Talk:2969: Vice President First Names

I mentioned 1122 in the description. Are there any other comics about election trends/rules? Well, 2383, of course. 172.71.182.150 14:33, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

In checking all names, surprised to see so many "né"s, but not overly surprised to see no "neé"s. (I mean, "Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton (née H. D. Rodham)" would have been one, of course, in a different trouserleg of time. But Harris stayed as "Harris", not taking/adding "Emhoff" from the person who may well become the first First Gentleman.) Interesting though. Had to resist adding "Dubya", "Ronnie" and "Rocky" nicknames, of course, as they were not the 'formal' nickname that the respective people prefered to go by. 172.70.90.130 16:29, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

Harris only actually met Emhoff in 2013, way after she started her political career - which I guess is why she didn't want to shake her 'brand' by switching her name up. The practise isn't nearly as automatic these days as it used to be. And re:other nicknames, I only mentioned Ike's cause as far as I know it's the case where it was embraced by his campaign the most. 172.70.115.103 22:10, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

Going from the beginning you're pretty much limited to Johns and a Levi prior to the chart. There a few potential Hanks and Bills, and a possible Ted more commonly referred to as Teddy. I've never heard anyone refer to Tom Jefferson or Chet A. Arthur. RegularSizedGuy (talk) 16:42, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

What about Hann? And, 'Sky' (Unless you decide to pronounce the latter more like "Schu". Because, if you did, those two together would fit them like a glove...) 172.68.186.157 17:03, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

Alright, it seems that somebody has removed my earlier comment protesting the ongoing genocide that Harris supports. Has this wiki fallen too? 172.70.90.130 17:09, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

A quick runthrough of article edits doesn't show anything of what you say, unless I've missed it as too subtle. But, I have to say, that the wording you use here is indicative of the problem being with your 'interpretation'. "Genocide" is a heavy allogation to make and such extraordinary claims would require extraordinary justification, not just talking points taken from the fast-and-loose fringes of public opinion. (Not to mention that if your political rivals were as wicked as that, then you'd be risking your life/freedom to oppose them. But, hey, you apparently have the free speech to say utter nonsense with!)172.70.86.173 17:33, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

OK, I checked it. Laser813 (talk) 19:20, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

I think they're talking about the Talk, rather than the article - comment added at 16:20, and removed in the edit at 16:29 (possible it was just an edit conflict (as opposed to a conflict edit...), since the subsequent update was not small).172.68.186.128 09:39, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

Seems like an opportunity was missed to point out how many presidents on the list have exactly 6 letters in their first name...Kamala, Donald, Donald, Barack, George, George, Ronald, Gerald, Lyndon, Dwight. It may be worth mentioning? 172.70.131.153
