Picard had more sense, stability, and reason, Janeway had determination and luck, Sisko had faith and an inner strength, Archer's strength was curiosity, and the urge to explore. Kirk had determination, urge to explore at times, luck, and inner strength. If nothing else, in most ways, hes like a combo of all of the captains. The best of them all, with Spock at his side he also had Picard's strengths.

My point? Kirk may not have been my favorite personally, but in a reality where I would have to choose one of them to captain a ship, Id go with Kirk any day as my first pick.
