I would rephrase that as "Pick the one who will, by your best guess, cause the least damage". Leviathan is, and has always been, a matter of the least possible

I would rephrase that as "Pick the one who will, by your best guess, cause the least damage". Leviathan is, and has always been, a matter of the least possible evil. Case in point, I'm pretty sure Mitt Romney would have waltzed into a cave in Afghanistan and set off an atomic bomb. He was that obnoxious. At least Obama seems to be half decent at getting less* impressionable young minds soul-searching for their vocation to find "Kill Americans" the obvious choice. So Obama it was, drones and all. * Yes, their were no Atomic Bombs in Afghanistan, but let's not let the facts get in the way of a good story.
