Good job, Blue Max. When are you going to start including fictional Presidents, btw?

It's not my style.
The problem with fictional Presidents is that it truly releases the author from any historical narrative. If Gil Granholm is elected president in 1952, what the heck does that even mean? He doesn't exist, he's not based on anyone, and he is not bound to anything.
To begin to be fair, I'd have to deeply flesh out who this person is before he even begins to make sense. And it doesn't much appeal to me--a lot of the fun here is finding characters that lived at a certain time, and follow what would be a logical direction for the timeline.
Instead, feel free to look up the names I present and see who these people historically are.
You could always head over to the active Presidents thread here...:

Anyone else what to go? I would rather not have this game degenerate into a back and forth between myself and Blue Max. As much as I enjoy working with him, there should be a little more diversity in the players list.
I honestly just thought that the list only went from 1960 onward. Oops. I'll move over there.
