[edit] Presidential Lists
- Based on Wikipedia's lists, but with the 5 known WW presidents
[edit] Order
Richard Nixon was 37 (likely same in TWWU), so the order is in my opinion:

- 42. Owen Lassiter (probably 1991 to 1999)
- 43. Josiah Bartlet (1999 to 2007)
- VP: John Hoynes (1999 to 2003), Vacant, Robert Russell (2003 to 2007)
- unnumbered, acting. Glen Allen Walken (2003)
