"e;Ghosts of Presidents Past - A Reckoning"e; serves as a metaphor for the chaos in American politics from 2015 -2020. The work combines historical fiction with political parody and humor. Normally we don't see ghosts and phantoms except on Halloween when trick-or-treaters knock on front doors. If Halloween in government existed, how might twenty-three former US presidents, beginning with George Washington, respond to the siren call to visit a president who ignores the Constitution and suppresses and manipulates information for political gain?What if that president disrespected his obligations to the Nation's revered institutions and the American public? What if he lacked moral fiber and used the office for personal gain? What if he had attained the highest office in the land through unscrupulous means? What if his ego drove him to manipulate the truth to enhance his image? What if he bullied his opponents and called them sophomoric names? What if he alienated friends and stalwart allies?What if that president disrespected his obligations to the Nation's revered institutions and the American public?
