    Master kingmaker David H Pryor takes on General Audie Murphy as a protege. I processed it and then ran across the below and had to reverse it.

    the following offices cannot be made into a protege (although they can be a protege before attaining these offices): president, VP, Speaker, House Min Ldr,  Sen Maj Ldr, Sen Min Ldr, anyone with a military office, anyone on the US Supreme Court. 

    Always fun to learn a new rule. No kingmaker moves for now then.
