>>39327495Beat Roark. Team is coming together nicely.
>>39331012>>39328176If you're wondering why I chose who I chose:
-Adenauer was the hardass West German Chancellor in the 1950s who kept East Germany down long enough until his successors could afford to pursue Östpolitik
-Gorbachev is Gorbachev. Have you seen his Pizza Hut commercial? It's kinda funny, and it demonstrates that he's one of the few Soviets who actually had chill. This book he co-authored is an interesting look into the pursuit of liberalization behind the Iron Curtain:

-Nimitz might not be an obvious pick until you read that he helped push through the USS Nautilus and kickstarted the age of nuclear submarines. All before the mid-60s!
-Walter Cronkite was kinda the first dude NOT from politics who popped into my head. I wanted to do Bush 41's speechwriter initially but I couldn't remember his name.
