Is the office of POTUS considered the 'keystone'?
Whoever is president controls everything, including whatever dirt the spyyagencies dug up to control non DS players.
This is why the DS ran fake opponents against whoever they chose to be president – they can't afford to lose the WH because the whole thing falls down without it. They had to rig the elections in a way that couldn't be proved, thus your No Names and your Mitts.
If this is true, I guess Reagan was the last president before the DS took control.
