Wish would have done
Top answer
Vladv is it the same as "I wish the presidents had read more" No, it means that the writer thinks that there are several specific books which presidents would benefit from reading, but past presidents (and the current one) probably didn't read. Grammatically speaking, the statement doesn't refer to future presidents, as "would have read" is a past-tense construction, but we may assume that the writer thinks that many of these books would benefit future presidents too.
