Default US Presidents - A comprehesive collection?

I have been looking into the typing of US Presidents and haven't found any good websites that has a comprehensive collection of all these men and the reasons that they are (whichever) type.

And the ones I saw that anything close to what I was looking for, the profiles just didn't match.

Link anyone?

Keirsey Temperament Website

They don't type the presidents based on Introvert/Extravert though.

They got Clinton and Bush Jr. now

According to them, Clinton is an SFP (probably ESFP) and W is an STP (probably ESTP).

I love how according to that Keirsey website the US has never had an idealist president.

This site has Jefferson as INTP, rather than INTJ or more (rarely INFJ) as he is more often typed.

It also has Jung as INFJ!

I just watched a thing on Grant. Keirsey has him as an ENTJ. Maybe so based on his military, but NOT his presidency. He was an SP president.

I have the Presidential Temperament book- apparently Grant is described as an ENTJ who was willing to let Congress do all the work- due to an NT principle that the executive branch shouldn't hold too much power.

ENTJ's can be crazy alcoholics.

For what it's worth, I believe Keirsey's system types McCain as ESTP and Obama as INTJ.

I'll vote for Obama!
