Cath, I just remembered that you failed to mention the most important part of Adams's foreign policy in your write-up: his approval of an expedition to the North Pole to search for mole-men living inside the earth. Would a President Van Buren approve such a heroic venture? I think not.

Yo dawg, just a question about precedent vis-a-vis real life and how this dynamic relates to Future President Clay. Everyone here knows that this forum has an almost unhealthy obsession with Henry Clay, and no matter who wins this time he'll probably be President in 1832. Now, seeing as we've got ourselves precedent for retiring after three or two terms, and this forum's previously mentioned propensity for Clay presidencies, I'm gonna go ahead and assume that we're all gonna get together and have him win in '32, '36, and '40, and this is where the conundrum starts to kick in. See, as you are no doubt aware, Clay was the Whig Party nominee in '44, so my question is: is real life more important than term precedents or vice-versa, and if the former, will you have Clay run for a hypothetical fourth term in '44?

Mole men are not a partisan issue. It is in the hearts and minds of every American to set their sights on one day uncovering a group of mole men, and even the Republican thrift would not prevent such an exercise of national destiny.

I do enjoy the pre-1920 elections as the voting is far more fluid and less D/R partisan.

Anyway, Adams/Clay.

I agree - it's not often you see you and me vs. TNF.
