I think Rand will because he is accepting bitcoin for donations. Don't really follow US politics though.

Which Candidate do you think would benefit support Bitcoin the most? I'm not asking who you support. I"m asking which candidate would benefit support Bitcoin and its adoption the most?
If you would like please state why a candidate would be beneficial or harmful to bitcoin.

I really do think the only candidate out there who would even consider supporting Bitcoin as a contender for the new national(/global) currency of the US would be Rand Paul. Rand has a big stance for privacy and a stance against the big banks. He's riding on the coat tails of his father (obviously), but he supports all of the same notions as he did when he was running for president.
Hillary would be the absolute WORST president for bitcoin, and would probably try to do something in the future to get Bitcoin criminalized in some way. She is supported financially by big banks, it's no secret. So she is essentially a puppet being put on the podium by these guys, so they can essentially pull the strings in the white house and start doing something to wipe out all the people in the US who support or use bitcoin, and put them in prison (for profit, of course).

Rand already accepts donations via Bitcoin to his campaign so he seems like an obvious choice here. I'm sure Gary Johnson will accept Bitcoin as well, though.
It's sad though, really, that Rand or Ron never had a chance to begin with. They are trying to be put on the Republican ticket, when the party affiliation is a completely different way of thinking with their philosophical beliefs. I think they would honestly have a better chance to run on their own "libertarian" ticket, than to try and succumb to straight and narrow line that they have to fall on to gain the "approval" of hard core republicans.
It's pretty surprising to me how much support Bernie has gotten, because in a way, he is a totally different way of thinking than the typical "liberal" mindset. Democratic socialism is more of a grass root following that, I guess, has gained more traction over the years.

No need for their support, when bitcoin will have many users and will be accepted everywhere, they will believe on it.
For this question I only could say that the rich maniac guy will ban it and jail its supporters.

I support Bernie Sanders because hes so liberal I think he would be more tolerant of bitcoin even if he doesn't openly support it.
I think Thump would be the most likely to ban Bitcoin because of its association with drug dealers and terrorists.
Edit: yeah Hillary is one shifty eyed warmongering bag of sound bites who was made in a Lab using distilled voter analytical data... shes a robot and yes a puppet of the big banks.

I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to disagree on you there. I can understand that he is not really controlled by any big bankers, and to me seems to be alright in a sense of becoming a good president... but the thing is, is that "being so liberal" doesn't mean that he will accept every single thing. Bernie is a democratic socialist, and the fact of the matter is is that he wants the governments to have so much power, that it would as a government not allow bitcoin to be accepted anywhere, nor would he ban it (I don't think at least).
Even if he were to want to use Bitcoin, there would have to be some notion that goes through Congress to discontinue the Central Banks... and as of right now, I'm pretty positive Republicans hold the majority.
It would be a lot easier to pass a bill or new law with Rand Paul, because he's pro-privacy and pro-decentralization and, just because of how politics work, would be easier to pass a bill/law just because he's on the Republican ticket.

You don't have him listed and I doubt he'll ever get more than one percent of the vote, but libertarian candidate Gary Johnson would be the biggest supporter of bitcoin in my opinion. If you want to make sure you'll have no issues with using bitcoin in America I could almost guarantee he will probably be your guy.
