Tywin is the perfect blend. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Also he doesn't want to rule, he wants it because 'it's his right'. That's partially what I said, the people didn't give him that duty.

It is enforced in the show. Stannis's actions, Not really. Haven't seen all of the seasons yet, so maybe the show changes him later on. But in the books (and in the parts of the show I've seen), Stannis isn't really religious. He uses Melisandre and her god because it gets results. OEIO999 posted...

Him not wanting to rule, makes him sound like a kid who doesn't want the toy, but doesn't want others to have it, since his parents bought it for him. That's part of his rigid belief system. He is very, very big on duty. He doesn't want to rule, but it is his duty. He didn't want to marry his wife, but it is his duty. He didn't want to be Lord of Dragonstone, but it is his duty. Also, making this post made me realize that the Tully words kind of sum up Stannis, the Starks, and the Lannisters. Lannisters are family, Stannis are duty, and the Starks are honor <_< --- ...

Then I fear you are not going to like how they handle Stannis in the show. You're evaluating on what he says, but his actions,
We are talking about who would make the best POTUS. Stannis's rigid belief system is EXACTLY WHY he would be a horrible person for our current, republic rulling system. In their world? I guess, I am a man of the republic so I can't evaluate their system without biase. But in our world, he'd be a theocratic, dictator, who believes he is entitled to power. For eg. ...

[snip] I'm assuming we're equating these characters to modern American versions.The closest equivalent to Stannis in our world would likely be an atheist politician who attends church because it plays well with the masses who constantly fires people because they don't match his belief system.

Eddard seems like the middle-of-the-road candidate that would be the successful compromise. He's traditional in the sense that he understand that tradition can help people band together, but he is perfectly accepting of other's beliefs and traditions. He pushes law and order, but is willing to compromise on unimportant issues. I know he was made to be the most generic, likable character in GoT, so it makes sense that he would win a charisma contest.

Wasn't thinking about how many advisors he'd have and the other wings of government. It wouldn't be JUST him making decisions and he'd listen to advice.

I didn't think the Starks were rich, nor Stannis. In the terms of medieval power and socio-economic status, they both are quite rich given the time periods.

I'd lean towards Ned under the same logic as post 38. Assuming he weren't in the position of being backstabbed from fifteen different directions, he'd be a reasonably minded executive.
Tywin and book Stannis are fairly close in the running for the number 2 slot by my reckoning. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! ... Copied to Clipboard!
