It depends on the point of reference. Primarily, a leader is a person that has a vision and works toward achieving the goals associated with that vision. A leader also is one that sets an example through their own behavior. Bush is a strong leader from the point of view of the military, as he displays respect for their role and appreciation of thier efforts on his behalf, yet many civilians see him in a less optomistic light. Clinton was a strong leader from the perspective of a significant percentage of the public because of his charisma, yet the military reviled him for his lack of ethics and morals. As is typically the case in a question like this, there is no absolute answer - only opinion.

For everyone that chose Clinton...
Bill Clinton registers for the draft on September 08, 1964, accepting all contractual conditions of registering for the draft.
Selective Service Number 326 46 228. Bill Clinton classified 2-S on November 17, 1964.
Bill Clinton reclassified 1-A on March 20, 1968.
Bill Clinton ordered to report for induction on July 28, 1969.
Bill Clinton refuses to report and is not inducted into the military.
Bill Clinton reclassified 1-D after enlisting in the United States Army Reserves on August 07, 1969, under authority of Col. E. Holmes.
Clinton signs enlistment papers and takes oath of enlistment.
Bill Clinton fails to report to his duty station at the University of Arkansas ROTC, September 1969.
Bill Clinton reclassified 1-A on October 30, 1969, as enlistment with Army Reserves is revoked by Colonel E. Holmes and Clinton is now AWOL and subject to arrest under Public Law 90-40 (2)(a) a registrant who has failed to report... remains liable for induction.
Bill Clinton's birth date lottery number is 311, drawn December 1, 1969, but anyone who has already been ordered to report for induction is INELIGIBLE!
Bill Clinton runs for Congress (1974), while a fugitive from justice under Public Law 90-40.
Bill Clinton runs for Arkansas Attorney General (1976), while a fugitive from justice.
Bill Clinton receives pardon on January 21,1977, from President Carter.
Bill Clinton is the FIRST PARDONED FEDERAL FELON ever to serve as President of the United States.
After the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, President Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.
After the 1995 bombing in Saudi Arabia, which killed five U.S. military personnel; Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.
After the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia, which killed 19 and injured 200 U.S. military personnel; Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.
After the 1998 bombing of U.S. embassies in Africa, which killed 224 and injured 5,000; Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.
After the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole, which killed 17 and injured 39 U.S. sailors; Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.
Maybe if Clinton had kept those promises, an estimated 3,000 people in New York and Washington, DC that are now dead would be alive today.
Why was it that the Clinton Administration spent more money chasing down Bill Gates over the eight years in office, than Osama bin Laden?
Still liking Clinton? At least Bush is acting against terrorism. Not the best Pres...but doing something.

When Bill Clinton left office the United States had a budget surplus of over 1 trillion dollars. We currently have a national debt of over 2 trillion dollars. There is no arguing that surplus is better than deficit, is there?

I recently saw a bumper sticker that said "Nobody died when Clinton lied". I think that pretty much sums it up! Being a philanderer is one thing that doesn't affect your ability to lead a country. Being deluded and power-happy resulting in thousands upon thousands of humans dying is a different issue entirely. I even voted for Bush. I am sorry now!

Although I dislike both of them, I don't think anyone in their right mind can call Bush a leader. He is a puppet. The man couldn't think or manipulate his way out of a paper bag.
Clinton is very charismatic and has a way of moving people. Definitely the better leader in my opinion.

They both lead in two different ways, so asking who is the best leader is like asking which game genre is better.
