I know you said you wouldn't drop him, but just for the record, Truman never actually joined the KKK (he asked for the $10 fee back soon after paying it and was never initiated).  Also, the person who made this claim was an enemy of Truman's, so make of that what you will.

Some people you forgot: possibly Edward Douglas White, David Duke (seems like an obvious one Tongue ), and Thomas Watson

I was joking about Truman.
I'm ready to drop him, but shouldn't Watson be let aside too, as he wasn't formally a member (or was he ?) ?

Duke was only a LA Representative, not a US one.
Douglass White was Chief Justice, not Congressman or Gov.
That's why I didn't include these 2.

But if there is a general demand, I can enlarge the list.

I think I remember reading somewhere that Watson was a formal member (I could be wrong, but I think he was)

Graves b/c Thomas Watson is the worst guy on the list (it would be nice to see the worst person win a survivor, especially one like this that would seem to lend itself to that Wink

And to answer Fab's question, I guess you could make an argument for Gordon or Bilbo being the worst, but I would argue that Watson's influence during the Leo Frank incident made Frank's lynching inevitable and that Watson was the only one on the list whom one could argue directly participated in murder (there have been unverified claims that he was actually part of the lynch mob).  However, Gordon was instrumental in the klan's formation and Bilbo was more "entertaining."  Watson (whether he was at the lynch mob or not) was knowingly instrumental in causing a murder, and I'd argue that makes him the worst (but, again, a case can easily be made for Gordon or Bilbo).
