SNL Presidents

My personal favorite was probably Will Ferrel's Bush II, but there's a lot of great ones. The debates (Bush/Gore and Bush/Clinton/Perot) are some of the best SNL moments of all time (though nothing competes with Celebrity Jeopardy).
I freely admit I don't find their versions of Obama or Trump all that funny. Politics aside, I honestly think they missed out on way more amusing ways of poking fun at the last two Presidents.

Honorable mention: Aykroyd and McDonald's Bob Dole.

I loved both of the Bush portrayals. 41 crying over losing to Clinton, "I'm a one termer. I'm a Jimmy Carter." 43 running off a list of African leaders to prove he knows the names of world leaders.
I think my favorite presidential skit was the post Desert Storm State of the Union. Bush gets multitudes of standing ovation, every time he says Operation Desert Storm. This leads to Dan Quayle (Michael J Fox) getting confused and not knowing when to stand or applaud.

Darrell Hammond outclasses all of those guys.

Dana Carvey as Perot in all the debates is laugh out loud great SNL.

Is Alec Baldwin a cast member now? Seems like he is always on there. Or is it just for Trump?

They wore kid gloves when poking fun at Obama.

Glad Hilary Clinton didn’t win or we will see Kate McKinnon everywhere

Clinton
W

1) Bush II
2) Bush I
3) Clinton (Both Hamond and Hartman)
4) Trump
5) Ford
6) Carter
7) Obama (I think this was deliberate)
Don’t know enough about the Reagan impersonator.
As for the ones who ran and didn’t become President.
1) Ross Perot
2) Bob Dole
3) Al Gore
4) Hillary Clinton (McKinnon’s version)
5) Michael Dukakis
6) Mitt Romney
The others are pretty forgettable.

Key & Peele did the best Obama.
On SNL: Hammond’s Clinton was classic. Both Amy Poehler and Kate McKinnon do really good Hillarys.
Ferrel as W is the GOAT.
Dana Carvey as Ross Perot still cracks me up.

Trump and Clinton are the most spot on.

Dana Carvey's George Bush, Darrell Hammond's Bill Clinton, and Will Ferrell's George W. Bush are my favorites.
Several others did George W. once Ferrell left the show, but they couldn't hold a candle to him.
Tina Fey's Sarah Palin was always my favorite political person imitation though.

While, as it turned out, horribly mistaken... The Race to not be the Guy that loses to George Bush skit was hilarious.

Because they didn't even try to make fun of Obama and they are way too mean spirited with Trump.
Tier 1
Hammond's Clinton
Carvey's Bush
Tier 2
Ferrell's W
Hartman's Clinton
Chase's Ford
Tier 3
Both Reagans
Prop's for McDonald's Dole and Carvey's Perot which are easily Tier 1 portrayals.
