BTW, McKinley's middle name may not be Henry, I always thought it was Bruce, William Bruce McKinley. But I could be wrong.

Too horrible to choose. They will all be eliminated at some point anyway.

I'm having to post another delay, which will hopefully be the final delay of this contest.  My uncle just died in Louisiana and my family and I are going down there this afternoon for the service on July 2.  I will post Round 2 Bracket 6 when I get back sometime between Monday, July 4, 2005 -- 8:30 pm CDT and Friday, July 8, 2005 -- 8:30 pm CDT

Thanks so much for your patience and I will get back with you after I return.

I hate to do this, but I'm going to postpone indefinitely the remainder of this contest.  My schedule is about to get a lot more uncertain and I don't think I can continue heading it up.  If somebody wants to take over for me they can, but nobody has to, of course.

It was pretty fun but the last choices weren't too appealing.

Harry S. Truman (1945-1953)
Chester Alan Arthur (1881-1885)
(John) Calvin Coolidge (1923-1929)
(assuming lowest rank eliminated)
