Dead Presidents
NEWS FLASH (September 2009): Disaster strikes! Chris has been named a "columnist" for McSweeneys.net, writing with a focus on the presidents. This is truly a dark day for American history.
Question 17: Why Care?
Question 16: Can the President Take a Week Off?
Question 15: Was James Buchanan gay?
Question 14: How Awful was James Buchanan?
Question 13: How Close Can I Get?
Question 12: Does Sexy Matter?
Question 11: Why Won't the President Throw Strikes?
Question 10: Can I Be President?
Question 9: Who Should I Have a Beer With?
Question 8: What's Up With Log Cabins?
Question 7: Who Would Win in a Fight?
Question 6: What Did the Founding Fathers Smell Like?
Question 5: What Should I Get the President for Christmas?
Question 4: Can We Use a Man Like Herbert Hoover Again?
Question 3: Was Thomas Jefferson a Jerk?
Question 2: Should the President Grow a Beard?
Question 1: Is it OK to Dunk on the President?
 Starting in 2005, Chris began visiting the birthplaces, homes and gravesites of the U.S. presidents (as well as a few other presidentially significant sites) as he traveled the country performing in various cities.
He claims this is his "hobby," but we are seriously concerned. We here at Chris White Sucks believe that Chris is studying the presidency, perhaps in preparation for his own run at the presidency. He turns 35 in just a few short years, and we owe it to ourselves to be ready to prevent this cataclysmic event. We admit that the odds of a Republican from Washington D.C. actually getting elected SEEM pretty bad, but hey, Dewey defeated Truman, right?
People of Chris White Sucks nation, we ask, nay, beg you to read over Chris' notes on his presidential visits. Find out what he knows. Figure out his plan. And then report back to us as quickly as possible. We've linked the reports by president name on the right side of this page.
Also, if you could do us a solid and pony up $500 million for negative ad buys in the 2016 campaign, that would be greatly appreciated.
