History can seem disconnected from your everyday concerns. When was the last time you cared about settling the 49th parallel, deciding whether it was legal to print paper money, or how Hawaii was stolen? Probably never, but that's why you have good friends like Dennis Budde and Aaron Garrett to bring history into the 22nd century and relate the thoroughly insane stories of the United States and the people we foolishly entrust to lead it.
It's over! After 196 (or 197, who's counting) Presidential losers the genie curse has been lifted and Aaron and Dennis can talk about whatever they want again. Which is presidential losers, as it turns out.
Before leaving them behind forever Aaron and Dennis consider a list of Also-ran historical rankings and make their own, before re-answering the natural question of who they would have wanted for president anyway.

Ideologies: Left v Right
The boys manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory! Editing is taking a little long this week so Aaron talks about Hyrum and Verlan Lewis' book The Myth of Left and Right which asserts that Left and Right are not only unhelpful labels for political ideas, but are instead post hoc creations to justify a disparate set of beliefs! It's a hoot.
