My vote? Easy. Picard, although I'd have to say it's closely followed by Sisko. (or cisco as I call him

). Picard was an intelligent, thoughtful and friendly character, but still carried a sense of authority which didn't need to be proved.. it was just there. His decisions were based on long term benefits and not selfish in anyway, overall - a decent Captain!
