George Washington Set Potus Precedent

This revolutionary fella followed by 
Adams family patriarch,giving rise 
twin heir (plain lee gifted "Renaissance 
Man") Jeff force'n without hemming 

and hawing, subsequently conceding 
nexus (nor horse drawn Lexus) of Colonial 
power to Madison, thence Monroe 
buttoned up as suitable candidate after 
which younger Adams elected.

Thirty four followed Jackson's club 
trumpeting (some Obama nib bully) 
bushwhacking their way predicated 
on faulty Algorithm, charming 
charismatically with hint of Clint 

like glint in eyes, blinding populace, 
sans ray gun (Reagan), Car Tour ring 
with peanut gallery in tow, affording 
(unpopularly pardoning unfashionably), 
a Jerry rigged nixed son, followed

by John's son tainted by stain of Vietnam, 
but with said Southeast Asian debacle, 
one ken heady (sporting thick styled hair) 
inherited an internecine conflict, essentially

precipitated, when Eisenhower hardened 
political stance against any allies of the 
Soviet Union, (sans The Viet Cong), and 
pledged his firm support to Diem 
and South Vietnam.

Now with preceding administration, one 
harried true man unleashed advent of atomic 
spectra upon Hiroshima, and Nagasaki, this 
purported preemptive measure scary ruse

felt to thwart exaggerated Japanese government 
threat (military intelligence) scheming to 
wreak untold havoc upon American troops 
within the Pacific theater of World War II.

The former horrific decision controversial, 
then and to this day Hoover expert historian, 
diverge, asper corroborating the necessity 
to usher in the Cold War, yet majority foreign 

policy wonks might grudgingly attest that 
said thirty first commander in chief did maintain 
a Cool Edge throughout onset when doomsday 
clock began countdown to Armageddon,
 
an unimaginably blaring, deafening, earsplitting...
cacophony distant rumbles heard, nonetheless, 
no Hard dinning ghoulish nightmare (potentially 
obliterating all life on planet Earth) haunted 

Wilson, nor Taft, only gunboat diplomacy 
mere child's play exhorted, less catastrophic 
comparison, when Teddy Roosevelt wielded 
"big stick schtick" namesake corollary to the 
Monroe Doctrine in 1904...ad nauseum.
