Random President List

Ok, this is just a random list of alternate U.S. presidents. It's not supposed to make a lot of sense, I just found it fun to make. I didn't use the butterfly effect. Basiclly, the USA is much more liberal and socialism is very popular. The Republicans die out and come back again, the Democrats become the Progressive Party (with the exception of Huey Long) and the American Labor Party becomes the Socialist Party, which then later merges with the Democrats. The American Labor Party is just a mix of Socialisits, Populists and Greenback-Labor people. Doesn't make a lot of sense, but oh well. :)
