It's in the "stars" (predicting by astrology and other means)

A portion of my latest historic "who scored what" list. More at the website:

Elections from 1932 to 2012:
1932: Franklin D Roosevelt 21-5 U, Herbert Hoover 11-12*
1936: Franklin D Roosevelt 21-5 U*, Alf Landon 10-17
1940: Franklin D Roosevelt 21-5 U*, Wendell Wilkie 8-9
1944: Franklin D Roosevelt 21-5 U, Thomas Dewey 8-5 SN
1948: Harry Truman 15-0, Thomas Dewey 8-5 SN
1952: Dwight Eisenhower 17-8, Adlai Stevenson 5-20
1856: Dwight Eisenhower 17-8, Adlai Stevenson 5-20*
1960: John F Kennedy 13-6, Richard Nixon 18-7
1964: Lyndon Johnson 8-6 J*, Barry Goldwater 20-10** (he had Mars in Scorpio rising, with inharmonious aspects: the perfect symbol of his stubborn "extremism")
1968: Richard Nixon 18-7*, Hubert Humphrey 9-5**, George Wallace 2-7 J (+ Mars rising)
1972: Richard Nixon 18-7*, George McGovern 9-10
1976: Jimmy Carter 12-4, Gerald Ford 12-8
1980: Ronald Reagan 21-6, Jimmy Carter 12-4*, John Anderson 14-8 J*
1984: Ronald Reagan 21-6, Walter Mondale 12-10 J/U*
1988: George H W Bush 14-6, Michael Dukakis 2-12*
1992: Bill Clinton 21-2 J, George H W Bush 14-6, Ross Perot 7-12 (his Jupiter rising is evident, but it was 10 degrees above his ascendant, so I didn't count it officially)
1996: Bill Clinton 21-2 J, Bob Dole 12-19
2000: George W Bush 17-2*, Al Gore 10-8 (Mars rising)
2004: George W Bush 17-2*, John Kerry 8-13 (his score was much weaker in the revised system)
2008: Barack Obama 19-2, John McCain 15-13
2012: Barack Obama 19-2, Mitt Romney 4-9 U, SN
2016: Donald Trump 9-4 (Mars rising), Hillary Rodham Clinton 9-11 J

J = Jupiter rising in birth chart (big advantage). U = Uranus rising in birth chart (small advantage). SN = Saturn at the Nadir in birth chart (big disadvantage).
* Saturn Return ** Saturn Return before opponent. Big disadvantage. If it occurs in election year or first 3 years after election, loss all but certain. In 4th year (potential re-election year), loss possible; big disaster and/or destroyed presidency all but certain. Since 1932: FDR, Johnson, Nixon and Bush all had a Saturn Return in the 4th (re-election) year.

Highest Republican actual and potential candidate scores with no Saturn return due: Donald Trump 9-4, Ivanka Trump 16-0, Carly Fiorina 16-7, George Pataki 15-3.

Other potential Democratic candidates with good scores, with no Saturn Return after 2020: Janet Napolitano 11-5, Terry McAuliffe 11-2. Tammy Baldwin (13-6) will have a Saturn Return for the election of 2020, and Gavin Newsom (8-2) for 2024. Late-night TV political comic Seth Meyers has indicated no interest in running, but if he did, he'd have a 20-4 score going for him. Another media personality with a good score is documentary producer Michael Moore, 16-8, and Oprah Winfrey has 10-5. Stephen Colbert has a high positive number and a score of 20-11. Maybe another celebrity can save us!
