Presidential Fun Facts

The Ministry of Information

The US Presidents: A group of manipulative and delusional humans who
lead the United States of America during the dark period before the
Ministry was created. But how many citizens truly know anything
pertinent about these men?

The answer: None. It has been reported that
when asked about which historical US president was most interesting to
them during a nonvoluntary information extraction session, seven out of
every ten Americans responded by emptying their bowels, lolling back
their battered heads, and crying out in agony. So in an effort to
educate our
citizens about some of the leaders of what was once the United States
of
America, the MoI has
compiled this official list of presidential facts for your consumption.
