Do you believe the current Presidential candidates are running because they: 1) Have something important they wish to do as President; 2) Just want to be President for the power, because they feel it is their destiny, etc.; or 3) Just happened to end up in this place at this time, or think now is their big chance because of an otherwise weak field?

A popular blogger has asked a similar question and described Reagan and FDR as #1, Bill Clinton as #2, and Pres. Bush and Truman as #3. What are your thoughts on past Presidents and the current field?
