Really love how AOC has that interview where she was like, "in any other country, Joe Biden and I would be in different parties" and she can't even get out of the same faction as the guy

Did I put her in the game????

I had players add some additional statesmen for my playthrough -- top 50 mayors, young state legislators with a bright future, etc.  I assume Jon Stewart and John Oliver aren't from your batch either. haha.

I think it’d be great to just keep them in for the main game. We can be more flexible with the modern/future eras of who is added.

Yep, I'll send the list of contributions to @vcczar for his consideration.  The hard work of research/data entry is done, including bios and wiki links, so hopefully he can tell at a glance whether he wants to keep someone in the main game without too much effort on his end.
