Alan Greenspan 1976-1985... does this Alan Greenspan's policies resemble more him in the 80s-90s ('Federal Reserve Dude' Greenspan) or him in the 60s ('Ayn Rand Groupie' Greenspan)? The latter would be fun....

Here is a list of presidents which will make your head spin:

20. Winfield S. Hancock/William English, Democrat (1881-1889)
21. Levi Morton/Garret Hobart, Republican (1889-1897)
22. Garret Hobart/Robert Lincoln, Republican (1897-1898)
23. Robert Lincoln/John Hay, Republican (1898-1905)
24. Arthur MacArthur/Alton Parker, Democrat (1905-1912)
25. Alton Parker/Oswald West, Democrat (1912-1917)
26. Charles Hughes/Charles Hughes, Irvine Lenroot, Republican (1917-1929)
27. Irvine Lenroot/Charles Curtis, Republican (1929-1933)
28. John N. Garner/James Farley, Democrat (1933-1941)
29. James Farley/Cordell Hull, Democrat (1941-1949)
30. Thomas Dewey/John Bricker, Thurston Morton, Republican (1949-1965)
31. Pat Brown/Albert Gore, Democrat (1965-1973)
32. Albert Gore/Richard Hughes, Democrat (1973-1977)
33. Howard Baker/Phil Crane, Pete duPont (1977-1985)
24. Pete duPont/Robert Ray, Republican (1985-1993)
25. Bob Graham/Al Gore (1993-2001)
26. Tommy Thompson/Jack Kemp (2001-2005)
27. Wesley Clark/Ray Mabus (2005-Present)

How would a list of such thoroughly unremarkable men affect the presidency and the nation? Without either Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy, Nixon, Reagan, or either Bush, would the nation stay the same?

Just for fun...

1961 - 1969  John F. Kennedy (DEM)
1969 - 1977  Nelson Rockefeller (REP)
1977 - 1981  Henry M. Jackson (DEM)
1981 - 1989  John Anderson (REP)
1989 - 1997  Lloyd Bentsen (DEM)
1997 - 2001  Al Gore (REP)
2001 - 2005  John McCain (DEM)
2005 -           John Edwards (REP)

Yes, you read right, Gore REP, McCain DEM and Edwards REP. A Rockefeller Presidency results in the socially liberal wing of the Republican Party (they did exist then) taking over, meaning the Reagan revolution never happened, with Anderson's Presidency being a continuation of that trend; meanwhile, Jackson's Presidency results in the conservatives running in droves to the Democrats, the result being a vastly changed political landscape by the time we get to the 90s. Both parties would probably be more moderately-minded with rather little between them, comparable to, say, a European parliamentary democracy like Germany.
