Last President of the United States

The last President of the United States held office from as early as 2076 until the Great War in 2077.

Background
The last president assumed the presidency prior to 2076, following the impeachment of the prior president in 2075, ordering the Pacific division of the United States Navy to a Poseidon Oil rig, citing concerns over Chinese military presence being close to American oil reserves. Most of the information known about him comes from second-hand accounts by the Appalachian Enclave, Capitol Post, and Boston Bugle. While the exact affiliation he held is unknown, his party held a majority in at least the House of Representatives, as the Speaker of the House is listed as a member of his Cabinet.

In 2077, he disbanded the White House press corps and by March, had abandoned the White House, relocating to Control Station ENCLAVE roughly six months before the war. This was because, before or during his presidency, he joined the Enclave, a secret shadow government of high ranking government officials, military officers and powerful corporate interests. While the president went into hiding, his Cabinet remained in Washington, and the Cabinet Nuclear Alarm system set up in case of a required evacuation from a nuclear war. However, the system was tampered with, and most of the Cabinet members were removed. The Secretaries of the Interior and Treasury went to the Whitespring bunker alongside Secretary of Agriculture Thomas Eckhart, while the president remained on the Enclave oil rig. On the day of the Great War, at 9:26 in the morning, his executive code was authenticated and used in response to detected Chinese ICBMs.

At some point before the war, he was organizing a summit involving political and industrial leaders from the Appalachia Territory to discuss their success in automating local industry and businesses and how these efforts could be replicated across the nation. It is unknown where and if the summit went ahead.
